Day 2, Amman
Amman - Jerash - Umm Qais - Amman. This morning we visit Jerash, the world's best-preserved Roman provincial city, built over 2,000 years ago and known as the 'Pompeii of the East'. Here, we see the Forum, with its forest of towering columns, the arena, where the tracks of chariot wheels can still be seen, the souk area, Temple of Artemis and the South Theatre with its near-perfect acoustics. We continue on to Umm Qais , a dramatic black-basalt Roman city with panoramic views over the Sea of Galilee.

Day 3, Madaba
Amman - Madaba - Petra. Today, we tour the citadel, Archaeological Museum and enjoy free time in the colourful local souq. Driving onward to Madaba we explore the Greek Orthodox Church of St George which has incredible 6th century Byzantine mosaics, depicting Jerusalem and other holy sites. Later this afternoon, we head to Petra and enroute we'll stop to take in the history of Shobak Castle..
1 breakfast, no lunch, no dinner included.
Day 4-5, Petra
Get ready to be amazed! All but lost to the modern world until 1812, Petra is a real archaeological gem, full of ancient tombs and ruins ripe for the modern-day discoverer. We access Petra through the mysterious mile-long Siq which leads to the spectacular fa?ade of the Treasury (of Indiana Jones fame). This is just the beginning of a day filled with true adventure, where we'll explore amazing sights such as the Street of Facades, the Theatre, Colonnaded Street and Qasr al Bint. On day 5, there is an opportunity to return to the Rose City and further explore this amazing site.

Day 6, Wadi Rum
Petra - Wadi Rum - Aqaba. Today we transfer to Wadi Rum for a 4x4 tour of the moonscape terrain which T. E. Lawrence described as "vast, echoing and God-like." The desertscape of Wadi Rum is truly stunning with its ancient riverbeds and amazing eroded rock formations. We then drive onward to Aqaba, Jordan's premier Red Sea hotspot and enjoy an afternoon of R&R.

Aqaba - Bethany - Dead Sea. Driving north via Wadi Araba, we'll stop at Lot's Cave and the Dead Sea Panorama point.

Take a dip in the mineral rich waters, where you'll bob around like a cork - there is certainly no risk of sinking here! Your skin will also receive a fabulous detox, thanks to the curative qualities of the water.
