This eight-day private tour of Jordan involves discovering the important historical as well as mythical sights of the country. Starting from Amman, the capital of the country, this trip will take you to Madaba, Mount Nebo, Jordan River and Dead Sea before coming to an end in the capital.
The major highlight of this trip is the Christian heritage of Jordan. Travel with us to see the place from where Prophet Moses gazed at the promised land before he died. Visit Bethany, a village that comes up five times in the New Testament, and drive south via the Kings’ Highway to visit the Moses Springs.
Also included is a trip to the legendary lost city of Petra. For more details, please scroll down.
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.
Another wonderful trip with World Expeditions. In addition to the expected highlights of Petra, Wadi Rum, snorkelling in the Red Sea and floating in the Dead Sea, the unexpected delights of visiting a local family at Um Qais (and cooking/dining with them), the expansive Roman ruins at Jerash and our extraordinary driver Firas made this trip wonderful.
The small additional cost of having a representative meet us at the airport and guide us through immigration was well worth it. The process was very quick and smooth.
We would thoroughly recommend this trip.

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 is a fabulous way to get to know the history and culture of Jordan.

The itinerary was wonderfully varied and we saw and did so much. It was all pulled together seamlessly for us by Ayman our very knowledge, experienced and helpful CEO.
