Enjoy breakfast and check out of the hotel to head to Petra. Travel through the rugged desert landscapes to Petra, the ancient rock city and tour this awe-inspiring Nabatean city and UNESCO World Heritage site. Listed as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Petra was carved into a sandstone gorge more than 2,000 years ago to dominate the trading routes of ancient Arabia and is rightly regarded as the jewel in the crown of Jordan’s historic sights.
Walk along the narrow “Siq”, the high-walled fissure in the rocks that winds into the heart of the city. Then, get awed at your first breathtaking glimpse of the Treasury, known locally as “El-Khazneh” - Petra’s stellar sight. Get amazed at its intricate façade and hear how movies such as Indiana Jones, the Transformers, and the Last Crusade were filmed here. Don’t forget to take photos of this glorious monument and then continue your tour.
See Petra’s ornate tombs cut into the rock face, and admire the stunning theatre that once seated 3,000 spectators. Visit the Byzantine church and hear stories as well as facts about the ingenious Nabateans who chose, carved out, and then made this place their home so many years ago. You will have some free time to explore and walk up to the monastery or the high place of sacrifice if time permits.
Thereafter, travel onwards to the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth at 1412 feet below sea level. This sparkling inland sea rich in extraordinarily high levels of salt and minerals, offers you an incredible experience. Book yourself a spa treatment at your resort, a must do at the Dead Sea!

Wake up to a relaxed breakfast in your hotel and the glimmering, blue sea.
Today visit Mt Nebo, known as the tomb of Moses. The summit of this peak, offers some magnificent views of the Jordan Valley.
The remainder of the day is free for you to wade into the sea for a short floating session. The sea is so buoyant that you don’t need to swim! This is truly an unforgettable sensation.
