5-Day Jordan Christmas and New Year Tour
Looking for a Jordan Christmas tour that gives you more than a hotel and a set menu? This 5-day festive escape hands you the country's greatest sights at the quietest, most comfortable time of year — and lets you welcome the New Year somewhere genuinely memorable.
Jordan in late December is a rare thing: cool, clear, and blessedly free of the crowds that fill Petra in spring. You'll walk the Siq in soft winter light, see the Treasury without shoulder-to-shoulder queues, and stand on Mount Nebo looking across the Jordan Valley towards the Holy Land on the sort of crisp day that carries for miles.
The route is deliberately unhurried. You're based in Amman for all four nights, so there's no repacking, no early check-outs, and no long transfer days eating into your holiday. Each morning you head out with a private air-conditioned vehicle and an English-speaking assistant, then come back to the same room.
Day two takes you north to Jerash, the finest Roman provincial city surviving anywhere in the Middle East, followed by Amman's Citadel, Roman Theatre and the bustle of the downtown souq. Day three is Madaba, home to the famous 6th-century mosaic map of the Holy Land, then Mount Nebo. Day four is the big one — Petra, with a local specialist guide walking you through the Siq to the Treasury, the Street of Facades and the Royal Tombs.
Because this is a private Jordan New Year tour, the pace is yours. Linger longer at Petra, add a Wadi Rum extension, or build in a Dead Sea float — just tell us and we'll adjust it.
Christmas and New Year departures fill early, and Jordan's festive-season hotel availability tightens fast. If these dates suit you, it's worth confirming sooner rather than later.
