2. 4 day horse ri ding pr ogram with the 8 day complete tour i n Jordan
Discover the breathtaking scenery of “Laurence of Arabia”
The nature in Jordan is very diverse, breathtakingly beautiful and rugged. One of its natural won-
ders is the most impressive desert landscape in the world; Wadi Rum. This vast, echoing
and colourful desert is a true paradise for nature lovers. The ride takes you from the mountainous
area of Petra with stunning views to the vast sand plains and steep rock formations of Wadi Rum.
Accommodation and food & beverage:
During this unique trip by horse through Jordan's nature you will stay
overnight in dome tents with mattresses. These tents can be shared by
2 people of used as single tent and you put up and take down your
own tent every day, off course assistance is given when needed.
Since we are trekking from one place to another in the nature, the
sanitary facilities will be very basic.
Every morning and evening you can wash yourself; we have cans, tiles,
soap and water for this.
Daily you will enjoy delicious Arabic dishes. For breakfast this will be:
eggs, cheese, hummus, zait and zater, cake, jam, cucumber, tomato,
fruits, bread, tea and coffee, lunch: can be warm dishes with chicken , vegetable and rice, or differ-
ent kind of salads and bread, depending on the weather and the wishes of the guests, dinner: this
will be 3 course with every night a different kind of soup, dishes like ‘sanniya’ (warm dish with
vegetables, potatoes and chicken),‘maglouba’ (rice with spices and chicken or meat and vegeta-
bles), barbeque, fried fish, vegetables, kofta, always combined with fresh salads and as dessert:
fresh fruit and baklava with tea. Tea will always be served and water and soft drinks will be avail-
able at all times in the cool box.
We have catered for many vegetarians, so also this is no problem for our chef. (he will not even use
chicken stock for the soup)
Horses & riding:
You will mainly ride Arabian horses from Jordan, Syria and Iraq, some are crossbreeds. Riders must
be fit, able to trot, canter and gallop at ease and have experience in trail riding. Guests are allowed
to take care of their own horse with water, food, brushing and saddling each stop. We have a dif-
ferent range in horses, from really quiet to quite active. None of the horses are bad tempered as in
bucking or rearing up.
All saddles are English style and made from leather, every horse has a bit and English leather bridle
according to his temperament. The saddle blankets have pockets for a water bottle, camera, sun
cream, etc. So this can be taken along during riding. The jeep will take the luggage and will be
available for the guests on every lunch and dinner/camping stop.
Support team:
There will be an Arabic/ English speaking guide by horse on the tour and a support team of a chef
and a helper or more staff, depending on the amount of guests, average 1 jeep per 5 -6 guests, or a
1 cabin jeep with 8 guests, 2 jeeps with more then 6 – 9 guests. And even 2-3 jeeps & drivers with
12 – 15 riders.

3. Day 1: Arrival day
You arrive this day at Amman Airport and will be assisted by our airport representative in getting
an individual visa, the cost is 20 JOD per passport. Transfer by car and English speaking driver to the
3* hotel in the nice town Madaba. You check in the hotel. The hotels we work with in Madaba are
all family run hotels.
Madaba is a mostly Christian town and the centre is in walking distance of the hotels.
You can visit the St. George church and we can recommend you a very nice Jordanian dinner at the
local and unique style restaurant: Haret Djoudna. This is located in the same street as the church
and the same street with nice souvenir and local shops.
Overnight at the 3* Mariam Hotel (this has a swimming pool, restaurant and bar) or the
3* Rumman Hotel, very nice family hotel also with restaurant or the 3* Salome hotel, also a family
run hotel, all these hotels are located in the same street and very close to each other!
Day 2: Kings Way, Madaba, Kerak Castle - Dana
At 08.30 AM all the guests/ riders will be picked up from the hotel in Madaba, depending on the
amount of guests this will be in a car with English speaking driver or a minivan and in case of a lar-
ger groups, 2 minivans and English speaking drivers.
Today they will spend very nicely via the beautiful scenic Kings High Way to the south, while visit-
ing:
- Mt. Nebo, where Moses saw the promised land and great views over the Dead Sea.
- Madaba, St. George Church with a mosaic floor of the promised land.
- They will pass the Wadi Mujib Dam and can see the great canyon.
- Kerak crusader Castle
Here is also a good location to have lunch, or if the time is OK, they can have lunch in Dana and
have the afternoon off.
After Kerak the drive to Dana is about 1,5 – 2 hours. Upon arrival in the amazing old Dana village of
all natural stones, they guests can check in the simple but cozy hotel and have a walk around in the
village or to the natural spring. Tonight the horses will be close by and Jessica or Rami will come to
the hotel to discuss the details of the ride and you can ask them any questions you have.
Day 3: Start of the 4 days riding! Dana to Showbak
This morning we start early to have a nice fresh climate.
At 08.00 Am we transfer the guests for a few minutes to where the
horses are ready. Please dress in horse riding outfit and take the
needed things with you for the riding (helmet, sun cream and camera).
We will provide water bottles for drinking.
At arrival Rami or the guide will select a suitable horse for each rider.
The horses are already brushed and saddled. And the suitcases will go
in the jeep.
We start riding from here. Today we will ride from the beautiful Dana
mountains to the mountains of Showbak, along the way giving amazing
views over the Dana – Feynan canyon all the way to Wadi Araba. This is a high area in Jordan and
therefore in the summertime nice with a breeze and good temperatures. With lunchtime we will
take a longer break in the shade and enjoy our surroundings or a nice nap in between.
After the lunch we ride towards Showbak where we will camp in the mountains, we provide the
tents and mattresses. When we arrive, again the horses are tied first and the saddles are taken off,
the horses are given water and food, then the guests can set up their tents. Tea is already made
and by the time everyone sits down, dinner will be served on a table (small buffet style).
The campfire is made and the first evening under the stars can be enjoyed!

