The tour begins where the Levant’s layers meet: a humid breath of incense and traffic at Queen Alia Airport, a driver holding a card with your name, and a quiet sense of leaving ordinary time behind. Over the next seven days the landscape alternates between carved stone and open sky—Roman columns give way to the rose-red cliffs of Petra, which in turn fade into Wadi Rum’s vast dunes where evening wind arranges its own archaeology of ripples.
