ITINERARY
JORDAN INSIGHT – Private Tour
Jerash – Madaba – Mount Nebo – Petra – Wadi Rum – Dead Sea (1 night Amman, 2 nights Petra, 1 night Dead Sea)
Day 1: Arrive Amman
Arrival at Queen Alia International Airport, where our representative will assist you with all customs and immigration procedures. Your visa has been arranged and collected on arrival. Transfer to hotel in Amman for dinner and overnight.
Day 2: Jerash – Madaba – Mount Nebo – Petra
Guided tour of Jerash. The site is one of best preserved Roman Cities in the world, often referred to as “Rome away from Rome”. Enter the city through the monumental south gate and then make your way up the ‘Street of Columns’ (the Roman Cardo) 600 meters north from the Oval Plaza. See marketplace, temple of Zeus, the Omayyad residential quarter and 4th century cathedral. Drive south via the scenic Kings Highway to Madaba known as the City of Mosaics. Visit the Greek Orthodox Church of St George, to view the 6th century Byzantine mosaic map of the Holy Land showing Jerusalem and other holy sites. Continue to Mount Nebo where Moses viewed the Promised Land and the location where Moses was buried. See the serpentine cross which symbolises a serpent taken by Moses into the desert. The panoramic view encompasses the Jordan River valley, Dead Sea, Jericho and the Holyland. Arrive Petra by late afternoon – early evening. Dinner and overnight at Hotel in Petra.
Day 3: Petra – Wadi Rum
After breakfast visit ancient Nabatian city of Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Ride on horseback (optional) to the entrance of the siq, approx. 600 meters, then walk through a narrow chasm from where the spectacular sight of Petra will be revealed. Your two-hour guided tour of the lost city of Petra is up to the famous treasury. When the guided tour is over you may stay longer to wonder further and explore. Petra is also known as the rose-red city, a name it gets from the wonderful colour of the rock from which many of the city’s structures were carved. Unknown to the World, except to the local Bedouins, until 1812 when a Swiss explorer named Johannes Burckhardt set out to ‘rediscover’ Petra. He dressed up as an Arab and convinced his Bedouin guide to take him to the lost city. After this, Petra became increasingly known in the West as a fascinating and beautiful ancient city and began attracting visitors until this day. It is here were the final sequence of the film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was made. Afternoon tour of Wadi Rum, known as Valley of the Moon. The landscape of Wadi Rum with its immensity, colour and awe-inspiring shapes creates an almost supernatural atmosphere. It is here where the film Lawrence of Arabia was made and the actual location where T.E Lawrence set his camp, whose book “The Seven Pillars of Wisdom” was named after the seven natural columns varying in height on route to wadi rum. View the amazing desert landscape and rock formations, inscriptions, canyons and sand dunes in a 4×4 vehicle. Return back to Petra for dinner and overnight. OR overnight in Wadi Rum in deluxe en-suite tent with campfire dinner.
Note: If preferred may stay overnight in the desert of Wadi Rum at a campsite in deluxe tent under the stars. Or in “The Martian Tent” for a unique experience!
Day 4: Petra – Dead Sea
Transfer from Petra to the Dead Sea. Day is free at leisure to relax and enjoy swimming or “floating” in the therapeutic salty water at the lowest point on earth, a truly unique experience! A natural wonder with buoyant waters enables one to float in its saline waters which has ten times more salt than regular sea water. The high salt and mineral content along with the mud from its shores have many healing benefits for any skin problems, muscle aches, back pain, arthritis and more. Due to low humidity and elevated atmospheric pressure, the air has a high content of oxygen and magnesium which makes breathing a lot easier. Dinner and overnight at hotel, Dead Sea.
Day 5: Departure
Transfer to Amman airport for departure.
If preferred, additional nights are possible at the Dead Sea!
