Jerash & Dana
Near Amman you’ll savour the magical atmosphere of Roman Jerash and marvel at the diverse landscapes of Jordan from the summit of Mt. Nebo. Continuing south, you head into Dana Nature Reserve. Here a system of wadis and mountains extends from high plateau to desert lowland – one of the best natural treasures in Jordan
Natural & Ancient Wonders
You approach the ancient Nabatean city of Petra via a narrow siq (gorge), at the end of which the impressive buildings hewn out of solid pink rock are revealed. You have a full day to explore Petra before taking to 4WD vehicles and heading deep into the wild desert and towering cliffs of Wadi Rum. You spend the night under the stars in a Bedouin-style tent before travelling to the Dead Sea – the lowest point on earth – to float in its saline waters.
Dana Nature Reserve
Our overnight stay here is the hidden gem of your Jordan adventure. The reserve contains a remarkable diversity of landscapes from wooded highlands to rocky slopes and sandy dunes. Dana supports a staggering diversity of flora and fauna - 600 species of plants, 37 species of mammals and 190 different birds.
Responsible Travel
Money from your stay in Dana goes directly to the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature and we have arranged for a talk on their work during your visit.
