Este itinerario está diseñado para quienes anhelan una experiencia activa y envolvente en Jordania, adentrándose en el corazón de sus paisajes más espectaculares. Prepárate para dejarte cautivar por la belleza en bruto y las maravillas ancestrales de este cautivador país, mientras te embarcas en un viaje definido por el senderismo y la exploración. Tu aventura comienza en la histórica ciudad de Madaba, famosa por sus exquisitos mosaicos bizantinos. Aquí tendrás tiempo libre para admirar el intrincado arte del Mapa de Madaba, una obra maestra que representa Tierra Santa. Desde Madaba, te aventurarás a la ciudad perdida de Petra, Patrimonio de la Humanidad de la UNESCO, que en su día fue la próspera capital del reino nabateo. En lugar de seguir el típico camino turístico, experimentarás la caminata de la "puerta trasera", una ruta menos transitada que desvela una perspectiva única de esta antigua maravilla. Este recorrido panorámico te lleva a través de cañones ocultos y paisajes escarpados, y culmina con una vista exclusiva del Monasterio, uno de los monumentos más sobrecogedores de Petra. Dejando atrás los acantilados de arenisca de Petra, te adentrarás en el vasto y cautivador desierto de Wadi Rum. Aquí te espera el Sendero Beduino, una experiencia de senderismo de varios días que desvela la verdadera esencia del desierto. Atraviesa imponentes cañones, trepa por puentes de roca natural para disfrutar de vistas panorámicas y sitúate en la cima del pico más alto de Jordania, Jebel Umm ad Dami, desde donde las impresionantes vistas se extienden por el desierto hasta Arabia Saudí. Cada día de la Ruta Beduina conlleva nuevos retos y recompensas, mientras te sumerges en la tranquilidad del desierto, acampas bajo un cielo tachonado de estrellas y conectas con el espíritu nómada del pueblo beduino. Para garantizar tu comodidad durante la parte de acampada de tu aventura, te proporcionamos todo el equipo de acampada necesario, para que puedas disfrutar plenamente de la experiencia sin tener que cargar con material adicional. Durante el viaje, te acompañarán guías experimentados que compartirán contigo sus conocimientos sobre la tierra, su historia y su cultura. Garantizarán tu seguridad y comodidad, permitiéndote apreciar plenamente la magia de las maravillas naturales de Jordania. Y para minimizar nuestro impacto en este entorno prístino, proporcionamos contenedores de agua rellenables para reducir los residuos plásticos, aseos portátiles para mayor comodidad y refrescantes duchas de bolsa para rejuvenecer después de un día de excursión. Esta excursión está pensada para quienes buscan un encuentro activo y auténtico con Jordania, descubriendo sus joyas ocultas y abrazando el espíritu de aventura.

