We offer several popular suggested Private Tour Itineraries, all with 5-star accommodations.  Private Tours including 3-star and 4-star accommodations and other sights in Jordan or even Syria are available upon request.  All tours begin and end at Queen Alia Airport, Amman and are private for you and your family/friends party and can commence any day and include a private Guide and full sightseeing program.

Arriving from Egypt ?

The Private Tour suggested Itineraries are shown as all starting from Amman Airport.  There are a number or daily flights from Cairo and the flight takes about 1 hour.  If arriving in the morning it is easily feasible to go direct to Petra that same day.

Tours can also start in Aquaba at the border crossing with Israel.  You can reach this crossing from Egypt and the Tabah crossing  Completing the various formalities and crossing Israel by Taxi is normally a routine trip but it can take 2-3 hours and you must be prepared to carry your own bags. 

Private Touring - Flexibility & ServiceMovenpick Petra

We propose a number of popular Itineraries which can be adapted or extended as you wish.  All can be conducted at your pace, to your times, stopping and diverting as you wish.

We also offer a number of Special Interest Private Tours for you, your family or group:Treasury

Archaeological Tours:  If you have special interests in a particular archaeological era, let us know about that.  We will talk to the experts and make sure you have the opportunity to indulge your appetite for early Islamic architecture, Roman road-building, Nabatean hydrology or whatever you find especially fascinating-

Handicrafts:  Participation in a handicraft workshop is a unique way to acquire new skills, let loose your creative urges and interact in a very personal way with your mentors. Touring a selection of handicraft centers can be equally enriching, whether your interest is in the production itself or simply in acquiring a unique hand-crafted momento of your visit to Jordan

MealCuisine:  Your days will be filled not only with visits to Petra, Wadi Rum and other local attractions, but also the chance to visit local farms and orchards and to go shopping in the local markets with the chef.  Who knows?  Maybe you’ll pick up a working knowledge of Arabic language (at least the all-important food words!) and a little experience at haggling.

Jerash:   Sit where the Romans sat 2,000 years ago in the Jerash Hippodrome to watch a marvelous show which the Roman inhabitants might have watched.  This show brings the Roman ruins alive!  The show includes a demonstration of Roman Army tactics and weaponry (they even call out the orders in Latin), a series of gladiatorial contests, and finally a thrilling 7-lap chariot race around the Hippodrome.  Lots of great photo ops here—after the performance you can go down on the track of the Hippodrome to chat with the performers, try on a Roman helmet or shield (very heavy!) or even take a spin in a chariot.

Petra RockPetra By Night  A romantic way to see Petra, Petra by Night is not your typical sound-and-light show.  No colored laser beams, no booming amplified music or recorded actor narratives—just a remarkable chance to experience Petra as the ancient spice caravan travelers must have seen it.   

Perseids Meteor Shower:  This annual sky-show is one of the best meteor showers around, and runs about a month.  The peak nights are August 12-13, when you should be able to see around 50-80 meteors each hour.  The Perseids are one of the fastest-moving meteor showers, which makes for a brilliant and exciting display.  Wadi Rum, with its complete absence of competing lights, noises and pollution, is one of the best earth-bound vantage points for watching the show.  Join Petra Moon for our annual pilgrimage to Wadi Rum to watch this thrilling phenomenon.
