Upon arrival on the Jordanian side, your Jordanian driver will be waiting with a sign displaying your name. The driver will assist with the required paperwork for your Jordan visa on arrival, where applicable.
Continue to Jerash, one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the Middle East and often called the “Pompeii of the East.” Explore its impressive archaeological remains, including Hadrian’s Arch, the Hippodrome, the Oval Plaza, the Temple of Artemis, the Colonnaded Street, and the Nymphaeum.
Later, drive to Amman for a city tour. Visit the Amman Citadel, which includes remains from the Roman, Byzantine, and early Islamic periods, then continue to downtown Amman and the Roman Theatre, a remarkable 2nd-century monument with seating for around 6,000 spectators.

Travel along the historic King’s Highway and stop at the Wadi Al Mujib viewpoint, where you can enjoy dramatic views over one of Jordan’s most impressive canyons.

Next, drive toward Dana Biosphere Reserve for a panoramic viewpoint stop. Dana is Jordan’s largest nature reserve, known for its spectacular mountain scenery, deep valleys, and rich biodiversity.
If time allows, visit Shobak Castle, another impressive Crusader fortress built by King Baldwin I in 1115. Perched on a rocky hill, the castle offers striking views over the surrounding landscape.

You will also have free time to explore further on your own. Optional walks include the climb to the Monastery, the High Place of Sacrifice, the Byzantine Church, or other hidden corners of the ancient city.
After your Petra visit, continue to Little Petra, also known as Al Beidha. This smaller Nabataean site features rock-carved buildings, water channels, cisterns, and ancient chambers believed to have served traders and travellers.
