Trips that include Aqaba
Multi-day private journeys where Aqaba features in the day-by-day schedule.
2 Days in Jordan — Petra & Wadi Rum

The shortest worthwhile Jordan trip — the two icons, Petra and Wadi Rum, with one night in a Bedouin desert camp. Tight but achievable from Amman.
5 Days in Jordan — The Highlights Loop with Bethany & Aqaba
5 days
A complete five-day loop adding the Bethany baptism site and a Red Sea stop in Aqaba to the core highlights — the sweet spot for most first-time visitors.
7 Days in Jordan — The Complete Highlights Loop
7 days
A full week loop with comfortable pacing — every headline site plus Ajloun, the King’s Highway castles and a Red Sea day, with no overwhelming driving day.
8 Days in Jordan — Highlights with Dana, Umm Qais & the Baptism Site
8 days
A deeper eight-day loop that adds the Decapolis city of Umm Qais, a Dana Reserve hike and the baptism site — for travelers who want the highlights plus a few off-the-beaten-path days.
