Reserve your spot on the 6 Days Jordan History Private Tour All Inclusive today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Start Petra early
Begin your Petra day at first light to avoid midday heat and the biggest crowds; key monuments still require several kilometers of walking and stair climbs.
Bring a reusable water bottle
Bottled water is provided, but carrying a 1–2L refillable bottle keeps you hydrated between stops and reduces plastic waste.
Protect your skin
Jordan’s sun is strong year-round—use SPF 30+, a wide-brim hat, and lightweight long sleeves for daytime excursions.
Plan for uneven terrain
Expect rocky paths, loose sand, and steps—sturdy walking shoes with good tread make the difference, especially in Petra and Wadi Rum.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Support and traction for archaeological sites and desert tracks.
Reusable water bottle (1–2L)
Hydration is critical in Jordan’s dry climate and reduces plastic waste.
Sun hat and sunscreen
High UV exposure makes sun protection essential during daytime tours.

Light insulating layer
Nights—especially in Wadi Rum and at the Dead Sea—can be cool; a fleece or light jacket helps.
