"Chariots, Castles, and the Dead Sea: A 2,000-Year Journey Through the Heart of Jordan"

As we step into 2026, the desire for meaningful, slow-paced, and culturally immersive travel has never been stronger. For those seeking to bridge the gap between ancient history and modern comfort, few destinations offer the magnetic pull of the Hashemite Kingdom.

At Adventures Abroad, we specialize in international tours that go beyond the surface. Our flagship Jordan Small Group Tour (JO1) is a meticulously curated 8-day odyssey designed for the curious traveler. Whether you are looking for the best small group tours or seeking the expertise of the Best International Tour Operator in Vancouver-BC, Canada, this journey through Jordan promises a transformative experience.

The Roman North: Chariots and Colonnades

Our journey begins in Amman, a city where white limestone houses spill over seven hills. But the true leap back in time happens in Jerash. Known as the "Pompeii of the East," Jerash is one of the best-preserved Roman Decapolis cities in the world.

Walking the Cardo Maximus, you can still see the ruts worn into the stone by chariot wheels from two millennia ago. For those on our senior tours, we ensure the pace is manageable, allowing you to soak in the acoustics of the South Theatre and the grandeur of the Oval Plaza without the rush of "big bus" tourism.

Medieval Might: The Crusader Castles

As we move south along the historic King’s Highway, the landscape shifts into the rugged beauty of the desert highlands. We stop at Shobak Castle, an imposing 12th-century Crusader fortress. Exploring these ruins offers a tangible connection to the era of Saladin and King Baldwin.

This segment of the tour is a favorite for our travel groups for solo travelers. The shared awe of standing atop a wind-swept battlement creates an instant bond among the group, making it one of the most welcoming solo tour groups in the industry today.

Two Days in Petra: The Rose Red City

While many operators treat Petra as a half-day photo op, Adventures Abroad believes this UNESCO World Heritage site deserves more. Our Jordan Small Group Tour dedicates two full days to Petra.

  1. The Siq & The Treasury: Enter through the narrow, high-walled fissure to witness the sun hit the Al-Khazneh.

  2. The Monastery (Ad Deir): On day two, we venture further to the hidden heights, exploring the Royal Tombs and the sacrificial altars.

This in-depth approach is why we are consistently rated among the best small group tours for educational travel.

Weightless Wonder: The Dead Sea

We conclude our 2,000-year journey at the lowest point on Earth. After days of walking through history, the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea offer a therapeutic finale. Floating effortlessly in the salt-concentrated water is a bucket-list sensation that defies gravity and rejuvenates the soul.
