Petra-Red-Rose-City

Travel south to Petra, the Nabatean Red Rose City located 139 miles (225 kilometers) from Amman. This city was carved into stone over 2000 years ago to control the trade routes of ancient Arabia. Explore its towns, dams, and water channels, then walk through the narrow Siq, the main entrance to the city. The first monument encountered is the Khazneh, which was thought to hold numerous treasures. Additional landmarks include the Altar of Sacrifice and The Monastery. Later in the afternoon, proceed to Wadi Rum, known as the valley of the moon and the filming site for Lawrence of Arabia and The Martian. Overnight is spent in a Bedouin camp within the Rum reserve, where tents are equipped with beds, blankets, toilets, a dining room, and solar-powered electricity; dinner is served in Bedouin style followed by evening activities.

Dead-Sea-Floating-Experience

Continue to the Dead Sea, located more than 1,300 feet (400 meters) below sea level, making it the lowest point on Earth. Known biblically as the site of Sodom and Gomorrah, the Dead Sea's waters contain such a high concentration of salt and minerals that aquatic life cannot survive there. Visitors have the opportunity to float effortlessly on its surface, which is valued for its healing and rejuvenating properties. Enjoy the peaceful views and tranquil environment before returning to Amman.
