Israel, Petra & Wadi Rum: 8-Day Discovery Package

This package offers a comprehensive tour of our most sought-after destinations, spanning 8 days of adventure across the country and into neighboring Jordan. It’s a semi-guided experience, blending enlightening guided segments with personal exploration.

Your journey commences in Tel Aviv, the city that never sleeps! During your stay, you’ll embark on an evening activity. If the package begins on a Friday, you’ll participate in our “Shabbat Dinner,” or if on a Monday, our “Paint & Pint” activity. Both offer a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow travelers on your inaugural day in the country.

The ensuing morning, explore the enchanting neighborhood of Jaffa with our late morning walking tour.

On Day 3, head southward to the desert, the next thrilling leg of your tour. Discover the ancient fortress and archaeological wonders of Masada, taking in breathtaking views of the desert and the Dead Sea. Then, venture into the Ein Gedi nature reserve before concluding the day floating in the mineral-rich Dead Sea – Earth’s lowest elevation on land!

Day 4 finds you in Abraham Jerusalem, where you’ll partake in our Holy City tour. It’s a deep dive into the city’s rich history, highlighting places sacred to Jews, Muslims, and Christians. History buffs will especially appreciate sites like the Western Wall, Dome of the Rock, Al Aqsa Mosque, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

The following segment takes you on a 3-day whirlwind adventure in Jordan! Cross the Allenby Bridge border, then drive through the desert, pausing at Mount Nebo and Madaba. Your destination is the Seven Wonders Bedouin Campsite, your residence for the next two nights. Immerse in genuine Bedouin hospitality: savor an Arab-style dinner, relax under star-studded desert skies, and indulge in delectable Bedouin tea.

Day two in Jordan heralds a visit to Petra, an iconic archaeological marvel set amidst red sandstone formations. After a hearty breakfast, a bus takes you to this city, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Once a bustling nexus in the ancient Near East, Petra’s Nabataean inhabitants thrived on trade. Spend the morning touring Petra with a guide, then break for lunch at a local eatery. The afternoon is yours to discover, perhaps the monastery, before retiring to the Bedouin camp for dinner.

Your final day in Jordan introduces you to the pristine landscapes of Wadi Rum. Embrace the wilderness on a 4×4 Jeep tour, reveling in the expansive valleys, crimson dunes, majestic stone cliffs, and native fauna—especially mesmerizing at sunset. Post lunch, return to the Allenby Bridge and make your way to Jerusalem by evening.

This all-inclusive tour is an unforgettable Jordanian journey, complete with transportation to each site. For a deeper dive, we recommend the Abraham Tours app, packed with extensive details about each location. Pre-download it to access maps, info, and images offline.

Back in Jerusalem, the subsequent day ushers you to the West Bank for our “Best of the West Bank Tour”. Experience the essence of Palestinian culture and key Christian sites like the Baptism Site on the Jordan River and the Church of Nativity in Bethlehem.
