Review this 2-day Jordan tour from Amman covering Petra, Wadi Rum, Aqaba, and the Dead Sea, with practical tips on cost, pace, and camping.

“The two day trip was incredible and most of that was due to the most excellent of guides, Mr Mohammad Abu Hamdah. The drive through snow and ice to Wadi Musa was amazing and then down to Petra. The time there was well spent and was able to see it all by entering via the back way visiting the Monastery first then walking down to the Treasury. The off to Wadi Rum, the two hour desert trip and camping overnight in luxury. Ice on the desert sands in the morning as we headed back to the village on the back of the truck and off to Aqaba! After Aqaba up…”

“Petra is the setting for the movie The Last Crusade. It was great to be able to visit a place I had always wanted to visit. From Petra, our driver/guide Abraham suggested we go further to the Dead Sea. The deep blue-green color of the Dead Sea and the strangely shaped rocky mountains to the east were very impressive. Being able to visit two places in one day was a great joy and a great memory.”
