Day 1

Ahlan Wa Sahlan — Welcome to Jordan

Your Jordanian adventure begins with ease and warmth. As your flight touches down in Amman, your personal airport assistant greets you before immigration, helping you breeze through formalities. Outside, your English-speaking driver awaits to whisk you to your boutique hotel in the capital.

Once checked in, the day is yours to relax after the flight or step out to sample the local street food and vibrant culture that hums through the city.

Breakfast included
2 Nights in Amman— Choose from our curated Comfort, Deluxe, or Indulgence stays — all vetted for style, service, and location.

Day 2

Desert Castles and Downtown Amman

Today offers a taste of Jordan’s lesser-known treasures. Travel into the Eastern Desert to explore Qasr Al Azraq, Qasr Amra (a UNESCO site), and Qasr Al Kharanah — centuries-old desert castles once used by Umayyad princes. Frescoed walls, geometric patterns, and crumbling towers tell tales of Islamic life, long before tour buses arrived.

Returning to Amman, your afternoon brings a sweeping view from Citadel Hill, followed by the grand Roman Theatre and the bustling Souqs. End your day on Rainbow Street, a local favourite known for its colourful charm, quirky cafés, and rooftop spots with sunset views.

Breakfast included

Day 3

Madaba, Mount Nebo and The King’s Way to Petra

After breakfast, begin your journey south along the storied King’s Highway — an ancient trade route alive with history. Your first stop is Madaba, known for its 6th-century mosaic map of the Holy Land at St George’s Church — a masterpiece that once guided pilgrims and kings.

From there, gaze out from Mount Nebo, where Moses is said to have glimpsed the Promised Land. Pause in Wadi Mujib for dramatic canyon views, then explore the imposing stone walls of Kerak Castle — a Crusader fortress filled with secret passages and sweeping vistas.

By evening, arrive in the enchanting town of Petra and check into your hotel for a peaceful night beneath the stars.

Breakfast included
2 Nights in Petra- hotel category of your choice

Monastery, Petra

Day 4

Petra — Jordan’s Crown Jewel

Today is a moment you’ll never forget. Rise early to beat the crowds and step into Petra through the narrow Siq — a dramatic sandstone passage that opens suddenly to reveal the Treasury, glowing rose-pink in the morning light.

Your private guide will walk you through Petra’s hidden wonders: the Street of Facades, Royal Tombs, temples carved into cliffs, and ancient water channels once used by the Nabataeans.

For those feeling adventurous, the optional Monastery hike (800 steps, 1.5–2 hours) rewards with epic views and one of Petra’s most breathtaking monuments.
Prefer a smoother journey? Indulgence guests may opt for an electric golf cart service through the Siq.

Breakfast included

Wadi Rum

Day 5

Into the Wadi Rum Desert

From history to raw nature. This morning, journey south into Wadi Rum — a vast Martian-like wilderness of red sand dunes and towering granite mountains. It’s no wonder Hollywood films like The Martian and Dune were shot here.

With a local Bedouin driver, embark on a 4×4 desert expedition past rock bridges, petroglyphs, and wind-sculpted canyons. The silence here is almost spiritual.

Come sunset, settle into your luxury tented camp. Deluxe and Indulgence guests enjoy a private starlit dinner in the dunes — a magical end to the day.

Breakfast and Dinner are included
2 Nights in Wadi Rum -Accommodation tailored to your preferred travel style.

Day 6

Wadi Mujib Canyon and Arrival at the Dead Sea

Leave the desert behind and follow the winding road along the Dead Sea coastline. Depending on the season, stop for a short canyon walk in Wadi Mujib — a water trail (April–October, age 18+) that winds through towering sandstone cliffs and freshwater pools. It’s a wild and exhilarating way to connect with Jordan’s nature.

From there, descend to the Dead Sea — the lowest point on Earth — and check into your spa hotel. Spend the afternoon floating effortlessly in its mineral-rich waters, known for their healing properties since ancient times.

Breakfast included
2 Nights at the Dead Sea -Choose from Comfort, Deluxe, or Indulgence properties for your ultimate relaxation.

DEAD SEA EXPERIENCE

Day 7

Mud, Minerals and Meaningful Stillness

Today is dedicated to wellness and rejuvenation. Let the natural properties of the Dead Sea do their magic. Cover yourself in detoxifying black mud, soak in warm salt pools, or treat yourself to a spa ritual inspired by ancient practices.

Whether you opt for a gentle stroll along the shore or a restorative massage overlooking the water, this final full day invites you to pause, reflect, and simply be.

Breakfast included

Day 8

Ma’a Salamah — Farewell for Now

After a leisurely breakfast, your private driver will transfer you to Amman Airport. Your airport assistant will help with check-in and departure formalities.

As you leave Jordan behind, you take with you not just photographs, but stories, sensory memories, and the quiet transformation that travel brings.

What Our Travellers Say

Your Questions Answered

Jordan is best experienced from March to May and September to November — when temperatures are mild, the desert isn’t sweltering, and the light is golden for Petra photos. Spring brings wildflowers across Wadi Rum, while autumn makes for perfect Dead Sea swims and comfortable hikes in Wadi Mujib.

This isn’t a group tour with strangers and set schedules. This is your journey, on your terms. You’ll have a private English-speaking driver throughout and local expert guides at key sites like Petra and Amman — all tailored to your pace, preferences, and interests. No rushing, no crowds — just seamless, thoughtful travel with support at every step.

Absolutely. This itinerary was designed especially for those who may be new to Jordan or the region. You’ll experience the country’s most iconic highlights — Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea — with a curated mix of culture, nature, comfort, and safety. We balance guided exploration with downtime, and every transfer, hotel, and guide has been carefully selected to make your first experience unforgettable.

You’ll fly into Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) in Amman, Jordan’s capital. Popular airlines from Australia include Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad and Turkish Airlines — typically via one stop in the Middle East. Want help selecting the right flights to match your itinerary? Just ask — we’re happy to assist.

Yes — and that’s no accident. Our itinerary plans for early morning access to Petra, when the site is quiet and the light glows soft over the Treasury’s rose-red façade. You’ll be among the first to enter the Siq, capturing those magical first views without the midday crowds.

Wadi Rum is otherworldly. Picture vast red sandscapes, dramatic cliffs, ancient petroglyphs, and Bedouin hospitality under a starlit sky. It’s no wonder filmmakers chose it to represent Mars. On this trip, you’ll explore it by 4×4 with a local Bedouin guide, then unwind at your boutique desert camp — where comfort meets silence in the most magical way.

This journey offers gentle flexibility. Walks in Petra and Wadi Rum can be adapted to your comfort level, with plenty of breaks and optional hikes (like the Monastery trail). Travellers who prefer a slower pace or require assistance can opt for golf carts in Petra or skip certain sections — it’s your holiday, and we’ll tailor it accordingly.

You won’t exactly swim — but you will float. The high salt content makes it impossible to sink, creating a surreal, weightless sensation. Most hotels have private Dead Sea access with mud treatment areas, freshwater showers and spa facilities. Just don’t shave the day before… you’ll thank us later.
