A week-long circuit through Jordan’s most iconic landscapes: Roman Jerash, mosaic Madaba, the carved city of Petra, Lawrence-era Wadi Rum and the buoyant Dead Sea. Expect guided walks, jeep routes and a mix of hotels and a desert camp.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the vehicle in the cool curve of the Siq and the sandstone throat of Petra exhales—crimson walls closing, narrowing, then opening onto the Treasury like the stage of an ancient world. Over the next seven days the country pushes and softens around you: Roman colonnades in Jerash, pine-sloped ruins at Ajloun, the basalt outlines of Karak, and the sharp, wind-sculpted sandstone of Wadi Rum where night presses a vault of stars.

Conservation
Protect archaeological sites by staying on marked paths and avoiding touching carvings; water is scarce—use hotel resources sparingly and pack out waste where possible.

Hydrate early and often
Carry 2–3 liters of water daily—desert heat and long walks (Petra, Wadi Rum) dehydrate quickly.
Sun protection is non-negotiable
Wide-brim hat, high-SPF sunscreen and sunglasses will make long outdoor days comfortable and safe.
Sturdy shoes for Petra’s terrain
Choose grippy, broken-in hiking shoes—sandstone steps and loose scree are common in archaeological sites.
Float carefully in the Dead Sea
Avoid shaving or open cuts before entering and rinse thoroughly after; water stings and can irritate.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Provide grip and ankle support on Petra’s stone steps and Wadi Rum’s rocky tracks.
Sun hat & sunglasses
Protects against intense sun during daytime excursions and desert jeep tours.
