Itinerary

1. Day 1: Arrival at Amman Airport to Amman Hotel

   • Upon arrival at Queen Alia Airport, our representative will meet you at the exit gate.

   • Transfer (about 50 minutes) to Amman, the capital of the country, stretching over 19 hills.

   • Short drive around to get an impression of this modern city before your escort takes you to the hotel.

   • Check-in, and spend the remainder of the day at leisure on your own.

2. Day 2: Amman to Petra to Amman

   • At 07:30 am, get picked up from the hotel lobby and drive 2.5 hours via the Desert Highway to the rock city Petra, Jordan's main attraction and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Petra was established around the 6th century B.C. by the Nabataean Arabs; a nomadic tribe settled in the area. With a sophisticated water supply and distribution system, the city could prosper, and the Nabateans founded a commercial empire that extended into Syria and controlled the main caravan routes at that time.

   • Meet your private guide at the Visitors Centre and start the tour on horseback or on foot to the Siq, the narrow canyon with some votive niches.

   • At the end of this gorge, you will see the most beautiful monument of Petra, the Treasury, also known as Al Khazneh.

   • Continue along the Street of Facades, the Royal Tombs and Pharaoh's Castle.

   • Free time on your own before you return, in the afternoon, to your Amman hotel for overnight.

3. Day 3: Departure

   • Have breakfast and check out by 12:00 noon, latest.

   • Transfer to Amman Airport to say farewell and board your flight.
