I really enjoyed this India trip, so much to do and see! We went to places we would never have been on our own and that was all possible due to our CEO Manu. I would 100% book another trip through G adventures as I really enjoyed the whole experience. It was also a lovely group of likeminded people.

Amazing people and company to work with. We had some missed flights and changes, and they were overly accommodating. We loved having a private driver to take us around Jordan. Highly recommend them for your beautiful trip to Jordan.
Embark on an extraordinary journey through Jordan that combines the country's most breathtaking historical sites with the magic of a celestial spectacle. This unique "Nabatean Nights & Perseid Meteor Shower" tour is meticulously planned each year to ensure you are in the heart of the Wadi Rum desert during the peak activity of the stunning Perseid meteor shower. It offers a rare opportunity to experitheence Jordan's timeless wonders alongside an unforgettable night under a canopy of shooting stars, timed perfectly for optimal viewing.
Your adventure covers Jordan's essential highlights, allowing you to step back in time as you explore the magnificent rock-carved city of Petra, an ancient Nabatean marvel. You'll also have the chance to experience the unique sensation of floating effortlessly in the hyper-saline waters of the Dead Sea at the lowest point on Earth. The itinerary balances these iconic experiences with discovering Jordan's rich history and dramatic landscapes as you travel through the kingdom.
The true crescendo of the tour unfolds in the vast, silent beauty of Wadi Rum. After exploring its majestic sandstone mountains and sweeping red dunes by jeep, you'll prepare for the night's main event. Staying in a Bedouin camp chosen for its remoteness and minimal light pollution, you'll be perfectly positioned to witness the Perseid meteor shower. Imagine lying back on the desert sands, gazing up at the clear night sky as meteors blaze trails overhead – a truly magical experience deliberately scheduled as the tour's centrepiece.
The standard tour price is based on comfortable 4-star hotels, however, an upgrade to superior grade hotels is also available, which enhances the accommodation used in Amman, Petra and the Dead Sea while the unique stay in Wadi Rum remains consistent across both options.

My friend and I had a fantastic time on our trip. We were met by someone who helped us get the necessary paperwork, traveled to Wadi rum (we slept), stopped at a nice shop where we purchased beautiful scarves, and departed with our Wadi Rum local guide! Our guide was awesome, know all of the best spots to visit and photo spots as well! He was kind and attentive as I got sick at the beginning of our journey. We enjoyed staying at Sun Camp - the staff was so kind to us and generous in their efforts. We were fasting and they prepared food for us that night so we wouldn't be hungry. Our driver drove us to Petra (we slept), checked in to the hotel, and thoroughly enjoyed our guide who was also a local! We definitely benefited from his knowledge and connections! We enjoyed dinner in a cave and the following day our driver made arrangements for us to add an additional stop (for a cost). We were blessed to visit Jesus' baptism site before enjoying the amazing Dead Sea!
