We enjoyed our first trip with Explore on the Jordon Discovery tour . It covered everything thing that we wanted to experience in Jordan and the 2 days in Petra were essential as there is a lot to see and do.
The tour leader Saleh was knowledgeable, caring and very entertaining. He gave us an insight into Jordanian / Bedouin culture.
He and the driver paced the route / schedule very well.
Jordon is a safe and friendly country and the people were welcoming. The food was very good

Uncover Jordan’s treasures on this 8-day journey from Amman to the Dead Sea. Step back in time among the Roman ruins of Jerash and Umm Qais, then head south to the iconic rose-red city of Petra. Marvel at the vast desert landscapes of Wadi Rum on a thrilling 4x4 safari and explore the Crusader stronghold of Shobak Castle. If travelling between April and October, you’ll trek through the dramatic Wadi Mujib canyon before ending with two relaxing days floating in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. It’s a perfect blend of ancient sites, natural wonders, and unforgettable scenery.
Jordan has been on my bucket list for a long time and this trip ticked all my boxes! It was eye-opening as we visited all the UNESCO sites of Jordan and visiting the castles, church ruins and learning about the influence from the Bronze Age, Roman, Byzantine and Umayya. The preserved Mosaics were a highlight too! Despite what is going on in neighbouring countries, we felt very safe. Sadly, due to the ongoing conflict is having an impact on tourism and locals, so the Jordanians needs us more than ever! This did mean we had most of the sites to ourselves such as the baptism site & the Treasury!
We stayed at Mujib Chalet which meant we were away from the big hotels and was able to enjoy the Dead Sea for ourselves, and it was only a few mins walk from our chalet. The sunset here was magical! The food were delicious, everyone was catered for (veggies and meat), the humous was the best we ever tried! We also visited during the harvest of olives (happens from late Oct- early Dec) so be prepared to get fresh olives wherever you go :)

This 11-day trip through Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories along with Jordan is the perfect tour for people who want to combine visits to important historical and religious sites with some cultural and scenic experiences as well. The tour has time to explore the buzz of the city and beaches of Tel Aviv while also visiting Tiberias and touring Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth and many important religious and historical sites and monuments. The tour also includes a visit to Masada Fortress and the Dead Sea where you can bob on top of this remarkably salty Sea, the lowest place on Earth. The tour also visits the famous Sea of Galilee and enjoys a wine tasting experience in the hills of the Golan Heights.
Leaving Israel behind we cross the border into Jordan where we visit some of Jordan's tourist highlights including the Roman Ruins in Jerash, the 'lost city' of Petra, Biblical Mount Nebo and the famous mosaic map of the Holyland in Madaba.
Accommodation is on a 3-4 star basis with upgrades available to deluxe 4-star and 5-star hotels.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to continued unrest we have temporarily suspended this tour in Israel. Reservations are still being accepted for later travel dates. Should the situation continue, we will contact you approximately 8 weeks prior to departure to discuss new dates/cancellation options (though you can be assured of a full refund if we are unable to operate the tour).

Discover the wonders of Jordan on this 6-day adventure from Amman to the Dead Sea. Explore the capital’s citadel, souks and street food before journeying via Mount Nebo, Madaba and Umm ar-Rasas to the rose-red city of Petra. Wander through the Siq to the Treasury, hike to the Monastery and enjoy optional evening experiences. Travel by 4x4 through Wadi Rum’s spectacular desert, then visit Crusader-era Shobak Castle. Trek Wadi Mujib’s dramatic canyon (seasonal) before floating in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. A perfect mix of history, landscapes and culture in one unforgettable journey.
This was a great itinerary, although an extra day in Petra would be helpful especially when you are battling heat. To have time to actually use the pool at the 'village' hotel would be incredible. We came in around 10-11pm and were out by 7 am the next morning.
Also, you really need to deal with the 'extra' activities. We came in early to do the Desert Castles add-on and were told we had to wait to talk to our tour director - who we didn't see until 6 pm that evening when it was too late. (when we asked about it before going we were told to talk to our tour director when we got there)
