Jordan Hiking & Dead Sea Adventure

A moderate level of fitness is required. You won’t need to be super fit, but you should be in good shape and feel comfortable hiking up to 6 hours a day. There will be a few exposed sections so those with vertigo may not be too comfortable. Your guide will never be far away to help you get through it though.

Please see the section above for trip inclusions and exclusions.

You will be picked up from your hotel in Amman on Day 2 early, at 8:00 AM. Airport transfers are not included in this trip. The main airport (QAIA - Queen Alia International Airport) is approximately 1-hour outside of Amman. Airport transfers are not included in this trip price. We can arrange a transfer from the airport to Amman (at the start of the trip) for an extra $50 per car per way. The other best way is to take a taxi from the airport. There are a lot of services near the airport that can arrange transfers to the hotel. The prices are approximately the same.

The amount you tip is entirely up to you. A good rule of thumb is US$5 per day for your guide and US$3 per day for the driver.

The maximum group size is 15 people. The tour operator takes bookings from a few different platforms, so there may be more people on your trip than appear on Skyhook.

The weather in the summer can get very hot, especially in the desert, with daytime temperatures averaging between 32-36 degrees celsius. May to Oct is likely to be sunny and warm, while the nights are alot cooler. Rain is unlikely but not unheard of, so do be prepared, especially if travelling between November and March.

The minimum age for this trip is 18 years. We can sometimes accommodate families with younger kids on private trips. Message Skyhook (info@skyhookadventure.com) if you would like to enquire.

This is a seasonal trip and we operate it from May till the beginning of September. If you are interested in dates between this time, you are welcome to get in touch. We may be able to open new dates for groups.
