Discover Jordan tours visiting Amman
From Amman to Petra and Wadi Rum, see Jordan’s icons with ease.
Amman is a great starting point for Jordan tours, with easy links to ancient sites, desert landscapes and the Dead Sea. Guided tours from Amman can mix city time with big-name highlights, from Roman ruins and mosaic towns to long walks through rock-cut Petra, and 4x4 drives in Wadi Rum. Some itineraries also visit Egypt, Israel and Jordan, but time in Jordan still covers the classic route south, with a mix of history, scenery and local food. Trip length and guiding style vary, so it is easy to choose a pace that suits a short break or a deeper journey.

Road to Jordan with Cruise - 16 daysExperience the wonders of Egypt and Jordan on this 16-day journey from Cairo to the Dead Sea. Stand before the Pyramids of Giza, cruise the Nile in style, and explore ancient Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. Then fly to Jordan to uncover the rose-red city of Petra, camp under the stars in Wadi Rum, and float in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. With temple visits, desert safaris, and plenty of time to unwind, this tour blends history, adventure and relaxation across two incredible countries. It’s a fascinating deep dive into the region’s culture and ancient civilisations.Signature Journeys16All of it! The sights, the people and both our guides - particularly the variety the tour offered. The mix up at Jordan airport - no one to meet us with visas. The lack of discussion about whether to continue to Jordan, given the security situation and lack of all other tours who had obviously decided to cancel.
Totally Jordan - 8 DaysUncover Jordan’s treasures on this 8-day journey from Amman to the Dead Sea. Step back in time among the Roman ruins of Jerash and Umm Qais, then head south to the iconic rose-red city of Petra. Marvel at the vast desert landscapes of Wadi Rum on a thrilling 4x4 safari and explore the Crusader stronghold of Shobak Castle.

It’s a perfect blend of ancient sites, natural wonders, and unforgettable scenery.
Signature Journeys8We loved everything about our trip. The favourites were of course Petra and the wadirum desert. It was such a fantastic week, we had the best tour guide who was fun and engaging and totally looked after us. It was nice to travel through different turains and really get to know this beautiful country

Also the tipping kitty was quite high for Egypt . Jordan was no problem with the kitty and it worked well.

Signature Journeys8My mum and I absolutely loved the tour! We were so lucky to have Ghadhan or 'G' as we called him. He took great care to ensure we were safe and happy. He went above and beyond to try to accommodate the needs of everyone. He had such amazing knowledge. We were really sad to say goodbye. The hotel in Amman, while it had a nice rooftop restaurant and lovely helpful reception staff, we found the beds very uncomfortable. We also found the breakfast buffet lacking in service and options. All other accommodation was exceptional and we really enjoyed.

Signature Journeys6Hameed was a delight. As well as organising us well, his knowledge of Petra was incredible and made this a highlight of the trip. Wadi Rum was also amazing. Other than the shopping stop to buy jackets (very helpful), there were too many shopping stops. We spent more time shopping than in the churches.

Popular tours visiting Amman
Why start in Amman
A lively capital that links Jordan’s top sights in one smooth route.
Amman works well for Jordan tours because it sets up a smooth route to the country’s best known sights, without losing the feel of a lived-in capital. Time in the city can cover the Citadel, the Roman Theatre and local souks, then the journey heads north to places like Jerash and Umm Qais for well kept ruins and wide views. From Amman, it is also simple to follow the King’s Way to Madaba’s mosaics and Mount Nebo, then continue south to Petra for a full day of exploring the Siq, the Treasury and the Monastery. For many travellers, the contrast is the main draw, one day might be street food and museums, the next is red desert in Wadi Rum on a 4x4 safari, then a slow float in the Dead Sea. For peace of mind, many guided tours include key transfers and planned sightseeing, with support that suits first-time visitors while still leaving space to explore.
