Five days · Four nights

The Shorter Way

Four nights, and the places a first group most wants to stand in. No desert camp, no long transfers, no week away from the pulpit.

In short

  • Bethany Beyond the Jordan, Mount Nebo and Madaba in one day
  • A full touring day at Petra
  • A night at the Dead Sea
  • Karak on the road south
