Drive a private Toyota Land Cruiser for seven days through Jordan’s greatest hits—Jerash, Madaba, Mount Nebo, the Dead Sea, Petra and Wadi Rum—combining comfort, local insight, and optional hot-air balloon or camel experiences. This private itinerary balances easy logistics with time to explore each site on your own terms.

Dust curls off the Land Cruiser’s tires as you leave Amman’s low hills for a week that moves from salt-flat quiet to rose-red canyons and desert moonscapes. The vehicle hums, the driver navigates highway and dirt road with equal confidence, and each roadside turn feels like a reveal: mosaic-strewn church floors, Ottoman-era stone houses, and a horizon that slides from green hills to ochre desert.
