You step off the coach before dawn, the air sharp and dry, and the Siq’s narrow walls begin to collect the day’s first light. By the time the Treasury appears—looming like an ancient stage set cut from living rock—there’s a hush among the group. This 3-day Jordan group tour moves with a clear rhythm: Petra’s carved streets and hidden monasteries, the lunar silence of Wadi Rum’s deserts, and the buoyant calm of the Dead Sea. It’s compact, curated, and built around some of Jordan’s most cinematic moments.

Adventure Tips
Carry the Jordan Pass or ticket confirmation
Petra requires an admission ticket—bring the Jordan Pass or printed confirmation to avoid delays at the visitor center.
Layer for desert nights
Wadi Rum gets cold after sunset; pack a warm mid-layer and a windproof shell for the camp.
Hydrate and protect from sun
High desert sun and canyon reflections intensify exposure—use SPF, a hat, and carry a refillable water bottle.
Comfortable footwear matters
Expect uneven stone steps and sandy tracks—sturdy hiking shoes or trail runners make long Petra walks and the jeep stopovers easier.

History
Petra was the Nabatean capital and a regional caravan hub; Madaba preserves Byzantine mosaics including the famous 6th-century map of the Holy Land.
Conservation
These sites are fragile—stick to marked paths, avoid touching fragile carvings, and minimize plastic use; water is scarce, so preserve it during desert segments.
