Full description

Explore some of Jordan's most spectacular sites on a 2-day, private tour from Amman. 

Day 1: Amman - Petra

Depart Amman and travel south to Petra. Founded by the Nabateans, Petra is considered one of the wonders of the world. Located 139 miles (225 kilometers) from Amman, Petra was carved in stone more than 2,000 years ago.

It dominated the trade routes of ancient Arabia. Upon arrival, walk the narrow path of the Siq to discover the main entrance to the city. At the end of the Siq, see the Treasury (al-Khazneh), which was believed to hold countless treasures. Continue to the monastery and Altar of Sacrifice. Then, transfer to Wadi Rum in the afternoon. Spend the night in a Bedouin camp and enjoy dinner and some nighttime activities.

Day 2: Wadi Rum - Dead Sea

After breakfast, drive to Wadi Rum by 4WD jeep. Wadi Rum ("Valley of the Moon") is where the legendary film "Lawrence of Arabia" was filmed. Marvel at the unique shape of the mountain as it rises from the rose-red sand of the desert. See towering cliffs of brownish, reddish, and golden colors.  Then transfer to the Dead Sea, famous for the biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Located 400 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is one of Jordan's most spectacular sites. Marvel at the calm waters glinting in the scorching sun.

Legendary for its high concentration of salt and minerals, the Dead Sea is therapeutic and provides for a unique swimming experience. After some free time to swim, return to your hotel in Amman.

The trip was beyond awesome. Everything was great. The organisation and the services provided. Mr Murad our guide and logistic manager was the best part of the trip. He was so courteous and exceptional. He took care of all things and made our two days the best. Special thanks to him.

Our driver Murad made everything easy for us. He arranged everything (accommodation in dessert, transportation, informations and local guides). He was kind and willing to communicate with us and to share with us information about the areas we were passing. We had enough time in Petra to see most of this huge sight. He also offered us extra alternatives out of the program (we extended a bit our Petra visit and went to Aqaba for snorkeling) and he was always willing to serve us the best way (he even brought us a lunch box after Petra visit to have it on the way and save some time). Just keep in mind that this tour contains some extra costs (eg dead sea resort) which cannot be skipped and I would prefer to have it included in the price to be more clear.

I couldn’t recommend this trip enough!! My trip with JTT ended today and I can’t praise the organisation enough! So much was packed into 2 days yet nothing felt rushed. The itinerary and timing from pick up to drop off was on point. Murad was our driver for the 2 days. The private Transport was so clean, spacious, modern and even had WiFi! Murad was friendly, knowledgable and a good communicator from pre-tour communication to end you really felt comfortable the entire time. Reaching Petra around 10:30ish. The time we reached there was imperative to avoid the afternoon heat and the growing tour crowds! Even though we had a set time to be back we had a good few hours and our goal of hiking to the Monastery was achieved with plenty of time. Wadi Rum was the part I was most looking forward to, it started with a jeep tour Murads timing for getting us to these sites ahead of the “crowd” was impeccable! His skills with the iPhone meant we got some great action shots for our memories.
