All Year Round
Home of the Ajlun Castle built in 1184, the town has great examples of Islamic architecture. Ajlun Archaeological Museum has all sorts of artefacts from the region.
The modern and ancient capital of Jordan is one of the oldest inhabited cities. The city's modern buildings blend amazingly with the remnants of ancient civilizations.
Dead Sea is a 30 minute drive from Amman and you reach this unique spot in Jordan. It brings a sense of unreality to any traveler passing through.
Less than an hour drive from Amman takes you 2000 years back in time. Jerash hosts the best preserved sites of Roman architecture in the world.
The incredible Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is described as ‘one of the most precious cultural properties of mankind's cultural heritage'.
Shobak is a Crusader castle on the eastern side of the Arabah, perched on the side of a rocky, conical mountain looking out over fruit trees below.
Absolutely stunning in its natural beauty, Wadi Rum summarizes the romance of the desert. You may meet some friendly Bedouins living close by.
Welcome to Jordan! Keep your eyes peeled at Amman airport for the Travel Talk sign for your transfer to the hotel. Freshen up and meet in the lobby around 6:00pm for an informal meeting with your guide and other tour members. Afterwards you have free time to start exploring vibrant Amman or go out for an optional group dinner.
Fill up on breakfast before a big day exploring. Follow your guide on an included city tour through Amman with included visits to the Citadel and Amphitheatre. Next up, make tracks towards Ajloun to visit the castle ruins and impressive ancient city of Jerash. Filled with stunning sights of Greco-Roman ruins, the area has been inhabited since the Bronze Age! Return to Amman in the evening.
Today we will make tracks for our campsite in Wadi Rum Desert. Enjoy free time to explore and relax or join an optional camel trek through the otherworldly desert landscapes. In the evening, enjoy a traditional Jordanian dinner under the stars. Followed by music and dance around the campfire as we get to know the locals of Wadi Rum!
Kick off the day with an included Jeep safari through the incredibly vast and rocky landscapes of the desert. In the afternoon, farewell Wadi Rum as we head towards the Lost City of Petra! Recognised as one of the amazing 7 Wonders of the World, the city of Petra is a serious sight to behold, carved from rose-coloured rock. Enjoy free time on arrival in Petra to relax and unpack before an optional Petra by Night tour in the evening for a magical first glimpse of the ancient city lit by over 1,5000 glimmering candles.
Get your cameras ready for a full day exploring all the sights of Petra. Be sure to pack comfortable shoes as there will be plenty of walking today. Follow your guide as they lead you towards the inner city to the Paraoh’s Castle, Triumphal Arch, Amphitheatre, Siq, Treasury and plenty more. Learn fascinating stories about the rediscovery of this ancient city lost in time.
Fill up on breakfast before a jam-packed day! First up we’ll visit the Shobak Castle, the first Crusader fortress in the territory of East Jordan (Oultrejourdain). Learn from your guide about the history of these ruins built in 1115. Then, hop back on board the coach as we head towards the lowest point of dry land on Earth – the Dead Sea! Also known as ‘Sea of Salt’, the Dead Sea is hundreds of metres below sea level and holds incredibly salty water that keeps you a float! Throw on your swimsuit, cover yourself in a cleansing mud bath and jump into the salty sea to bath in the natural minerals! Tonight, we’ll return to Amman.
Have your final breakfast on us and start bidding farewells to your travel mates before checking out of the hotel in Amman. Time to start counting days for your next adventure with Travel Talk!

