ITENERARY IN DETAIL
Be guided on horseback to the lost city and The Siq, a winding fissure through immense overhanging cliffs that takes you to el Khazneh. This is one of the most elegant remains of antiquity, carved out of the solid rock from the side of a mountain, and marks the start of your journey through hundreds of Petra’s carved and built structures, soaring temples, elaborate royal tombs, a carved Roman theatre and burial chambers.
Join a local Bedouin for a jeep ride into the desert’s lunar landscape and the less-visited sites en route to Jebel Burdah. Check in to your camp for lunch and a camel trek then, as day turns to night, sense the dramatic change in temperature and the desert’s colour palette while the Bedouin prepare the fire and a sumptuous meal. Enjoy an evening around the campfire in the luxury Star Lounge, looking up at constellations, shooting stars and the Milky Way.
Travelling with your guide, make your way towards the northern region of Jordan, passing through the vast expanse of desert landscape scattered with ancient fortresses, castles and palaces. Learn the fascinating history and unique stories of each one as you explore their ruins.
You’ll embark on a 2-hour morning hike with your local guide to view Wadi Araba. En route, you’ll find magnificent sandstone and limestone formations, including beautiful views of the nature reserve. You’ll then be transferred to visit crusader castle in Shoback before you continue to Petra.
According to tradition, Mount Nebo is the mountain from which the prophet Moses looked over into the Promised Land, and indeed, when the weather is kind you can see Jerusalem about 60 kilometres away. South of Amman you will find Madaba, a 4000-year-old archaeological site, where you’ll visit the city’s main attraction – the famous detailed map of sixth century Jerusalem.
Enjoy a five-hour private yacht trip with an instructor, including snorkelling, diving equipment and a BBQ lunch. Keep your eyes out for schools of fish, coral and even a sunken ship.
Nothing but the best. On this suggested Jordan itinerary these are our handpicked, tried-and-tested choices.
Testimonials
I would highly recommend cazenove+loyd due to their impeccable service and attention to detail. My experience in Jordan was beyond my expectations. I felt incredibly lucky to have had the inside track to Jordan, visiting many places with special privileges, such as private access to the Royal Stables in Amman, where we had breakfast, met the King's horses and enjoyed an Arabian horse show.
We had a fantastic trip to Jordan. Auriole Potter was wonderful, very helpful, thoughtful, thorough, patient, with lots of great suggestions. The arrangements were all impeccably organised and went perfectly. We loved everything we saw and did. But what made our trip so perfect was our guide, Taher Arslan, and our driver, Nassre Khalouf. I cannot say enough positive things about them. They were a dream team.
