Itinerary and highlights

Journey south from Amman City or Amman Airport to the legendary city of Petra, Jordan’s most celebrated treasure and its crown jewel of tourism. Carved into rose-red cliffs more than 2,000 years ago by the industrious Nabataeans, Petra stands as a testament to their refined culture, impressive architecture, and advanced engineering, including intricate water channels and dams. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Petra is an awe-inspiring destination that captivates every traveler with its grandeur and timeless beauty.

Next, visit Little Petra (Siq al-Barid), an archaeological gem located just north of Petra and the town of Wadi Musa in Jordan’s Ma’an Governorate. Like Petra, this Nabataean site features stunning structures carved directly into the sandstone canyon walls, offering a more intimate and less crowded glimpse into ancient architecture and daily life. Enjoy a guided 1-hour exploration before returning to Amman.
