Timeless Egypt & Jordan: 15-Day Ancient Wonders Tour
From the Pyramids of Giza to the Rose City of Petra, two ancient civilizations await.
The Timeless Egypt and Jordan Tour is a 15-day journey through some of the most historically significant destinations on earth, taking travelers from the iconic monuments of Cairo and Luxor to the carved sandstone city of Petra and the vast desert of Wadi Rum.
This itinerary balances archaeological depth with natural landscapes, moving from the Nile Valley's open-air museums to Jordan's dramatic southern desert. Each destination is approached with enough time to absorb its context, not merely photograph it.
Rated easy in difficulty, this tour is designed to be accessible to a wide range of travelers. Guided visits, overnight transfers, and included meals reduce logistical complexity, allowing participants to focus on the experience itself.
The journey concludes at the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, where travelers float in mineral-rich waters before returning to Amman for the final overnight stay and homeward flight.
Tour Highlights
Stand before the Great Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza, visiting also the Step Pyramid at Sakkara, the oldest completed pyramid in Egypt.
Sail the Nile on a traditional felucca from Aswan, with all meals provided on board and an overnight under open skies on the river.
Explore Luxor's East and West Banks, including the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, and the Temple of Hatshepsut.
Discover Petra on foot through the Siq canyon, arriving at the Treasury facade carved from rose-red rock by the Nabatean civilization.
Cross the red dunes and rock formations of Wadi Rum on a 4x4 desert safari, spending the night at a traditional Bedouin camp.
Float in the buoyant, mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea at the lowest elevation on the surface of the earth.
