Day 1 - Amman, Jordan
Check-in to your choice of hotel, carefully chosen for service, ambience, and a terrific location.

Day 2 - Amman / Discover Jerash and Ajlun castle
Often referred to as the ‘Pompeii of the East,’ Jerash is the best-preserved Roman provincial city in the world. Today’s escorted sightseeing tour includes in-depth touring through these extensive ruins. Then visit the amazing 12th century Saracen castle at Ajlun before returning to Amman for a free evening. Meals B

Day 3 - Amman / Along the Kings Way / Petra
Travel along the King’s Way to Madaba to marvel at Byzantine mosaics. See Mt. Nebo, traditional burial site of Moses and visit the ancient Crusader town of Kerak. Arrive in Petra#WHS#, Jordan’s most famous ancient city and one of the ‘New 7 Wonders of the World’. Check-in to your choice of hotel, the first Class Petra Crowne Plaza or the deluxe Mövenpick Petra Hotel, located directly across from the entrance to this World Heritage Site. Meals B

Day 4 - Explore Petra
Enjoy a full-day, unhurried, guided exploration through Petra, a spectacular architectural marvel and an important link in ancient caravan routes. The entire city is carved into the sides of a deep gorge, the only entrance through a narrow opening called the Siq. As you enter with your guide into the lost city of Petra from between these 100-foot cliffs, a remarkable vista unfolds: Temples, tombs, and dwellings chiseled out solid, rose-hued stone. Meals B

Day 5 - Petra / Wadi Rum – Land of Lawrence of Arabia / Amman
Depart Petra this morning and journey into the amazing desert landscapes of Wadi Rum. Explore by jeep in this remote region, where sandstone and granite mountains rise, sheer-sided, from wide sandy valleys to reach heights of 4,000 feet and more. For many visitors, this land is associated with the 1962 film, Lawrence of Arabia – the Peter O’Toole epic which recounted the dramatic exploits of the Englishman who fought here alongside King Faisal during the Arab Revolt of 1917. Continue your journey back to Amman. Our tour services end at the airport for your onward journey. Or let our travel experts assist you and your travel agent with arrangements to extend your stay at any of our fine hotels in Amman… or anywhere in the Middle East – or the world! Meals B
