9 Days | Celestial & Terrestrial: An Intimate Spiritual Journey

Walk the Pilgrim’s Path through Jordan — a sacred land where prophets stood, miracles unfolded, and faith took root in stone and scripture. This extended 9-day spiritual journey invites you to trace the footsteps of saints and seekers, from the baptismal waters of the Jordan River to the silence of Petra and the vast stillness of Wadi Rum.

Spend time in landscapes where divine encounters once occurred — the mountains of Moses and Elijah, the wilderness of John the Baptist, and the early Christian towns etched in mosaic and memory. Along the way, pause for reflection beside the Dead Sea, pray at holy shrines in Anjara and Madaba, and explore ancient cities like Jerash, Umm Qais, and Kerak.

With your private escort/driver and knowledgeable local guides, the journey flows with intention and care — allowing you the space to reconnect, reflect, and walk deeper into a story of enduring faith.
