Day 3 from Dana to Feynan is about 18 km (6 to 7 hours), day 4 to Wadi Araba is about 22 km (7 to 8 hours), and day 5 to Shakarit Musaid is about 19 km (7 to 8 hours) with some uphill sections. Petra and Wadi Rum days also include hiking.

On the hiking days breakfast, lunch and dinner are included, prepared fresh by your own chef, with Bedouin tea, water and soft drinks. Camping equipment and a support jeep that carries your luggage between campsites are also provided, and on day 4 a donkey carries the water.

Yes. Camping equipment is included, but sleeping bags are not, so please bring your own for the nights of wild camping. On some camping nights an upgrade to a luxury lodge is possible for a supplement.

You stay at the Ambassador Hotel in Amman, Wadi Dana Lodge in the Dana Nature Reserve, private camps in Wadi Feynan, Wadi Araba and Shakarit Musaid, Little Petra Campsite, a hotel in Petra, Mazayen Camp in Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea Spa Hotel for the last two nights, or similar.

Petra is visited over two days. On day 6 you start at Little Petra (Siq al Barid) and hike the back-door route up to the Monastery. On day 7 you enter by the Siq to see the Treasury, the Street of Facades, the Theatre and the Colonnaded Street, and can hike via Wadi Farasa to the High Place of Sacrifice, a route few visitors take.

From Little Petra you climb steps and follow a quieter route into Petra that arrives at the Monastery, one of its largest carved facades. The trail gives fine views over the surrounding mountains and avoids the busiest main entrance on your first day at the site.

On day 8 you spend a full day hiking in the Disi area of Wadi Rum, famous for its red sand and rock formations, before a final night at a private desert camp with a campfire and Bedouin tea. On day 9 you enjoy a few more hours of hiking before lunch and a transfer to the Dead Sea.

Dana is a nature reserve in southern Jordan where you spend day 2 overnight at a lodge. On day 3 you hike a spectacular downhill route from Dana through the sandstone gorge of Wadi Dana to Wadi Feynan, one of the scenic highlights of the tour.

Yes. After the hiking days you spend two nights at a 4-star resort on the Dead Sea, with day 10 completely free. Float in the salty water, try the healing mineral mud or enjoy the spa before your airport transfer on day 11.

On day 2 you visit St. George Church in Madaba with its famous mosaic map, Mount Nebo where Moses is said to have viewed the Promised Land, and the immense Crusader castle at Kerak on the King's Highway, before reaching Dana for dinner and overnight.

Our representative meets you at Queen Alia International Airport and helps arrange your visa on arrival for non-restricted nationalities before walking you through customs. Check the requirements for your passport before you travel.

After your Petra visit on day 7 there are optional extras, such as a Turkish bath with a steam bath, scrub and soap massage. These are not included in the tour price and can be arranged on request.
