What our customers ask about Adventure Tours & Trips in Jordan
When is the best time to go on an Adventure tour in Jordan?
March through May provides the most favorable conditions for Jordan's adventure tours with temperatures ranging from 20-30°C (68-86°F). These mild spring months create ideal conditions for outdoor activities at key destinations like the Dana Biosphere Reserve and Wadi Mujib. The pleasant weather makes exploring Petra's vast archaeological site more comfortable and allows for extended hiking sessions. The Movenpick Resort near the Dead Sea sees peak bookings during this period as travelers take advantage of the temperate climate for both adventure activities and relaxation by the water.
What are the must-do adventure activities in Jordan?
Jordan's diverse landscape presents numerous opportunities for outdoor exploration. Walking tours through the ancient city of Petra reveal hidden pathways and lesser-known viewpoints. The desert expanse of Wadi Rum opens up to 4x4 excursions across red sand dunes and past towering rock formations. Active travelers can trek through the water-filled canyons of Wadi Mujib or float effortlessly in the mineral-rich Dead Sea. Bedouin camps throughout Wadi Rum provide nighttime star-viewing sessions paired with traditional desert meals served around the fire.
What fitness level is required for Jordan Adventure tours?
Most Jordan adventure tours require participants to be in reasonably good shape. Key activities include an 800-step climb to Petra's Monastery and various hikes through natural reserves. The Siq trail at Wadi Mujib requires 2-3 hours of walking including waterfall climbs. For those seeking less strenuous options the Dana Village trail extends just 2 kilometers and offers a gentler walking experience. Tours generally include both challenging and moderate options to accommodate different fitness levels.
What type of accommodation can I expect on Jordan Adventure tours?
Accommodations in Jordan span from city hotels to desert camps and mountain lodges. The Space Village Luxury Camp in Wadi Rum features private bathrooms and community dining spaces. Nature enthusiasts often stay at places like the Dana Guesthouse which serves as a launch point for local hiking trails. City stops typically include modern hotels while desert experiences focus on traditional Bedouin-style camps complete with evening meals under the stars.
How can I combine cultural experiences with Adventure activities in Jordan?
Jordan's adventure activities naturally intertwine with cultural encounters. Visitors can spend mornings hiking ancient trade routes followed by afternoons learning traditional bread-making from Bedouin families. The Al Manara Hotel in Aqaba serves as a base for both Red Sea water sports and local cultural programs. Many tours incorporate stops at local markets visits to traditional workshops and meals with local families between physical activities.