Eat up at breakfast as you depart for Ajloun Castle and the ancient city of Jerash. Filled with stunning sights of Greco-Roman ruins, the area has been inhabited since the Bronze Age! As you get your daily dose of history and amazement, return to Amman for the evening.
We make for our camp at the otherworldly desert of Wadi Rum. No better way to roam the desert filled with impressive rock formations, time to jump on a jeep safari. Brace for a local feast afterwards, we’re having an authentic Jordanian dinner in a magical setting tonight. Naturally to be followed by a camp fire in the desert, singing and sharing stories – scary or not – and bonding with your travel mates. Hope for a clear sky and a stunning starry sky at our desert camp.
The experience of a lifetime awaits. Next up will be the magnificent world-famous Petra, the greatest attraction in the Middle East and a full day of exploration. Your local guide will provide a brief history of the ancient city and show you the ins and outs. The massive underground city is carved into a huge rose-coloured rock, make sure to have your cameras at the ready! You’ll also get a chance to discover the Pharaoh’s Castle, the Triumphal arch and the Amphitheatre along the way. Remain in Petra overnight as none can have enough of it.
A day is never enough for the vastness of Petra. The tour of the ‘Rose City’ continues before we drive to Shobak castle. The journey continues to the lowest point of dry land on earth. The Dead Sea, also known as ‘Sea of Salt’, is hundreds of metres below sea level, hence the famous incredibly salty water that floats you almost above waist. Enjoy the warm sun, cleansing mud baths and the most original swimming experience ever. Then continue to Amman where we stay overnight.

Embark on a city tour of beautiful sites and highlights including the Citadel and the Amphitheatre, and discover the impressive history of Jordan.

We have just returned from Jordan on the ‘Essential Jordan Tour’ & had an amazing time.
Jordan desperately needs tourism, it is suffering terribly from the current situation across the border. We felt completely safe & at no time regretted our decision to go there.
Our guide Faizal was amazing. He had an extensive knowledge of Jordanian history & was keen to share it with us, along with his passion for his Country, we left enriched. He also assisted by checking on our comfort with the quality of our accommodation & ensured we had enough food, water etc. If you are allocated Faisal as your guide, you are very fortunate.
Upon arrival at Queen Alia Airport, passport control took forever, meaning the Travel Talk driver, thought we weren’t on the flight, so had left. No problem, I simply rang the emergency number & he returned within half an hour.
We had a further issue with the itinerary, which Travel Talk dealt with swiftly & without question.
There will always be problems that crop up, it’s the way they’re dealt with that makes the difference. I considered Travel Talk dealt efficiently & effectively, with our issues.
There are several changes that should be made to this itinerary; the Camp in Wadi Rum is not Captains Cabin, as apparently this camp was letting customers down. Also, there are references to ‘Amphitheater’s’, which as Faizal pointed out, do not exist in Jordan, they are Theatre’s or Odean’s. This historical inaccuracy is annoying for travellers looking to learn from the experience & should be changed.
The hotel choices in Petra & Amman are good, offering a reasonable 4* level of accommodation. However, the camp in Wadi Rum, even being realistic to its location, would benefit from a deep clean, there were also no pillow or mattress protectors. In this respect, it needed to up its game, (due to this, I’ve only given accommodation 3* which is a little unfair to the lovely hotels). This didn’t spoil our enjoyment of Wadi Rum though, which was magical.
We were delighted with our Jordan tour & with Travel Talk, we would definitely consider them for future tours.
N. Beedie
Osama was a fantastic guide – super passionate about his country and had a wealth of knowledge to share.
P. Lavin
Osama was an outstanding tour guide who explained the history of the sites brilliantly.A top class tour and a top class guide! Highly recommended!
C. Huck
Osama was very knowledgeable and organised. I liked that he showed us local shops/restaurants.
J. Waddell
Guide was an amazing tour guide funny yet very knowledgeable! We all really enjoyed his vibes! My first experience with Travel Talk was amazing and will definitely book with Travel Talk again!
K Dunn
I was recently on the Essential Jordan tour which was brilliant. Our guide Issa was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and great fun. He was always up front and honest about restaurant recommendations and different features of the places we were staying, for example telling us in advance that if local salespeople in Petra requested he ask us if we would like to buy anything, he would do so. He went over and above his responsibly as a tour guide in my opinion, for example dropping me off at a hospital to visit a friend, and bringing us cakes to celebrate one of our group member’s birthday. The transport and accommodation was very clean and comfortable, and the tour was well organised. The attractions were really enjoyable and Issa’s talks really enhanced the experience! Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea were real highlights. Thoroughly enjoyed my week in Jordan!
Maria Calvet Colome
‘Essential Jordan’ was an amazing trip!! Beautiful country, with amazing sites to visit & a lot of history to discover. Definitely recommend doing it!! And Issa, the tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and very engaging.
