Jordan Coastal Escape

Upon landing at Queen Alia International Airport, a private driver welcomes guests for the scenic four‑hour journey south along the Desert Highway toward Wadi Rum. The route unfolds through increasingly dramatic arid landscapes before reaching the protected desert wilderness, where a Bedouin guide transfers guests by 4x4 across crimson sands and towering rock formations to the camp. Complimentary water is provided throughout the drive. Guests settle into the profound silence of golden dunes and endless horizons, enjoying a traditional dinner beneath the first stars of the Jordan adventure from their upgraded Martian Tent accommodation. The evening is free to absorb the desert’s timeless beauty.

After breakfast at the camp, guests depart south toward the Red Sea’s crystal turquoise waters. Aqaba welcomes them with its relaxed coastal atmosphere, where they can stroll along the waterfront promenade, explore local markets, or simply unwind by the sea. The gentle sea breeze and views of the surrounding mountains create a peaceful setting. After free time to enjoy the city’s charm, guests transfer to Aqaba Gulf Hotel for check‑in and an overnight stay. The evening is free to savor Aqaba’s laid‑back rhythm, perhaps enjoying fresh seafood at a seaside restaurant.

Departing from Aqaba in the morning, guests journey north through desert landscapes toward Petra, the legendary rose‑red city carved from sandstone by Nabatean hands over two thousand years ago. Water is provided in the vehicle. Upon arrival, a half‑day guided visit takes guests through the dramatic Siq canyon to the unforgettable reveal of the Treasury’s intricate facade, followed by exploration of royal tombs and ancient temples. After the visit, the journey continues north to Amman, where guests check in at Khan Khediwe Hotel for a well‑earned evening of relaxation in the capital.

After breakfast at the hotel, guests depart for the short journey to Earth’s lowest elevation, the extraordinary Dead Sea. Along the way, stops are made at scenic viewpoints capturing breathtaking panoramas across the mineral‑rich waters and surrounding mountains. Day access to a Dead Sea facility is provided, where guests can float effortlessly in hyper‑saline waters, coat themselves with therapeutic mineral mud believed to rejuvenate since ancient times, and relax by the pool while taking in the stunning landscapes. In the afternoon, after a few hours of wellness and relaxation, guests return to Amman for a second overnight stay at Khan Khediwe Hotel.