Programa del tour

Día 1

Llegada a Ammán y traslado a la histórica Madaba

On arrival at Queen Alia International Airport, our team will greet you and transfer you to Madaba, a town renowned for its impressive Byzantine mosaics, notably the Madaba Map of the Holy Land. If your arrival is early, you'll have some free time this afternoon where we recommend you the Church of St. George and admire its remarkable mosaic floor. Check in at your Madaba hotel and enjoy a relaxing evening before your journey continues. OVERNIGHT:. Madaba hotel. MEALS:. None. EXTRAS:. None
We'll leave Madaba early today and drive south to the town of Wadi Musa and today is all about exploring the Nabataean site of Petra. It was once the ancient capital of the Nabataean commercial empire until the Romans finally took over in 106AD. For a long period of time, Petra was forgotten - except by the local Bedouins - before it was rediscovered in 1812 by Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt. Petra can be found at the edge of the Wadi Aruba desert, where canyon walls and towering hills make it virtually impossible to reach, except via a narrow cleft in the rock, known as the Siq. There are very few free-standing buildings in Petra, as the Nabataeans chose to carve their dwellings into the multi coloured sandstone cliffs. Petra has become one of Jordan's main tourist attractions and the Jordanian Government is well aware of this. The tourism infrastructure in the adjoining village of Wadi Musa is booming, though, thankfully, once you enter through the Siq, the site is protected, there aren't that many touts or souvenir sellers, and all the building feels miles away. We have most of the day available today to explore this ancient city, though as an added bonus, we'll be exploring Petra via the back-route which starts at Little Petra. Before embarking on our hike into Petra, we'll explore the small but equally interesting site of Little Petra, or Siq al-Barid. From here we'll take a short jeep ride to the start of the mountain trail which links Little Petra to the Monastery and main site of Petra. The back-route into Petra makes for an interesting and much less crowded way of visiting, and what's more, you'll be rewarded with incredible mountain views towards the Holy Land. Whilst hiking the back-route you'll still have the opportunity to see all of the same monuments visited on the normal route, with the addition of Little Petra and the Monastery. The route starts with the ascent of a number of rock hewn steps and paths which straddle the mountain edge. After reaching a plateau, there is an opportunity to stop for refreshments at a small cafe from where you'll have some fantastic photo opportunities. From here the path continues until you'll have a glimpse of 'Ad-Deir' (or the Monastery) where you can have a well deserved rest before descending down into the main site of Petra. Once in Petra the valley opens out, and you'll see tombs carved into the rock on both sides. You'll get a glimpse of the ruined Roman amphitheatre and colonnaded streets. As we continue through the ancient city of Petra, we'll eventually reach The Khazneh (Treasury) which is probably the most familiar monument of Petra. Whilst the back-route hike into Petra isn't particularly difficult, as a number of ascents/descents and a significant number of steps are required, this route is only suitable for those who have no issue in hiking in this type of terrain for a minimum of 2-3 hours as far as the Monastery and then a further few hours walking on sandy terrain, whilst exploring the main site of Petra. For those with less mobility or who are worried about the distance, horse carriages are available for around 20JD (USD 28) for an agreed period of time (only available within the main site of Petra, not on the hiking route). We do not recommend riding the horses that are available. OVERNIGHT:. Petra hotel. MEALS:. Breakfast. EXTRAS:. None
Your Bedouin Trail adventure commences with an exhilarating hike through the captivating landscapes of Wadi Rum, beginning at the Visitor Centre. The initial day's route leads you through the Um Ishrin Siq, a breathtaking canyon carved by time and nature, its towering sandstone cliffs creating a dramatic and immersive experience. As you trek through this natural wonder, you'll be constantly mesmerised by the desert's dynamic colour palette. The shifting sunlight paints the vast expanse in a spectrum of red, gold, and ochre hues, creating a visual spectacle that changes with every passing hour. The hike itself is designed to be moderately challenging, allowing you ample opportunity to absorb the profound serenity of the desert environment and connect with its timeless beauty. Along the trail, you'll encounter remnants of the past, including ancient Nabataean and Thamudic inscriptions etched into the rock faces, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who traversed these lands centuries ago. Notable among these are the famed Anfashieh inscriptions, a collection of petroglyphs that provide valuable insights into the region's historical significance. You'll also encounter natural landmarks that highlight the unique geology of Wadi Rum. Tonight, you'll experience the magic of desert camping near Um Ishrin. As darkness descends, the vast, unpolluted sky will transform into a celestial canvas, illuminated by countless stars, creating an unforgettable and awe-inspiring spectacle. The silence of the desert, broken only by the crackling campfire, will provide a sense of peace and tranquility, allowing you to truly appreciate the beauty of this extraordinary place. Distance 10 to 12 km. Duration 5 to 6 hours. OVERNIGHT:. Camping at Um Ishrin Siq. MEALS:. Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch. EXTRAS:. None
