Why This Tour is Cost-Effective

  • Shared Experience = Lower Costs: By traveling with a group, expenses like transportation and accommodation are shared, making it much cheaper than private tours.

  • Smart Routing: The itinerary flows naturally — Amman → Petra → Wadi Rum → Dead Sea → Amman — minimizing backtracking and wasted time.

  • Authentic Stays: You only overnight in Wadi Rum, where the desert setting itself is the highlight. This keeps lodging affordable while offering a unique Bedouin experience.

  • Balanced Inclusions: Key meals and resort access at the Dead Sea are covered, while optional expenses are kept flexible.
