Jordan is easy to visit on a private circuit with a driver or in a small group. This Middle Eastern kingdom combines exceptional historical heritage with striking natural landscapes. Classic circuits of 10 to 14 days allow you to cover the major sites: the ancient city of Petra, the lunar landscapes of the Wadi Rum desert and the therapeutic waters of the Dead Sea. Longer trips offer the opportunity to explore the north of the country, with the Greco-Roman ruins of Jerash and the castles of the eastern desert.