Today's expedition delves further into the heart of Wadi Rum, revealing more of its historical and natural wonders. Your first point of interest is Lawrence's House, the remnants of an ancient Nabataean structure that gained notoriety as a temporary resting place for T.E. Lawrence during the Arab Revolt. You'll have time to explore the site, absorbing the atmosphere of this historic location and contemplating the stories it holds. The surrounding landscape, with its rugged beauty, provides a tangible link to the past and the legendary figure of Lawrence of Arabia. Continuing your hike, the trail leads towards the iconic Um Fruth Rock Bridge, a natural sandstone arch that stands as one of Wadi Rum's most photographed landmarks. This remarkable geological formation offers a unique opportunity for some light scrambling, allowing you to ascend to its summit and be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding desert. From this elevated vantage point, you'll gain a true appreciation for the vastness and grandeur of Wadi Rum, with its undulating dunes, towering cliffs, and ever-changing colours. The interplay of light and shadow on the sandstone creates a captivating visual display, making this a truly memorable experience. As the day draws to a close, your campsite will be established in the vicinity of Um Fruth, providing a tranquil setting for relaxation and reflection. As the sun sets, casting long shadows across the desert landscape, you'll gather around the campfire, sharing stories and experiences with your fellow travellers. The warmth of the fire, the silence of the desert, and the brilliance of the starlit sky will create an unforgettable atmosphere, allowing you to connect with the timeless beauty of Wadi Rum. Distance 8 to 10 km. Duration 5 to 6 hours. OVERNIGHT:. Camping at Um Fruth Rock Bridge. MEALS:. Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch. EXTRAS:. None
Today presents the most demanding, yet ultimately gratifying, segment of your Wadi Rum trek. Following a substantial breakfast to fuel your endeavours, you'll embark on a journey towards Um Muqur, a serene desert location nestled at the base of Jebel Umm ad-Dami, Jordan’s highest peak. This mountain, rising majestically from the desert floor, offers a unique opportunity to experience the rugged terrain and panoramic vistas that define this region. The ascent of Jebel Umm ad-Dami involves a moderately challenging climb, requiring a degree of scrambling as you approach the summit. While not technically difficult, the terrain demands a steady pace and a willingness to navigate rocky sections. Upon reaching the peak, standing at an impressive 1,854 meters above sea level, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking, uninterrupted views. The panorama encompasses the vast expanse of the Wadi Rum desert, stretching out in a tapestry of colours and textures. On a clear day, the horizon extends beyond Jordan’s borders, offering glimpses of the landscape of Saudi Arabia. The sheer scale and beauty of the scene provide a profound sense of accomplishment. After savouring the summit's majesty and capturing memorable photographs, you'll begin the descent, carefully retracing your steps to the base of the mountain. Here, your campsite will be prepared, offering a welcome respite after the day's exertions. The evening is dedicated to rest and reflection, allowing you to contemplate the day's achievement and the stunning landscapes you've traversed. As the sun sets, casting long shadows across the desert, you can relax under the starlit sky, sharing stories and enjoying the tranquility of the desert environment. This is a moment to appreciate the physical challenge you've overcome and the extraordinary beauty of Wadi Rum. Distance 16 to 18 km. Duration 7 to 8 hours. OVERNIGHT:. Camping at Um Muqur. MEALS:.

Today's trek offers a slightly more relaxed pace, allowing you to savour the scenic transition from Jebel Umm ad-Dami to the vicinity of Jebel Burdah, home to the renowned Burdah Rock Bridge. This hike provides a captivating journey through the quintessential Wadi Rum landscape, characterised by its vibrant reddish-orange sands and imposing, dramatic cliffs. The terrain, while still rugged, allows for a more leisurely appreciation of the surrounding natural beauty, offering ample opportunities to capture the iconic desert vistas. The Burdah Rock Bridge itself is a testament to the power of natural forces, a magnificent arch sculpted by wind and time. Reaching the summit of this natural wonder requires a degree of scrambling, adding an element of adventure to the experience. Once atop, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views that stretch across the vast desert plains.