4. Day 4: Showbak to Little Petra
Breakfast is usually served around 07.30 – 08.00 am, the guests take down their tent, brush and
saddle their horses and the riding usually starts at 09.00 – 09.30 am.
Depending on the weather and the wishes of the client, we can make an early visit to Showbak cas-
tle before we start riding.
The jeep will be loaded again and will catch up with the group later and drive towards the lunch
location where they will all meet again.
Today we will ride via the mountains of Showbak to Little Petra, here it starts to be more green,
great views and when coming over the mountain from Showbak to Little Petra, there are great
views over Little Petra and Wadi Araba.
After the lunch, everyone brushes and saddles his horses and the riding will be now into the moun-
tains of Little Petra, a stunning nature area.
Tonight we will camp in Little Petra with a campfire and stories can be told under the beautiful
starry sky!
Day 5: Little Petra – Petra
After breakfast, everyone brushes and saddles the horses and the third day of riding begins. Little
Petra has irrigation of the waste water from Wadi Musa, so there are many fields year round of
Alfalfa/ Luzern, a very nutritious kind of hay, and in between all the trees, mountains and green
fields, we ride yet into another area where hardly anyone comes, maybe here and there we will see
some Bedouins with the goat and sheep and some Bedouin tents.
Today we will make sure the lunch is in the shade!
We ride more in little Petra and in the afternoon we can even visit the site of Little Petra, not on
horse though.
From here we will bring the guest to the hotel Petra Palace, where they can have a nice shower and
a dip in the swimming pool. We have not offered the dinner in the hotel, since we like to offer
them dinner in the Bedouin style restaurant, Sun City, but with food of 5* quality hotels!
The reason we sleep in a hotel in the tourist street of Petra, is that tomorrow we are going to do
something special!! We will ride into Petra with the horses!!! And for this special way, we need to
leave very early, otherwise we will not get this special permission of the authorities.
The horses will be transported to the beginning of Petra today and the staff will take care of the
horses and the materials.
Overnight at the 3* Petra Palace Hotel.

5. Day 6: PETRA – Jabal Haroon
Last day of riding! And it will be a very special ride.
We will ride at 06.00 AM in the morning via the gate and the Siq to the treasury of Petra, this is nor-
mally not allowed anymore. And they will only give you the permission if you leave at 06.00 AM in
the morning.
We will ride via the Siq like Indiana Jones to the treasury to the Roman theatre, street of Facades,
Colonnaded street, where we will turn left towards the snake monument and Jabal Haroon.
Since it was very early this morning, we can do a tea/ coffee stop with sweets & cake at the snake
monument before riding towards Jabal Haroon. This is the mountain where Aron the brother of
Moses is buried.
At the last part of this trail to Jabal Haroon, we will get off the horses and tight them. We will walk
to last part to the Haron Tomb ( Aron's grave tomb). We have great views from here.
They have build a white dome that was a little Church before, then it was a mosque and now it is a
little Pelgrims place, where you can burn a candle and send your prayers to your God.
Once we have climbed Jabal Haroon and we come down, the lunch will be served!!
And we can have a nice break!
After the break we ride the horses back into Petra, but we will take the back way now to Um Sa-
hoon Village, where you will be transferred back to the hotel and the horses will be transferred
from here to their stables.
Tonight you can sleep again in the nice 3* Petra Palace, have a swim or even go to the Turkish bath,
close to the hotel for a nice steam bath, body scrub and soap massage, very good to relax to mus-
cles.
Dinner can be in one of the many restaurants that we have in Wadi Musa, Sun City, Al Qantarah,
Red Cave, Thousand and one night, etc.
Overnight at the Petra Palace Hotel.

6. Day 7: Petra or Wadi Rum and overnight in Madaba

tected area of Wadi Rum.
