Following, will be a charming, ancient city in Northern Jordan, Umm Qais, an important city of the Decapolis where poets and artists were inspired. You will also experience cleansing of a spiritual kind and feel reborn at Bethany Beyond the Jordan, the place where Jesus Christ was baptized by John the Baptist. To continue you will have the chance to get away from everyday life and escape to a place of complete harmony and solitude, the Dead Sea. During the program, we will also visit the endless churches of Madaba known as the city of mosaics as well as visit Mount Nebo, the mountaintop memorial of Moses. Of course Petra is also on the agenda, an entire city carved in stone in the mountains of Wadi al Mujib over 2000 years ago followed by Wadi Rum, one of the most enchanting deserts in the world.
