Itinerary and highlights
Leave the logistics to us as you travel in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle. Your knowledgeable, English-speaking driver will provide insightful commentary, ensuring your journey is seamless from start to finish. Without the rigid schedule of a group tour, you'll have the freedom to discover each site at your own pace.
Your journey begins with a scenic drive along the historic King's Highway to Shobak Castle, a 12th-century Crusader fortress perched atop a mountain. Explore the formidable stone walls and learn about their storied past. Take in the breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding valley before continuing your adventure..
Next, we head to the world-renowned "Rose City" of Petra. As a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the New7Wonders of the World, Petra is an archaeological masterpiece carved directly into the rock.
Walk through the mysterious Siq, a narrow, winding canyon that opens dramatically to reveal the stunning Treasury (Al-Khazneh).
Marvel at the intricate rock-cut facades of the Street of Facades and the ancient Roman Theater.
Finally, you'll visit Little Petra (Siq al-Barid), a smaller but equally fascinating Nabatean site. Often overlooked by visitors, this area served as a suburb and trading hub for the merchants of Petra. You’ll be captivated by the well-preserved rock carvings, caves, and ancient frescos that offer a unique glimpse into Nabatean life.
Your private tour concludes with a comfortable return journey to your hotel in Amman.
