Dinner and overnight at the hotel in Amman.
After breakfast, we will move to Jerash, the Greco- Roman City, known as the City of the 1000 columns. Jerash is known as the best-preserved Decapolis City in the modern world. After having optional lunch in Jerash we will head to Ajloun where we will visit "Qala'at Ajloun", which was built in 1184 AD by Izzedin Usama, who was one of the generals of the Arab leader Salah Eddin, to protect the routes between Jordan & Syria. After our tour in Ajlun, we will return to Amman overnight.
After breakfast, we will visit the capital of Jordan, Amman. Once named Philadelphia, it originally spread over 7 hills like Rome. Antiquity and modernism meet here, where you will visit the ruins of Assyrians, Babylonians, Ammonites, and Romans. Further, we will leave Amman heading to Petra via the city of Kerak, where we will visit the Crusader Castle, and get to know the architectural military brilliance of the Crusaders. After the optional lunch in Kerak, after that, we will head to Petra overnight.
Today's hike brings you into Petra via a spectacular but little-known Bedouin trail through the mountains. You'll begin with a couple of hours' walk across open farmland before following the path across the eroded sandstone. Huge views begin to open up across the Great Rift Valley to the west. After another hour the trail descends towards Petra and opens onto one of the city's most impressive sights: the immense rock-cut façade of ad Deir, the Monastery. You can rest and drink tea here, and explore the ruins, before following the stone steps of a Nabataean processional way down into the heart of Petra. After wandering through the temples and tombs you will leave through another secret slot canyon (‘the Dark Siq') before turning back towards Petra and following the main siq for the classic entry into the city. This brings you out at Petra's most famous monument, the Treasury. This itinerary offers a long, wonderful day's hiking around Petra, and means you can experience the two greatest approaches to the city in a single day.
Afterward, we go on to our next destination which is the largest landscape of Jordan, Wadi Rum. In this vast echoing wilderness you can enjoy many daring sports while getting acquainted with the local community, The Bedouins. Gala dinner at our camp in Wadi Rum & overnight
