Example Itinerary
This is an example itinerary. Our experts have all travelled widely in the region and will be happy to tailor any of our itineraries to suit your tastes and budget, or build a trip from scratch.
Day 1 Amman: Arrival
On arrival in Amman you will be met and assisted through immigration and transferred to your hotel.
Day 2 Amman: Historic City & Wine Tasting
This morning drive north of Amman to the spectacular Roman ruins of Jerash. The city's many monuments still retain the atmosphere of the once thriving metropolis, famous in its time for its magnificent temples, amphitheatres and plazas. Return to Amman where your guide will then take you for a stroll through the city’s crowded streets, from the colourful Rainbow Street, Amman’s soho like area, to the souk area around the Husseini Mosque. Experience some of Jordan’s best street food, before visiting some of the capital’s sites. This evening you will be given a wonderful insight into Jordanian cuisine as you embark on a private cooking class at Beit Sitti, an establishment set up by sisters looking to continue their grandmother’s legacy.
Day 3 Amman: Roman Jerash
This morning drive north of Amman to the spectacular Roman ruins of Jerash. The city's many monuments still retain the atmosphere of the once thriving metropolis, famous in its time for its magnificent temples, amphitheatres and plazas. Explore the theatres, colonnaded streets and the nymphaeum before returning to Amman. This evening enjoy dinner at Fakhr Eddin Restaurant.
Day 4 Amman – Petra: Through the Holy Land
Leave Amman and drive south to the mosaic-filled city of Madaba. Next head to the nearby Mount Nebo, one of the reputed sites of the tomb of Moses. The summit of this lonely, wind-swept mountain commands spectacular views over the Dead Sea to the West Bank and Jerusalem and you can see the springs where Moses supposedly smote the ground to bring forth water. Continue your journey south to the Pink City of Petra.
Day 5 Little Petra & Petra: Along the Bedouin Trail
This morning visit Little Petra, located a few miles away from the main valley, and a less-visited site with a charm all of its own. From here you then travel a short distance to the start of the Back Door Route to the main site of Petra - a spectacular, but little-known, Bedouin trail. This route offers a unique insight into two very different sides of Petra, with dramatic views and the chance to escape the crowds. This evening you will then be treated to a very special experience, visiting Petra at night, as you follow the candles through the siq and enjoy local Bedouin music as you sit and admire the Treasury lit up at night, a memory that will stick with you for many years to come.
Day 6 Petra – Wadi Rum: Desert Camp
This morning is free for you to explore Petra further taking in some more of the ancient tombs and carvings. In the afternoon head south to experience the unique landscapes of Wadi Rum. Today you will experience not only history but the unique landscapes of Wadi Rum. Wadi Rum is a vast, silent desert, both romantic and extremely beautiful, where massive mountains rise vertically out of the pink desert sand, eroded by the wind into shapes of men, animals and monsters. Transfer through the desert to your camp and enjoy the afternoon to take in the peace and quiet or enjoy a walk in the surrounding area. Sunset is particularly delightful as the desert glows for miles into the horizon and you can enjoy a sundowner at the camp.
Day 7 Wadi Rum – Aqaba: Sand Safari
This morning set out in a 4WD to explore the desert sands and monolithic rock formations, stop to scramble up dunes and walk through narrow rocky canyons while learning about the history of the desert and the hardy flora and fauna that make the desert their home. Return to your camp for some lunch, before driving to the turquoise waters of the Red Sea.
Day 9 Aqaba: Relax by the Sea
Enjoy a day at leisure today. You can either enjoy your stunning hotel, or explore one of the many additional experiences available, including sailing on a private yacht as you watch the sun set over the Red Sea.
Day 10 Aqaba – Kerak Castle – Dead Sea: Crusader Castle & Saline Waters
Leaving Aqaba, drive north to Kerak Castle, built in 1136 as part of a long line of Crusader mountain top castles that defended the route from Jordan to Turkey. From here continue on to the Dead Sea. The rest of the day is at leisure to enjoy the legendary therapeutic and healing secrets of this renowned salt lake. We recommend you take a mud-pack treatment with therapeutic Dead Sea minerals.
Day 11 Dead Sea – Amman Airport: Departure
This morning your driver will pick you up from the hotel and escort you to Amman airport for your flight.

Positive Impact of this Trip
Making a Difference
Community Tourism
People and local communities have always been at the heart of Wild Frontiers and the travel experiences we offer. Through community tourism we have the opportunity to generate real positive impact, supporting people we visit through sustainable local development, and in turn help to alleviate poverty and protect culture and environments in often more vulnerable destinations. While doing so, our clients gain richer travel experiences and more meaningful connections with the people they meet.
Conservation and Climate Action
As a travel company, we hold a responsibility to minimise our environmental footprint and contribute to sustainability, and work closely with local communities to support their efforts. By implementing initiatives such as carbon measuring, tree-planting, reducing single-use plastic and promoting eco-friendly practices, we can help mitigate the negative impacts of tourism on fragile ecosystems and local communities. Additionally, prioritising conservation efforts helps preserve natural habitats and wildlife, ensuring that future generations can continue to enjoy the wonders of our planet.
Wild Frontiers Foundation
The Wild Frontiers Foundation aims to provide a platform to create awareness, raise money and deliver funding to projects in countries where we operate as a travel company. Through the foundation, we are able to channel money into grass roots projects, which we have either established ourselves or support through charity partners. These include initiatives focused around education, the empowerment of local people and community conservation.
