      Exploring Amman And Jerash

      Our journey begins with a scenic drive north from Amman to Jerash, also known as the โ€™Jewel of the North.โ€™ This expansive site is renowned for its remarkably well-preserved examples of Roman architecture, which are among the best in the world outside of Italy. With a continuous history of human occupation dating back more than 6,500 years, Jerash is a testament to grand Roman urbanism found throughout the Middle East. Over the past 70 years, excavations and renovations have revealed a magnificent example of ancient city life, which was once hidden under sand for centuries.

      Returning from Jerash, weโ€™ll spend the afternoon exploring Amman, also known as the โ€™white cityโ€™ due to its abundance of white limestone buildings. Ammanโ€™s rich history stretches back for millennia, with numerous excavations and renovations uncovering remnants from the Neolithic period, Hellenistic era, late Roman to Arab Islamic Ages, and beyond. Our tour of Amman will include a visit to the Citadel, which was once home to the ancient Temple of Hercules, as well as the Umayyad Palace and the Byzantine Church.

  • Day 8 Mosaics, Castles & Wadis En-Route To Petra

      Mosaics, Castles & Wadis En-Route To Petra

      Today, weโ€™ll say goodbye to Amman and embark on a scenic drive to Petra via the Kingโ€™s Highway. The journey will take us through some stunning landscapes, including deep Wadis, olive groves, and remote rural villages. Along the way, weโ€™ll stop in Madaba to visit the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George, famous for its 6th Century Byzantine mosaic map of the Holy Land and other biblical sites. Weโ€™ll also detour to Mt. Nebo, believed to be the burial place of the prophet Moses, for breathtaking views of the Holy Land.

      As we continue our journey, weโ€™ll cross several deep Wadis, including the awe-inspiring Wadi al-Mujib, where the road winds through olive groves before ascending up the side of a breathtaking 1-kilometer deep canyon. Weโ€™ll also visit Kerak Castle, a well-preserved Crusader fortress built in the 12th Century on the ancient Egypt-Syrian caravan route. Originally built in 1132 AD by the Crusader King Baldwin 1 of Jerusalem, the castle fell to Saladin in 1188 AD. To this day, it remains an impressive structure with commanding views over the surrounding hills and plains.

      After a full day of sightseeing, weโ€™ll finally arrive in Petra, where weโ€™ll assist you in checking into your hotel. Youโ€™ll have the evening free to relax and explore.

  • Day 9 Exploring Petra, Camping In Wadi Rum
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Exploring Petra, Camping In Wadi Rum

      Today, weโ€™ll dedicate our time to exploring the Nabatean site of Petra, an ancient city that was once the capital of the Nabataean commercial empire until it was conquered by the Romans in 106 AD. 

      Weโ€™ll have the majority of the day to explore this remarkable city, starting with a 2-3 hour guided tour followed by free time to explore independently. Our tour will begin by traversing the Siq, which rises 200 meters above us and narrows to just two meters wide in some sections. Keep an eye out for the ancient Nabatean water channel, which is still visible on one wall, and remnants of the terracotta pipes that brought water into the city. Suddenly, the Khazneh (Treasury), one of Petraโ€™s most famous sights, will come into view as we turn a corner. Our guide will explain how this and the other buildings here are primarily elaborate facades carved into the rock from the top down, as well as discuss the spiritual significance of the building style.

      From the Treasury, the valley opens out, and youโ€™ll see tombs carved into the rock on both sides, glimpses of the ruined Roman amphitheatre, and colonnaded streets. During your free time, you can hike up a steep and narrow winding gorge to the towering Monastery, which is 50 meters high and 45 meters wide, offering breathtaking views of the Wadi Aruba desert and Jordan Valley. Another climb takes you to the High Place of Sacrifice and Lion Fountain. This is a full and tiring exercise, but a rewarding day touring one of the worldโ€™s most famous ancient sites. Walking distances today are a minimum of 3km through the Siq to the Treasury and back and a few kilometers to the Monastery and back (over 800 steps up and down).

      For those with less mobility or who are concerned about the distance, horse carriages are available for around (USD 28) to take you on the 1.2km journey through the Siq to the Treasury and back again at an agreed time. However, itโ€™s not recommended to ride the horses available. Donkeys are available for the steps up to the Monastery, and we suggest using them on the way up, not down.

      Later in the afternoon, weโ€™ll leave Petra and drive into the spectacular desert scenery of Wadi Rum, where friendly Bedouin hosts will welcome us to a comfortable camp beneath towering rocks and cliffs. Weโ€™ll spend the evening and night relaxing at the camp, gazing at the stars, and enjoying a delicious traditional Jordanian meal. This will be a perfect opportunity to unwind after a full day of exploring Petra and to appreciate the natural beauty of Jordanโ€™s desert landscape.

  • Day 10 A Jeep Safari In Wadi Rum & A Swim In The Dead Sea
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      A Jeep Safari In Wadi Rum & A Swim In The Dead Sea

      After breakfast, weโ€™ll set off on a Jeep safari to explore the stunning desert and mountains of Wadi Rum. The towering rust-colored rocky โ€™jebelsโ€™ here awed TE Lawrence during his visits in the 1917-18 Arab Revolt and were later made famous in the film Lawrence of Arabia. Leaving Wadi Rum, weโ€™ll drive north up the banks of the Dead Sea, one of the most remarkable places on earth. The regionโ€™s dramatic natural beauty and spiritual significance make it one of the worldโ€™s most awe-inspiring landscapes. 

      The Dead Sea receives several incoming rivers, including the River Jordan, and is over 400 meters below sea level, making it the lowest point on earth. The water is land-locked and has nowhere to go, so it evaporates, leaving behind a rich cocktail of salts and minerals that supply industry, agriculture, and medicine with some of their finest products. The Dead Sea is flanked by mountains to the east and the rolling hills of Jerusalem to the west, giving it an almost otherworldly beauty. During our journey, weโ€™ll stop to enjoy a unique โ€™swimโ€™ in the intensely salty waters. Normal swimming is not possible, but itโ€™s easier (and more photogenic!) just to float, sit or lie in the water.
