About this trip
Sixteen days across Jordan and Egypt, covering two of the ancient world's biggest names without rushing past either. You start in Jordan's desert castles and Amman's markets, then work through Jerash, Ajloun, a village homestay and the Dead Sea before reaching Petra and Wadi Rum.
From Wadi Rum you fly to Egypt for Cairo's pyramids and museum, then down to Aswan and Luxor, including a night sailing the Nile on a traditional felucca. The tour ends with a sleeper train back to Cairo and a last wander through the Khan-el-Khalili bazaar.
It's a full itinerary with a lot of ground covered, but built around the sites themselves rather than constant transit, with proper time given to Petra and Luxor.
What you'll do
- Explore Petra with a full day at the site
- Camp with Bedouins in Wadi Rum
- Float in the Dead Sea and walk the Dana Nature Reserve canyons
- Sail the Nile overnight on a traditional felucca
- Visit the pyramids, Sphinx and Egyptian Museum in Cairo
- See Karnak, the Valley of the Kings and Luxor temple lit at night
- Covers two countries in one trip, with an internal flight between Jordan and Egypt
- Includes a night in a village homestay and an overnight on a felucca deck, so expect some simple, shared sleeping arrangements
- A hotel upgrade is available for the felucca leg if you'd rather skip the deck
