7 days in Jordan

Jordan Adventure

We were impressed by the variety and uniqueness of landscapes, culture, and activities packed into this relatively small country. Best-preserved Roman ruins, massive canyons, floating in the Dead Sea, mysterious Petra, and some of the most unique glamping experiences in the outworldly Wadi Rum desert.

A starting plan, with time for the journey

From Amman to Petra and a desert night

Every saved day, stop and selected overnight is readable below. The plan keeps its original membership; the day notes explain which outings to shorten, confirm or leave out.

Check the route against your dates

Mujib water trails are seasonal, Petra By Night has a separate current schedule, and desert transfers require a confirmed meeting point. A listed month does not guarantee access.

Allow the return journey

Jerash is north of Amman. The Mujib Scenic Drive pin is on a highland detour. Neither should consume the buffer for your onward flight.

Day 2Amman

Plan the day: Use the Amman city sights, Madaba and Mount Nebo as choices on the way to the selected Maโ€™in night. They are separate places, not one city walking circuit.

If plans change: Drop a city stop or the bathing session if the road journey and hotel arrival need the time.

Things to do

  2. Mount Nebo1-2h
  3. St George's Church2h

Day 3Dead Sea

Things to do

  1. Wadi Mujib Canyoning3-4h
  2. Soak in Dead Sea2h

Suggested stay

Day 4Dead Sea

Plan the day: Travel south toward Wadi Musa. Salt Beach is a locally confirmed photo option; Little Petra is an optional arrival-afternoon visit.

Things to do

  1. Soak in Dead Sea2h
  2. Salt Beach1h
  3. Little Petra3h

Suggested stay

Day 5Petra

Things to do

  1. Petra Ancient City4-10h
  2. Petra By Night2h

Suggested stay

Day 6Wadi Rum

Things to do

  1. Wadi Rum Train Station30m
  2. Wadi Rum Desert1-2d
Day 7Amman

Plan the day: Reserve the day for the return to Amman and your onward connection. The saved Mujib Scenic Drive pin is a highland detour, not the coastal canyon entrance.
