The experience
The tour starts with a one-hour drive from your Amman hotel through Jordan's desert landscape in a private air-conditioned vehicle with your own English-speaking driver. You arrive at the Dead Sea, the lowest point on the planet at 400 meters below sea level, where the mineral-rich water lets you float without effort. A physical sensation that has drawn travelers for thousands of years. There is no fixed schedule. You spend as long as you want in the water and applying the therapeutic mud that the Dead Sea is famous for.
If you book the all-inclusive resort option, you gain access to swimming pools, spa treatments and beach facilities beyond the open water. The transportation-only option gets you to the Dead Sea and back. You arrange your own entry and facilities once you arrive. Either way, your driver waits and returns you to your hotel in Amman, with time to relax during the drive back while the minerals settle.
On the return, you have the choice to stop at a local shop selling beauty and skin-care products made from Dead Sea mud, salt and minerals: a chance to bring the experience home if you want to. The entire outing runs four to five hours from pickup to drop-off.
