Red Rocks And Historic Highs On Jordan Vacation Packages

The rose-hued city of Petra, capital of the Nabataean Empire, is rightfully the frontrunner of all Jordan vacation packages. An archaeological wonder deep within the rugged desert canyons of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Petra blends ancient eastern traditions with Hellenistic architecture. Walk through the Siq, a narrow gorge leading to the Treasury (Al Khazneh)—a piece of art cut into the red sandstone mountain. The amphitheater, the royal tombs carved into cliffs, the monastery and lookout point atop the mountain—there are so many trails to explore. Steer your journey along the best paths and tracks by getting an Enchanting Travels expert on board. Rest assured we’ll make excellent choices to build a brilliant travel plan for you.

The Citadel looms above the capital Amman, offering sweeping views of old souqs and modern high-rises. Ruins of a Byzantine church, the Roman Temple of Hercules, and Umayyad Palace reveal the varied cultural influences at the heart of Jordan. Visit the blue-domed King Abdullah Mosque, Jordan Museum, the old city and new malls. End at Rainbow Street to sample Jordanian specialties like mansaf and manakish at a family-run restaurant.

Rippled dunes greet you at Wadi Rum (Valley of the Moon), with its canyons, arches, and rock bridges, all best explored with a knowledgeable local guide. March to May are some of the best months to visit Jordan, when you can spend the night at a luxury desert camp and experience this pristine wilderness and spectacular starry skies.
