We will have some time to visit Madaba School of Mosaics. After a short drive, we arrive at Mount Nebo to retrace the steps of Moses and admire the spectacular view of the Promised Land just as he did over 2,000 years before. It is very easy to feel that you have arrived at someplace special. On a clear day Jerusalem, Jericho, and the Dead Sea can be seen. A memorial in Moses’ honor can be found at the entrance to the early Byzantine Christian church where Moses is believed to have died. End the day in Petra with dinner and overnight.
Day 3: Petra - Wadi Rum
Breakfast at the hotel then begins the day exploring the legendary Rose Red city of Petra. This city of the Nabataean’s was built over 2,000 years ago and lays hidden in a huge rocky mountain accessed via a high and narrow gorge. With monumental facades and spectacular buildings sculpted out of solid rock, this breathtaking site has been described by UNESCO as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage," and also one of the New 7 Wonders of the World. We will arrange your entrance fees and hire you a private English speaking site guide to explore the main attractions of the lower part of the city for 2.5 to 3 hours. You and the guide will start from the main gate all the way through the Siq to visit the Treasury, Street of Facades, the Theatre, all the way down to the Nymphaeum and Qaser El- Bent. Have lunch inside Petra at Al Basin restaurant then you have some free hours on your own to explore further. After, return to the main gate to meet our driver who will transfer you to Wadi Rum, enjoy the experience of camping, dinner and overnight.
Day 4: Wadi Rum - Dead Sea
Breakfast at the camp, then experience the solitude and magic of the desert landscape during one of the best rides of your life – on a 3-hour 4x4 safari. Towering castle-like mountains and beautifully colored cliffs can be seen in every direction, and you can easily imagine that Lawrence of Arabia might come galloping around the next corner on his camel. Experience the magic of the desert, the sand dunes and some of the ancient inscriptions, the rocky formations, and natural bridges. After, we continue to the Dead Sea for dinner and overnight at the Dead Sea.
Day 5: Dead Sea - Bethany - Amman
We will have free morning until around 12.00 noon in the hotel of the Dead Sea to enjoy the sea and the pools and then meet our driver who will drive to visit Bethany. This archaeological site is one of the most important biblical discoveries in the world. Excavations began in 1996 and have already uncovered more than 20 churches, caves and baptismal pools dating from the Roman and Byzantine periods. Archaeologists are assured this is where John the Baptist lived, Jesus was baptized, and the first five apostles met. The path leading to the Jordan River transform from a dry desert into a tropical oasis and it becomes clear why Prophet Jeremiah described it as "the jungle of the Jordan". After, we continue to Amman for dinner and overnight at 3* hotel.
Day 6: Amman - Jerash - Ajloun - Amman Airport
Depending on late departure, we leave Amman at 7.30 AM and continue to one of Jordan's MUST-SEE sites - Jerash - so well preserved that you can almost hear the banter of the merchants and the creaking of chariot wheels along the cobblestoned streets.
