In the evening, you head to an old, traditional home in the downtown part of Amman, where you join a cooking class preparing classic Jordanian dishes. After, enjoy the fruits of your labour!

An early start this morning as it's around a five- to six-hour drive down the 5,000-year-old King's Highway to Petra. En route, you'll stop to see Mount Nebo, with its spectacular views over the Dead Sea; the Christian mosaics of Madaba, and the Crusader castle of Kerak. In Petra, you'll stay for three nights at your hotel. This evening you'll enjoy a candlelit Petra by night, which should be a magical experience.

Although it's probably the highlight of your holiday, bring your walking shoes and be prepared for an inspiring but energetic day.

Today you have free time to relax at your hotel, or head back to Petra for another day of exploring under your own steam. In the evening, another unique experience awaits you: head to a secluded cave up in the hills of Petra for a private dinner.

Today, you travel from Petra to Wadi Rum, enjoying a jeep tour of the seven sites before watching the sunset at your Bedouin-style camp.

After breakfast, you have a final morning to relax by the Red Sea. In the afternoon, you're met by your private driver and driven to Dana Guesthouse, a simple property with fantastic views across the Rift Valley. To fully appreciate the remoteness of this location, you'll be joined by a private guide and spend the evening stargazing.

Today you hike from Dana Guesthouse to Feynan Ecolodge, a beautiful 15 km (9 miles) trail downhill. En route, you have a high chance of spotting many of the 200 different bird species that inhabit the area, and plenty of wildflowers too. On arrival at Feynan, relax and enjoy some well-earned rest.

Today, you'll depart Wadi Feynan and be driven to the Dead Sea, around two and a half hours away. Before you leave, you'll take part in an essential part of Bedouin life, making Arabic coffee.

The Bedouin family will also explain to you the etiquette of serving Arabic coffee and how to drink it.
