Start your morning with breakfast at your hotel before enjoying a guided city tour of Amman, Jordan’s vibrant capital. Begin at the Amman Citadel, set on one of the city’s original hills.

Next, walk down to the nearby Roman Theatre, a well-preserved 6,000-seat amphitheater dating back to the 2nd century AD. Afterward, travel north to Jerash, known as the Pompeii of the East. Walk along the Colonnaded Street, admire the Oval Plaza, and explore temples and theaters that reflect the city’s rich Greco-Roman heritage. Later, continue to Ajloun Castle, a 12th-century fortress built by the forces of Saladin. From its hilltop location, enjoy panoramic views over the Jordan Valley. At the end of the day, return to Amman for an overnight stay.

After breakfast, begin a scenic drive through some of Jordan’s most important religious and historical sites. Start with Mount Nebo, where Prophet Moses is believed to have viewed the Promised Land. From the summit, enjoy sweeping views of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and, on clear days, Jerusalem. Visit the Church of Moses, where early Christian mosaics have been carefully preserved. Next, continue to Madaba, known as the City of Mosaics. Visit St. George’s Church, home to the famous 6th-century Mosaic Map of the Holy Land.

Today is the highlight of your Classic Jordan Tour, as you spend a full day exploring Petra, the legendary Lost City of the Nabataeans. Meet your guide at the Petra Visitor Center and begin your walk through the Siq, a narrow and winding canyon framed by towering rock walls. As you exit the Siq, enjoy your first breathtaking view of Al-Khazneh (the Treasury), Petra’s most iconic monument. Carved into rose-colored sandstone, Petra flourished as an important trading center between 800 BC and 100 AD. During your visit, explore impressive rock-cut tombs, temples, and the ancient amphitheater while learning how the city thrived under Roman rule.
