Destinations and Experiences in Jordan
Amman
The beautiful capital city of Jordan is a mix of the ancient with the modern. Start your journey here and experience one of the largest ancient Roman theatres in the world, with a seating for 6000 people. Visit the citadel, which offers an amazing bird’seye view of the city where you can see the blend of modern and ancient architecture.
Take a walk through downtown Amman and experience the life of the locals. Visit the souks, spice and vegetable markets and enjoy some traditional falafel and hummus.
Spend a day in Jerash, 45km north of Jordan and marvel at the one of the best preserved provincial Roman towns in the world.
Petra
Probably the most famous site in Jordan, Petra is not only a UNESCO world heritage site, but also considered one of the new seven wonders of the world. This 2000yr old city of the Nabateans is a breath-taking sight. The Nabateans were admired for the refined culture, massive architechture and ingenious complex of dams and water channels.
Going to Petra is a journey into ancient times, and taking the main walk from the Siq to the Treasury allows you to not only see some of the beautiful ancient architechture along the way, but also marvel at the natural geography of the stunning gorge.
We recommend spending at least 2-3nights in Petra and so that you can also visit at night, when the route and treasury is lit up with lanterns, or visit in the early morning to beat the crowds.
In addition, Petra has many different hiking trails that you can enjoy, including getting to the Treasury from Little Petra.
While in Petra, you can also enjoy cooking classes, a traditional Bedouin dinner and star gazing, Knafeh Making, Silver making amongst other experiences.
Wadi Rum
Wadi Rum has served as the iconic backdrop for some of the most iconic scenes in film history from Lawrence of Arabia to Star Wars and Dune.
Also known at Valley of the Moon, this outstanding desert landscape with many gorges, arch mountains, unique rock formations and red dunes, is a must-visit when in Jordan.
Home to the nomadic Bedouin tribe, this is a place to marvel at the vast landscapes, and the amazing night skies while also exploring the ancient rock carvings and archeological sites.
The perfect location for a blend of adventure, history and relaxation.
The Dead Sea
Located 427m below sea level and with salt levels upto 10 times saltier than the sea, the Dead Sea with its incredible buoyant waters mean that you can enjoy floating without any effort as you give yourself that much needed rest and rejuvenation.
And to add to the ‘spa’ experience, have a black mud body mask which together with the mineral rich waters of the Dead Sea have been found to have amazing health benefits including revitalising your skin.
Another nearby attraction is the mineral rich waterfall and hot springs of Hammamat Ma’in (Ma’in Hot Springs).
Aqaba and the Red Sea
The only coastal city in Jordan, Aqaba lies along the Red Sea and offers some amazing snorkelling and diving in the Aqaba Marine Reserve.
