    Amman to Petra – The Rose-Red City

    After breakfast at your hotel, around 7:30 AM your private driver will pick you up for the scenic drive south to Petra, approximately three hours through Jordan's striking desert landscapes. Upon arrival, begin your exploration of this legendary Nabataean city, rightfully recognized as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.

    Enter through the Siq, a dramatic narrow gorge stretching over one kilometer, its towering sandstone walls rising up to 80 meters on either side. As you emerge from the canyon, the iconic Treasury (Al-Khazneh) reveals itself in all its rose-pink grandeur — an awe-inspiring moment that never fails to impress. Continue deeper into the ancient city at your own pace, discovering elaborately carved royal tombs, the Roman-era colonnaded street, and the ancient amphitheater hewn directly from the rock face.

    Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant near the site. In the afternoon, explore additional highlights including the Street of Facades, the sprawling archaeological complex, and the Great Temple with its impressive Nabataean stonework. Around 4:00 PM, depart Petra and transfer to your hotel in the area. Overnight in Petra.

    Wadi Rum Jeep Safari & Dead Sea Relaxation

    After an early breakfast at your hotel, around 7:30 AM depart Petra and drive approximately one and a half hours south to the magnificent desert wilderness of Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon. This vast, otherworldly landscape of red-sand dunes, towering sandstone cliffs, and ancient rock carvings served as the setting for the film Lawrence of Arabia.

    Upon arrival, board a 4x4 jeep for a thrilling two-hour safari through the desert. Your Bedouin driver will take you through sweeping valleys, narrow gorges, and past ancient Nabataean rock inscriptions. At each stop, take time to hike, scramble over rock formations, and soak in the majestic panoramic views at your own pace. Enjoy a traditional Bedouin tea in the heart of the desert before concluding your safari.

    Around 1:00 PM, depart Wadi Rum and begin the approximately four-and-a-half-hour drive north to the Dead Sea, descending roughly 1,000 meters to the lowest point on Earth at 400 meters below sea level. Arrive by early evening and check in to your resort. Spend the rest of the evening floating effortlessly in the mineral-rich waters, relaxing by the pool, or treating yourself to a rejuvenating spa session. Overnight at the Dead Sea.

The therapeutic mud and mineral-rich environment make for a wonderfully relaxing start to the day.

    Check out from your hotel and meet your private driver for the transfer to Queen Alia International Airport in Amman, approximately one hour's drive. If you have a later flight, a day-use room can be arranged at an additional cost so you can relax in comfort before heading to the airport.

A moderate fitness level is recommended, and donkey or camel rides are available at additional cost for those who need assistance.

Is it safe to swim in the Dead Sea?

Floating in the Dead Sea is safe when basic precautions are followed. Avoid putting your face in the water, limit your time in the water to about 15-20 minutes per session, and rinse off with fresh water immediately afterward. Your resort will have showers available at the beach.

What is the best time of year for this tour?

Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) offer the most comfortable temperatures for sightseeing. Summer months can be extremely hot in Petra and Wadi Rum, while winter brings cooler temperatures and occasional rain, though the Dead Sea area remains relatively mild.

Can the itinerary be customized or adjusted?

Absolutely. As a private tour, the schedule is flexible and can be tailored to your preferences. Whether you'd like to add extra time in Petra, include a visit to Jerash or Mount Nebo, or adjust departure times, we can accommodate your requests.

Do I need a visa to visit Jordan?

Most nationalities can obtain a visa on arrival or through the Jordan Pass purchased online before travel. The Jordan Pass includes your visa fee and entry to over 40 attractions including Petra. We recommend checking the latest visa requirements for your nationality before departure.

What should I wear during the tour?

Lightweight, breathable clothing is recommended for desert and outdoor sightseeing. Bring layers for cooler mornings and evenings, especially in Wadi Rum. There is no strict dress code at the main tourist sites, though modest clothing is appreciated when visiting local communities.
