An ancient land where prophets once roamed, Jordan is home to biblical landmarks, beautiful architecture, and the famed Dead Sea.
Our team of A&K guides are on the ground in Amman, Petra, and Aqaba to ensure your every need is tended to. We pioneer luxury holidays that offer seldom-seen glimpses into Jordan’s culture and history; from private dinners at Little Petra to picturesque sundowners at Wadi Rum, you’ll enjoy a unique experience of this self-contained destination.
Admire the famous 6th century mosaic map of Jerusalem and the Holy Land in Madaba, the city of mosaics. Wander through narrow laneways of carefully curated shops in the 19th century walled village of Kan Zaman. Treat yourself to an unforgettable afternoon spent floating in the rejuvenating mineral waters of the Dead Sea. All this and more awaits.
Though Jordan is steeped in history, the country’s varied landscapes and stunning natural displays make it suited to travellers of all interests. Our catalogue of luxury getaways are fully customisable to cater to your preferences; we pride ourselves on personalising itineraries filled with hand-picked activities that showcase Jordan’s undeniable allure.
Accompanied by an experienced and knowledgeable A&K guide, thousands of years of history will magically come to life before your eyes. You’ll hike the Dana Nature Reserve; embark on a private tour of Madrasati, an innovative grassroots project to rehabilitate local schools; and travel the King’s Highway, an ancient trade route and access point for many of the country’s historic sights.
We also incorporate visits to two of Jordan’s most popular destinations: the Rose-Red City of Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose tombs, temples, and monuments were painstakingly hewn from solid mountain rock; and the Dead Sea, a serene spot located 400m below sea level. Other highlights include the quiet hilltop temples and theatres of Jerash, the National Archaeological Museum in Amman, and picture-perfect views atop Mt Nebo.

Chiselled from the imposing red cliffsides some 2,000 years ago, the lost city of Petra snakes its way through a vast, winding gorge. This sprawling complex of dwellings, baths, temples, tombs and markets was built by the Nabataeans and later occupied by the Romans. After the Byzantine era, Petra lay largely forgotten until a Swiss explorer rediscovered it in 1812. Today it stands as Jordan’s most treasured UNESCO World Heritage Site.
For a thousand years, the valleys of Wadi Rum offered the nomadic Bedouin passage to the Arabian Peninsula. It was from Wadi Rum that T.E. Lawrence and his allies mounted daring raids on Aqaba and Damascus during World War I. Explore the region’s towering dunes and rose-red mountains, taking in the romantic atmosphere captured in the classic film, Lawrence of Arabia.
The Jordanian climate and its basalt Black Desert combine to provide one of the world’s most distinctive terroirs growing more than 40 grape varieties, which are handpicked and crafted into more than 20 wine varietals.

Founded by Alexander the Great, Jerash boasts a staggering wealth of remarkably intact Greco-Roman ruins, including grand temples, theatres and colonnaded avenues. Walk the Roman Cardo as your guide reveals grooves made by the chariot wheels of empires past.
