Details

This 12-day trip to Jordan is a great way to appreciate all the country has to offer. We visit some of the less explored archaeological sites, stay in lodges and cabins in nature reserves run by Jordan's Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature away from the usual tourist centres, try home cooked food and of course visit all the main highlights such as Petra, Wadi Rum and Jerash along the way.

Highlights

  • Enjoy two full days in Petra, the Red Rose City
  • Take a four hour 4x4 tour of Wadi Rum
  • Visit desert castles, steeped in centuries of history
  • Explore the Roman city of Jerash
  • Take in views of the Sea of Galilee from Gadara ruins at Umm Qais
  • Spot migratory birds in the Azraq Wetlands
  • Float in the Dead Sea in a quiet spot away from most hotels
  • Visit all six of Jordan's Unesco World Heritage Sites

Included in Price

  • All breakfasts and five evening meals are included on this trip. When not half board, we usually eat in local restaurants and the leader arranges bookings for those in the group who would like to join. We suggest you budget around 20 Jordanian dinars (US$28) per non-included meal. If you are vegetarian, please note that main meals are limited in choice; however, meze is almost always available in restaurants and is a good, filling vegetarian choice. There is a good selection of seafood available by the Red Sea. At the Wadi Rum camp, we enjoy a traditional dinner called zarb, which is cooked underground. This consists of rice with a selection including chicken, lamb and vegetables. Vegetables are cooked separately from the meat. Alcohol is available in Jordan, but not widely. Many hotels do not sell alcohol but will often allow it to be brought in from elsewhere. It is best to plan ahead if you’ll want a drink, your tour leader will be able to tell you what’s possible and may be able to arrange a stop at a supermarket or liquor store (depending on location). In Petra, the unique Cave Bar in Petra Guesthouse is open to the public. A less expensive option is the bar in the Petra Palace Hotel which is also open to all.
