The mysteries of ancient Egypt and Jordan unfold before you on this 14-day journey of discovery to revered temples, tombs and monuments centuries old. From hotels with incredible views, to a 3-night River Nile cruise, to behind-the-scenes insights by local experts,

Starts with Cairo in Egypt, and meet your Egyptologist for a spectacular day of guided sightseeing: visit the Egyptian Museum, Memphis, Sakkara’s “Stairway to the Sky” (the oldest of the pyramids), and Giza’s Sphinx and Great Pyramids. Also visit the “Hanging Church,” St. Sergius Church, the Coptic Museum, and St. Merurius Church, and enjoy a farewell dinner.

Fly to Amman Th----- three nights in the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth. Enjoy a welcome dinner, excursions to Amman and its Archaeological Museum, Jerash, Um Quais, and John the Baptist’s Baptismal Archaeological Park in Bethany Beyond-the-Jordan, where Jesus was immersed in the baptismal springs. Next, travel to Moses’ Mount Nebo, the Madaba Archaeological Museum, and Mukawir, where Salome danced and John the Baptist was imprisoned and beheaded. Continue via Wadi Mujib and the Crusaders Castle of Kerak to Petra, where a full day of guided sightseeing in the “rose-red city” is included. In Lawrence of Arabia’s Wadi Rum, enjoy a Jeep tour, then return to the Dead Sea.
