Itinerary - Jordan 360°

Roundtrip flights are not included in the package, so you can choose from where and when you want to fly. Check-in to your hotel in Amman and then it is time to start this trip right, with food of course! Tonight will be your welcome dinner where you will try out some specialities of the local cuisine.

It is an early start to make the most of the day, and you're off to go float in the Dead Sea to tick off that bucket list. The Dead Sea water is ten times saltier than the ocean making it much more dense, and as a result people swimming in the water that are less dense in comparison are more buoyant. Sinking won't be an option but a rejuvenating natural mud bath could be!

Let the adventure begin! It is time to hike the Wadi Mujib, a natural reserve that flows into the Dead Sea. You will be trekking against the river current, clambering over the rocks (so be prepared to get wet) until the grand finale....a dip in the impressive waterfall! There are several routes of varying difficulty, so the group can decide what works best for them together 😊

It is an early start today because today you will walk several kilometers towards Petra! Kerak Castle is the second largest castle in the region and, after the Syrian one, is the most important crusader castle in the Middle East. It was considered virtually impregnable, the most strategic place of the country. Its European, Byzantine, and Arabic styles, make it one of a kind.

Siq al-Barid is located a few miles from Petra, where you will find the structures similar to the architecture in Petra, but smaller. The atmosphere takes you back in time, thanks to the ancient divinities depicted in the stone. Now it’s time to discover the handcrafted stalls, souvenirs and local products made by the Bedouins, Petra here we come!

This city will leave you breathless! A beautiful narrow gorge leads you to the famous Treasury, a carved stone structure, built to house the Areta III tomb. Continue your visit by entering the Street of Facades, where more than 40 tombs can be found carved into the rocks. After that, you are off to the top of the Jebel Madbah and then down to see temples, tombs, a palace and a Byzantine Church, famous for its floor mosaics. The ancient Theater boasts a capacity of around 3,000! In the old Roman part of the city, you can admire the Great Temple, dedicated to the Nabatean divinities, Qasr al-Bint ruins, the palace of Pharaoh's daughter and the medieval castle ruins. Along the path that leads to the Monastery, you will see the biggest monument of the entire site: the Winged Lions Temple.

On to more adventure, Wadi Rum here we come! Wadi Rum is an amazing desert surrounded by red coloured rocks and impressive mountains. From the Visitor Center, you are off to explore the desert of Lawrence of Arabia by Jeep. Khazali Canyon is one of the most unique places of the Wadi Rum rocky desert. It’s a canyon, also known as Siq, where the inner walls are covered with numerous Nabatean inscriptions and carvings. The extraordinary Um Fruth Bridge, a suspended rock bridge in the middle of the desert, is one of the most photographed spots in Jordan. After an intense day, it will be time for a typical Bedouin dinner, a chance to star watch in the evening (shooting stars are often spotted), and then you will be sleeping in a Bedoiun tent for the night.

The last stop before heading back to Amman is a must because you deserve a little relaxation!. Today is a rest day at a beach with golden sand and crystal clear water, ideal for snorkelers. You'll have plenty of options to keep you entertained: sailing, windsurf, kitesurf, jet-ski or the beloved banana boat.

You will leave early in the morning to reach Amman, ready to discover the secrets of this fascinating city! Old Amman was built on 7 hills like Rome, and boasts Roman ruins, the Temple of Hercules and the Archeological National Museum. From a panoramic lookout point, you will get to admire the Roman theatre, the public square with its fountain and Odeon, the amphitheatre where musical performances are performed every night!

Jabal Amman is a modern district just a few minutes away from the centre. On your way there you will stop at the King Abdullah mosque, the only mosque you can visit in the city. Shopping in Amman is a must, and you can find goods ranging from international designer clothes to hand made, locally produced items like precious stones and metals.

This is Amman's most vibrant street! Spend your last hours in Jordan hopping from cafes to souvenir shops and have some fun!

Check-out and farewell. It is time to say goodbye until your next WeRoad adventure!😊
