Leave your hotel and travel 55 kilometres to the Baptism Site, located on the east bank of the Jordan River. Recognised by the Vatican during Pope John Paul II’s visit in 2000, this sacred place is believed to be the official site where Jesus Christ was baptized. It’s a deeply spiritual destination and an important pilgrimage site, meaningful to visitors of various faiths. Baptisms and symbolic re-baptisms can be arranged upon request. The site also holds significance in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as it’s traditionally associated with the ascension of the Prophet Elijah into heaven.
After exploring the Baptism Site, continue your journey to the Dead Sea—the lowest point on Earth at 400 metres below sea level. This extraordinary natural wonder is mentioned in the biblical storey of Sodom and Gomorrah and is known for its extreme salinity and mineral-rich waters. There are no living fish, but its healing properties and unique floating experience make it one of the most unforgettable places to visit in Jordan. Enjoy a relaxing swim and soak in the therapeutic mud while surrounded by stunning desert landscapes.
At the end of your tour, you will be comfortably returned to your hotel.
