This tour is recommended for travelers with a short time in Jordan. See Madaba, Mount Nebo and float in the salty waters of the well-known Dead Sea. Last but not least, full day visit to magnificent Petra before returning to Amman.
In the morning, pick up from any hotel or residence in Amman or Queen Alia International Airport. You need to arrive to Amman Airport latest at 08:00 in winter time and latest at 09:00 in summer time to be able to do the tour. Drive around 40 minutes to Madaba.
Stop at the town of Madaba, known in Jordan as City of Mosaics. You find here many examples of Byzantine and Umayyad mosaic art. As example we view the 6th century map of Palestine on the floor of St. George's church. If time permits and you like free time to wander around.
Short ride to Mt. Nebo, the final point for Prophet Moses after wandering 40 years in the desert. This is the place where he gazed at the Promised Land before he died here. Beside the panoramic view overlooking the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and parts of the Holy Land, you see on Mount Nebo the remains of an early Christian monastery.
The Dead Sea is with 400 meters below sea level the lowest point on earth. Visit one of the beaches with changing room and showers. Spend some leisure time, pamper your skin with a mud pack from the shores and float without effort in salty waters. Entrance fee to the beach is not included.
Hit the road for a 3 hours drive to Petra, where the driver drops you at your hotel.
Explore the splendid red rose city Petra, established around the 6th century BC by the Nabataean Arabs, and a major caravan centre during the Hellenistic and Roman period. Pass the narrow gorge, the so called Siq, rewarded by a glimpse of the most beautiful monument, the Treasury, known also as Al Khazneh. Passing the Street of Facades you see more of the great architecture, mostly carved in the coloured sandstone, the Urn and the Silk Tomb, the Theatre and the Grand Temple. When you ready return to the entrance gate.
