Jordan is small, safe and packed with headline sights. In six days you can walk into Petra through its mile-long canyon, sleep in a Bedouin camp in the red desert of Wadi Rum, float in the Dead Sea and still have time in Roman Jerash and the capital, Amman.
You travel by private vehicle with a driver-guide, distances are short, and the roads are good. Nights are a mix of hotels and a desert camp. It works as a stand-alone trip or paired with Egypt. International flights are not included.
