This trip is for the 18 to 29 year olds

Discover one of the jewels of the Middle East with a week in Jordan – home to one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Kick off your adventure in Amman, where you can find hidden bars and delicious falafel, then head on to Wadi Rum to hike, watch the sunrise and explore the land in a 4WD. Witness the awe-inspiring site of Petra and soak away your worries in the Dead Sea. Head back to Amman’s satellite city of Madaba to end it all among beautiful mosaics. Your week-long journey takes you to the best places and gives you enough time to dive straight into the history, culture and delicious food that this region is known for.

Why you'll love this trip
  • Only Petra’s Treasury – one of the Seven Wonders of the World – is stunning enough to be the temple of the Holy Grail. Your pass to this sacred site lasts two full days so that you can explore every nook and cranny at your own pace.
  • See the lowest point on earth – the Dead Sea – and float in its famously salty waters, soaking up its healing minerals and lathering yourself in the rejuvenating mud (if the mood strikes).
  • Sleep under the stars at a Bedouin-style camp in Wadi Rum with all the creature comforts, waking for a stunning sunrise and a thrill-seeking 4WD adventure.
  • Take a guided walk around Amman to learn about the city’s diverse history (and also to stake out where to get the best falafel and hummus).
  • Get a taste of the ancient and modern sides of Jordan with loads of free time – just ask your knowledgeable local leader, who’s always ready to answer every question and provide the best local tips.
  • By travelling on this trip, you’ll directly support our Intrepid Foundation partner, Animal Care in Egypt. Donations help them care for sick or injured working animals, like horses and donkeys, and help empower local communities with the knowledge and training to better care for their animals.

Is this trip right for you?
  • It’s not all hot desert days in Jordan, as the winter months (December to February) can be quite cold. Temperatures in northern parts of the country can drop to freezing overnight. Snowfall around these areas, as well as Amman, is common. Pack smart to prepare you for varying temperatures if travelling during these months.
  • You’re the boss on this trip. There’s loads of free time to do whatever you want or optional activities to show you the way. Maybe budget a little extra cash for activities that aren’t included.

Really well organised. The itinerary involved the perfect amount of time in each place (Amman, Wadi Rum, Petra and the Dead Sea). Wadi Rum definitely the most memorable. Abdullah (tour leader) great dude and made the experience even more enjoyable.

This was an amazing trip. Once in a life time. The desert camp and Petra were absolutely the two highlights. Our tour leader was great and ensured our safety through-out.

I had an amazing time of this trip. We packed so many incredible experiences into only a week and I had a great taste of the local culture. Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea were all incredible highlights and I made such great friends on the trip.

“Yalla habbibi”. A fantastic holiday, highly recommend. Our guide Belal was entertaining and looked after us. The 18-29 group age option is great to meet likeminded people. Highlight was Wadi Rum dessert! Lots of places to walk and explore in desert and Petra above and beyond the itinerary (making this a 3/5 physicality rating)

We were lead by Mohammad Alghazo for a week in Jordan. His expertise, punctuality, leadership and knowledge made this an amazing and unforgettable experience - one we would instantly recommend to anyone interested in exploring Jordan. 10/10
