9 Day Classic Jordan Dinner Package After the day's sightseeing, enjoy dinner at your hotels in Amman, Petra and the Dead Sea. All dinners are international buffet style and include one soft drink or water.* Pre-purchasing these six dinners is both a convenience and a way to lock in the price for your meals regardless of currency fluctuations. *4 course meal if buffet is not available. OnDay : 2 Price : $205 Half Day Bethany This morning, travel to the religious site of Bethany to explore first-hand the foundations of Christianity. The site of John the Baptist's settlement at Bethany where Jesus was baptized has long been known from the Bible and from Byzantine and medieval texts. The site has now been identified on the east bank of the Jordan River in Jordan, only 15 minutes by car from the Dead Sea Hotel. The Bethany area site formed part of the early Christian pilgrimage route between Jerusalem, the Jordan River, and Mount Nebo. This area is also associated with the biblical account of how the Prophet Elijah (Mar Elias in Arabic) ascended to heaven in a whirlwind on a chariot of fire. This is not to be confused with the village of Bethany near Jerusalem, where the Bible says Lazarus was raised from the dead. After the tour transfer back to your hotel. Approximate tour duration is 3 hours. OnDay : 8 Price : $75
