Breakfast at the hotel. Departure for the visit of the city of Jerash. It is the second-largest site in Jordan after Petra. Today, it is considered one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the Near East. Hidden under the sand for several centuries, it was discovered and restored over 70 years.

You will discover the Church of St. George in Madaba with its map of Palestine unearthed in 1898 during the construction of the church. This mosaic from the middle of the 6th century, barely altered, traces the geography of the Byzantine Near East.

Day 4: Petra (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)
Breakfast at the hotel and departure for a full-day tour of Petra, the pink city. Geology is at the centre of the history of the red city, entirely carved in soft sandstone. What is reflected on the site today is the work of man over the past ten thousand years. Nearly 800 monuments are scattered over 100 km2 of Petra. It is the Eighth Wonder of the World, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, and is the most famous site in Jordan and the Middle East.
You will cross the Siq, a narrow and long fault line caused by a prehistoric earthquake. At the end of the Siq, stands the most majestic monument of Petra, "Al Khazneh" or the "Treasure" with its Greco-Roman decoration. This city is breathtakingly beautiful. Beyond the Treasury, there are hundreds of sculpted buildings, temples, royal tombs, baths, arched gateways, cobbled streets and above all the Roman Theatre with about 3000 seats.
You will cross the Roman Cardo and visit the "Qasr El Bint", the only temple still standing and in a remarkable state of preservation. Lunch at the site's restaurant.

This site is one of the places of the Great Arab Revolt, which was memorably depicted in the film Lawrence of Arabia, directed by David Lean.

Your Destination —
Jordan
Full to the brim with epic scenery, ancient history, captivating cities and bucketlist attractions, Jordan is a popular tourist destination that offers its guests a true immersion into the charms of the Middle East.
While Jordan offers a variety of spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Sites, none are more beloved than Petra, a fascinating archaeological city that sits within a mountain gorge and features beautiful 'rose-tinted' stone. Frequently referred to as one of the seven new Wonders of the World, this architectural masterpiece is a must-stop spot on any tourist's itinerary in Jordan.
For those hoping to escape the arid climate of the desert, take advantage of Jordan's coastline with a visit to the Dead Sea. Thanks to the incredibly high salt quantities in the water, you can float atop the waves, make the most of the natural minerals and their healing properties and enjoy a well deserved rest!
