Itinerary
Welcome to Amman - Jordan's buzzing capital, packed with bronze age ruins, art galleries and even a restored Roman theatre. AKA the perfect place to begin our adventure. Exchange hellos with your crew before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant.
Amman, Jordan
Amman is the capital city of the country of Jordan in the Middle East. Amman is one of the oldest still-inhabited cities on the planet, and a center of politics, culture, and blossoming commerce for its home country.
After breakfast, we’ll head out on a city tour with a Local Guide to fill you in on Amman's story. Check out the Citadel, the iconic Amphitheatre, and even the Archelogical museum. Then it’s off to the Iraq Al-Amir Women Association for a hands-on local activity and lunch. History, culture, and connection all in one day — not bad for a capital city, right?

Catch ya' later, Amman. Today we’ll roll out of the city and head north. Cue colonnaded streets and ancient drama — after a quick exploration of Jerash. Worked up an appetite? Good. Cuz for lunch, we'll settle in at Bait Al-Khairat, a popular spot famed for its delish local eats. Back in the capital by afternoon with free time to play it your way. Coffee crawl? Last-minute shopping? Feet up and chill? You choose.

Wakey wakey. Today we’ll head south and swap city streets for wide-open landscapes. Time to stretch the legs on the Shaq Al-Reesh Trail, walking through rugged canyons and wide valley views. We’ll refuel with a packed lunch — simple, fresh, and very welcome mid-walk. As the sun dips, we’ll arrive at Little Petra and settle in at Ammarine Camp. Tonight's dinner will be served Bedouin-style, shared around the table and full of local flavours. Then it’s tents, quiet desert skies, and a night that feels a world away from anywhere else.
Little Petra, Jordan
After breakfast, we’ll set off on the backdoor hike into Petra, following quiet desert paths framed by sandstone cliffs and wide-open views. Think changing colours, natural rock formations, and that slow build-up before the main event. We’ll continue exploring the site as it opens up in full, entering through the main gates and soaking it all in. Tonight, we’ll rest up at our hotel in Petra. Legs tired, camera roll full.
Petra, Jordan
Petra is a historical and archaeological city in the southern Jordanian governorate of Ma'an that is famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system. Another name for Petra is the Rose City due to the color of the stone out of which it is carved.
After breakfast, we’ll say goodbye to Petra and hit the road south. Next stop: wide-open desert. We’ll jump into a Bedouin jeep for a two-hour ride through Wadi Rum, stopping at spots like Siq Um Tawaqi, ancient inscriptions, and a few photo-worthy viewpoints along the way. Dinner and the night are spent at a desert camp — tents, stars, and that quiet-hits-different kind of vibe.

Wadi Rum, Jordan
It inscribed as a mixed natural and cultural site, features a varied desert landscape consisting of a range of narrow gorges, natural arches, towering cliffs, ramps, massive landslides and caverns.
After breakfast, we’ll leave the desert behind and settle in for the drive north. Dead sea time. We'll stop by at a resort for lunch and a swim in the Dead Sea — yes, floating is mandatory. By evening, we’ll be back in Amman, with an optional dinner at a local favourite if you’re keen.
Dead Sea, Jordan
The Dead Sea is a salt lake bordered by Jordan to the east and Israel and the West Bank to the west. It lies in the Jordan Rift Valley, and its main tributary is the Jordan River.

And just like that, our wonderful week in Jordan has come to an end.
