• Breakfast and departure for Madaba

Visit to the Orthodox Christian Church of St. George with the mosaic map of Jerusalem, Palestine, Jordan, Israel, and Egypt. We proceed to Mount Nebo, a ridge reaching 817 meters above sea level, located in western Jordan. The view from the summit offers a panorama of the Holy Land and, to the north, of the Jordan River valley. The city of Jericho in the West Bank is usually visible from the summit, as well as Jerusalem on a very clear day. Visit to Shobak Castle, known to the Crusaders as Mont Real or Mons Regalis, the Royal Mount Fortress. It was built in 1115 by King Baldwin I of Jerusalem to guard the road from Damascus to Egypt and was the first in a series of fortresses belonging to the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. The imposing castle stands as a solitary reminder of the ancient Crusader glory above a rugged and wild landscape dotted with a vast expanse of fruit trees. Transfer to Petra. Accommodation in a hotel, dinner, and overnight stay.

• Breakfast. Departure for the visit of Petra

located about 3-5 hours south of modern Amman, about 2 hours north of Aqaba, and on the edge of the mountainous Wadi Araba desert. The city is surrounded by towering hills of rusty-colored sandstone that provided ancient Petra with natural protection against invaders. The site is semi-arid due to the friable sandstone, which easily crumbled into sand and allowed the Nabateans to carve temples and tombs into the rock. The stone color varies from pale yellow or white through bright reds to the darker brown of the more resistant rocks. The twisted layers of different colors form spirals and waves in the rock wall, which the Nabateans exploited as decorative elements in their architecture. Access to the archaeological area is extraordinarily evocative: walking along a path inside a deep canyon, between sculptures and engineering works (the Siq), we reach the so-called "Treasury," a building entirely carved into the rock. At the end of the approximately 4-hour visit, those who wish can reach the "Monastery" (free visit) from which you can enjoy a splendid view. Return to the Petra hotel for dinner and overnight stay.

• Breakfast. Departure to Beidha

also known as Little Petra, the place where the Nabateans entertained their guests. It is one of the main crossroads of Petra, the entry and exit point of trade routes to the north and northwest. Here, caravans from the Negev, Gaza, Askalon, Jerusalem, and the Phoenicians stopped during their commercial travels. Merchants likely stayed in the cool isolation of Siq Al-Barid, the cold gorge, whose entrance is at the end of a narrowing valley. A 2-hour visit in a 4x4 jeep to Wadi Rum, the desert known as the Valley of the Moon, following in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia and climbing sand dunes and rock bridges. It is a valley carved in sandstone and granite rock in southern Jordan, 60 km east of Aqaba. The highest altitude in Wadi Rum is Mount Um Dami at over 1800 m above sea level. Arrival in Aqaba and accommodation at the hotel, free time, dinner, and overnight stay at the hotel.
