eventDetails.eventDescription

A three-hour hands-on workshop in the heart of Madaba — the City of Mosaics — that connects you with centuries of local craft. Meet your host on King Al Hussein Street and walk together to The Duke's Mosaic Centre. After a short introduction to the Byzantine and Syrian traditions behind Jordanian mosaic-making, you'll tour the gallery and hear the story behind each piece. Then it's your turn: step by step, you'll cut and place tiles to create your own small artwork inspired by Jordanian motifs — a souvenir you'll take home and keep forever. Materials and equipment are included; suitable for beginners, easy difficulty, groups of 1-10.

Experience Jordan Tour — 8 Days

A complete eight-day circuit of Jordan's icons with Zaid Tours & Travel. Begin in Amman with a Rainbow Street, Boulevard and Jabal Weibdeh walking tour and a traditional Arabic breakfast. Walk the colonnades of Jerash, stand on Mount Nebo where Moses saw the Holy Land, and watch artisans piece together mosaics in Madaba. Explore the Umayyad Desert Castles and the black-basalt ruins of Umm el-Jimal, then head south to Petra — ride the Siq to the Treasury and cook your own dinner at the Petra Kitchen. Sunset finds you in a Bedouin camp under the stars of Wadi Rum, and the journey closes with a float in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth.

Adventure Nature Jordan Tour — 9 Days

Nine days of hiking, canyons and candle-lit eco-lodges with Zaid Tours & Travel. After a panoramic Amman city tour and the colonnades of Jerash, climb into the oak forests of the Ajloun Reserve. Hike the self-guided Siq Trail through the Wadi Mujib gorge, then spend two nights at the award-winning Wadi Feynan Ecolodge — one of the world's top 25 eco hotels — where sunset hikes, copper-mine walks and rooftop stargazing are on offer. Cross the sandstone cliffs of Dana Reserve, wander Little Petra, then enter the rose-red city of Petra itself. A 4x4 jeep carries you across the dunes of Wadi Rum to a Bedouin dinner and overnight camp, with time for a Red Sea beach stop in Aqaba before a final float in the Dead Sea.
