On the first day, you will be greeted by our guides at the Amman airport and taken to the starting point of The Jordan Trail. The drive will take approximately 3 hours in total. Along the way, we will make a stop at a roadside restaurant where you will have your first taste of Middle Eastern delicacies.

We will continue our journey via The Kings Highway towards Shobak, and along the way, our guides will provide you with the first set of information. You will arrive in the village of Shobak late in the evening.

This morning, you will be picked up by a bus to drive to the starting point of the trail. We will pass through the Wadi Gwher valley to reach Wadi Feynan. From Shobak, we descend into the Wadi, with the first part mainly downhill. In this canyon, you will also walk through water, so it's important to bring sturdy water sandals, water shoes, or sports shoes.

Along the trail, you will see olive trees, wild herbs, and green vegetation. Once out of the valley, you will find yourself on the edge of the desert. This is where we set up our first camp.

We trek through the Black Desert from Feynan to the Wadi Abo Sakakeen Canyon. But before reaching the valley, you'll have to conquer some sturdy hills. You'll immediately notice the diverse Jordanian landscape as you descend from the mountains and reach the "green valley". From November onwards, water flows here if it has rained a lot. In the final stretch of day 3, you'll still encounter some breathtaking views until we reach the Telatat Al-Sofor plateau. You'll set up camp there and enjoy a beautiful sunset.

Today you will partly trek through the green valley of Wadi Musa "The Valley of Moses". According to legend, Moses drew water from the rocks here for his followers. Along the way, we will also come across ruins. These ruins contain remnants from the Roman era. The Romans introduced advanced agricultural techniques and systems to harness the fertility of the land. They built irrigation channels and aqueducts to bring water to dry areas and further develop agriculture. The hike today will take you through valleys and beautiful canyons. We will set up our camp near the remains of a Nabatean settlement.

We leave the beautiful Um Ratam behind and climb until we reach the ancient caravan route Naqeb Slasel. Today, we will witness another change in scenery and reach an impressive viewpoint. Towards the end of the route, you will catch a glimpse of the city of Wadi Musa in the distance. Slowly, we make our way back towards civilization. Additionally, this route leads towards Petra.

Today we return to the inhabited world and enter the ancient Petra through "the backdoor". After 5 days, you will reach one of the 7 modern wonders of the world, and what a wonder it is. Petra consists of different parts and is a true city from ancient times. Since you enter from the back, you go against the flow of tourists and today you will admire The Monastery. We continue walking down the stairs and then hike the last part of the trail through the Rainbow Canyon. We choose not to visit The Treasury today, but to do it early in the morning tomorrow. This way, you can avoid the crowds of tourists and take better photos of all the historical buildings.

Upon arrival at the hotel in Wadi Musa near Petra, you are free to do as you please, although many choose to indulge in a typical Middle Eastern hammam. If you still want to visit The Treasury today, you can, as your ticket is valid for both days.

Today, you wake up early to be ready at the entrance of Petra at 07:00. By arriving so early, you can avoid the large crowds of tourists and fully enjoy the impressive buildings.

You first walk into the grand canyon, where you catch a first glimpse of The Treasury through the narrow gap that separates the 80-meter-high cliffs! After passing The Treasury, you can also visit the temple, the amphitheater, and the Siq. There, you can climb up for a better view.

If you already visited Petra yesterday or don't feel like getting up early, that's not a problem at all. Today, you have the freedom to choose how you spend your day.

The shuttle to Amman departs from the hotel between 14:00 and 16:00, and the guide will inform the whole group in time. This way, you will be back in Amman between 18:00 and 20:00, leaving you some time to explore the city.

On the last day in Jordan, if you have booked your flights through us or are using our additional shuttle service, you will be picked up in the morning from the hotel in Amman and taken to the airport for your departure.
