Private transfers and customizable pacing let travelers trade crowds for a more measured, local experience.

The first light in Amman catches the limestone of the Citadel like a promise—pale, ancient, and patient. A private driver slips through morning traffic and the city falls away, leaving terraced hills and olive groves as the road heads north to Jerash. Here, colonnades still lean toward the sky and the Roman streets move the visitor through marble theatres and temples that remember a different empire. The tour, done in five days with a private car and guide, stitches together Jordan’s most cinematic places—Jerash’s stone order, Petra’s rose-red façades, Wadi Rum’s sculpted desert, and the peculiar buoyancy of the Dead Sea—into a compact, comfortable loop.
