A seven-day private route through Jordan’s landmark landscapes: Roman Jerash, the carved city of Petra, the lunar Wadi Rum and floating time at the Dead Sea. This guided itinerary balances full-day exploration with cultural stays, including a Bedouin camp night.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the plane into Amman's dry dawn and the city exhales its mix of mosque calls, coffee stalls and taxi horns. Over seven days the country pulls you across time: Roman columns rise out of Jerash’s earth like a stage set, Nabatean carving squeezes sunlight through Petra’s Siq, and Wadi Rum’s rock faces lean into the wind as if to challenge you to climb them.
