أهلاً وسهلاً ahlan wa sahlan [welcome] · five days · the whole country, in a group of six
Ten sights in five days — Jerash, Amman, Madaba, Mount Nebo, the Baptism Site, the Dead Sea, Petra, Wadi Rum, Aqaba and Qasr al-Mushatta — in a group capped at six. It is the only tour here whose listing says entrance tickets to all sites are in the price, and the only one whose listing then contradicts itself about the hotels. Two reviews.
01What actually happens
This is the widest itinerary in the catalogue and the only one that reaches Aqaba and the Red Sea. Petra gets parts of two days rather than one, which is more than any three-day loop gives it.
The Roman city, 50 km north of Amman.
City tour and Bethany Beyond the Jordan.
Night one.
The mosaic map, then the view over the valley.
Float at −430 m before turning back.
Night two.
235 km on the Desert Highway.
First half of Petra.
Night three.
The second half — time enough for the Monastery.
110 km east. Free time, or an optional jeep tour.
Night four.
The Red Sea. No other tour in this catalogue reaches it.
Qasr al-Mushatta on the way.
End of tour.
Times marked ≈ are derived from the 06:30 pickup and the 3–3.5 h run down the Desert Highway; the operator confirms the exact hours at booking.
02The "from" price is not the cost
$480 for five days is the best price-per-day in this catalogue, and the listing says entrance tickets to all sites are in it. It also says, on the same page, that the hotels are not — while listing them as included. Settle that before you pay.
Real total, per person
≈ $480
If the entrance tickets are included as stated, and the hotels are too. 1 JOD ≈ $1.41.

05The honest line
If one of these is you, leave this page having decided against it. That is the page working.
Two reviews is not enough to commit five days to.
It should not be. This is the widest itinerary here and the thinnest evidence for it.
Petra, Wadi Rum & Dead Sea 2-Day, $249 and 1,529 reviews →You want a private vehicle.
This is a small group, capped at six. Every other multi-day tour in this catalogue offers private.
3-Day Private Petra, Wadi Rum & Dead Sea, $257 →You are here for Petra and nothing else.
Two of the five days touch Petra. The other three are the rest of Jordan, which is the point of the tour and a poor deal if you do not want it.

07Questions with a figure in the answer
Reviews: none printed. Quotes appear only verbatim from GetYourGuide with the reviewer's name and month; until three are harvested, the section does not exist.
The listing says “Entrance tickets to all tourist sites”, with no condition attached — the only unconditional line of its kind in this catalogue. On a ten-site itinerary that is worth a great deal.
The listing says both. Its Included section names accommodation in Petra and Wadi Rum and hotels in Petra; its Not-included section says accommodation is not included in Petra and Wadi Rum. Two nights, both ways, on the same page. Ask before you pay.
Limited to six participants. It is the only group tour in this catalogue that states a cap.
Parts of two days — the afternoon of day three and the morning of day four. That is more than any three-day loop here gives it.
Free up to 24 h before, on GetYourGuide.

Yalla [let's go]. Free cancellation for 24 h. Or take three days, private, $257 instead.
