Food

All breakfasts and two dinners are included at the Wadi Rum camp and the Dead
Sea resort.
Whilst staying in hotels we usually eat in local restaurants and on some
occasions the leader will take those who wish to a restaurant for a 'mezze'
style meal. These allow fast service with a variety of good quality food for
the group and usually cost 10-15 JOD pp ( GBP £11-17, USD $14-21, CAN
$18-28). If you are vegetarian, please note that main meals are limited in
choice; however, mezze is almost always available in restaurants and is a
good, filling choice. There is also a good choice of seafood available when
at the Red Sea. While camping in Wadi Rum we enjoy a traditional meal called
Zarb which is cooked underground.  This consists of rice with a selection
including chicken, lamb and vegetables. Vegetables will be cooked separate to
the meat. 

Accommodation

On this Jordan adventure, we stay in a range of accommodations: a three-star hotel in downtown Amman, a simple but well-located hotel in Petra, and an unforgettable stay in a rustic Bedouin camp in the desert. We end in style, relaxing in a five-star hotel by the Dead Sea.



Below are the accommodations typically used on this trip:



Amman: Hotel Khan Khediwe (nights 1 & 2)







In Amman, we usually stay at Khan Khediwe, a three-star hotel in the bustle of downtown Amman. It's ideally placed for our adventures, close to a market and within walking distance of the Roman amphitheatre and shopping areas.



Petra: Hotel in Wadi Musa (nights 3-5)







We spend three nights in Wadi Musa, the town adjacent to Petra. Demand for rooms near Petra is very high; over the years, we have built relationships with several accommodations, which allows us to secure spots even during peak season. The hotels are simple but well located. Some are within walking distance of the main entrance to the Red Rose City, others are no more than a 10-minute transfer away. Places we stay include Edom Hotel, Petra Plaza, Petra Palace, Amra Palace and La Maison among others.



Wadi Rum: Exodus Private Camp (night 6)







Used exclusively by our groups, this permanent Bedouin camp in Wadi Rum is a highlight for many travellers. We sleep in simple, traditional tents sheltered by rugged stone cliffs and enjoy the warm hospitality of our Bedouin hosts. In the evening, they serve us a zarb dinner, cooked underground in the traditional manner, while the rest of the night is typically spent around the campfire, chatting and sharing an unforgettable experience.  



Aqaba: Lacosta Hotel (night 7)







In the heart of modern Aqaba, the four-star Lacosta Hotel is within easy reach of  shops, restaurants and the Red Sea. The rooms come with furniture and beds from the Middle East, while the hotel also has a gym and restaurant.



Dead Sea: Holiday Inn Dead Sea (night 8)







A standout stay for many is the Holiday Inn at the Dead Sea. Checking into this five-star property allows us to kick back and relax, perhaps in one of the many pools or with a float in the salty Dead Sea waters from the private beach. There’s also a free-to-use gym and a selection of excellent restaurants and bars.



Worth knowing 



Demand for accommodation in Wadi Musa (Petra) is high; this can create problems with hot water and plumbing. In general, the accommodation is more basic compared to the rest of Jordan. 

Single supplements are available for this trip but cannot be guaranteed at Wadi Rum. Please enquire at the time of booking for details and up-to-date prices.
