Jordan 360°: Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea
The trip in a nutshell
Jordan is one of those bucket list destinations that everyone should visit at least once. That's because Jordan simply has it all: a fascinating culture, priceless treasures, remains of ancient civilisations as well as a beautiful landscape.
Our group travel will start from Amman, the lively capital that will give us a first taste of real Jordan; we will then have fun like children in the gorges at Wadi Mujib and enjoy the beneficial water of the Dead Sea before travelling south along the Road of the Kings, passing by Kerak Castle. Our final destination will be the real treasure of this country: Petra, the lost city, one of the seven wonders of the modern world. Then it's the desert: the immense Wadi Rum will see us spend a night in a tented camp, have dinner with the Bedouins and race on the sand in a 4x4 – it will certainly be an adventure we'll never forget! After a stop by the Red Sea to explore its underwater gems, we'll round things off back in Amman, where we'll get lost in its vibrant souk.

The travel coordinators
Our travel coordinators are chosen because they are people like you. Not only are they the best travel buddy you could hope for, but they're trained professionals guaranteed to show you a travel experience like never before
Info to know
Staff
Our trips are led by a Travel Coordinator who has been specifically trained by us to lead group travels to ensure you have the best time. A WhatsApp group with all travel participants will be created two weeks prior to departure by your Travel Coordinator.
Luggage
Backpacks are mandatory to allow easy transfers - we recommend a 45L backpack for our trips.
Seasonality
The paths of Wadi Mujib (day 2) are closed from October to March due to the weather. Alternatively, the coordinator will propose alternative activities such as: the visit of Jerash, an ancient Roman city; the visit of Madaba and its imposing mosque; a trek to Mount Nebo. In the Whatsapp group, the actual replacement activity will be defined together with the group.
Local culture
During Ramadan, from February 28th, 2025 to March 29th, 2025, our itinerary may be adjusted due to changes in the opening hours of public places. We'll rely on packed lunches and dine in private areas during the day, as part of our commitment to respecting local traditions and immersing ourselves more deeply in the culture.
