Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Jordan takes roughly 28 hours with a stopover. A long flight is a small price to pay for the culture, history and beauty you're about to be immersed in.
Magic in the mountains, stories in the sand
Jordan is a land where history, culture and stunning landscapes come together in a tapestry of marvels. Be awe-struck by the rose-red city of Petra, float effortlessly in the Dead Sea, or explore the Mars-like beauty of Wadi Rum – where the sunsets feel otherworldly.
In vibrant Amman, Roman ruins sit alongside lively souks, while Madaba and Mt Nebo reveal ancient mosaics and sweeping biblical views.
Hike through wild desert beauty, uncover archaeological treasures, and connect with local culture along the way. Jordan’s legendary hospitality and rich cuisine have to be experienced to be believed – think smoky baba ganoush, crisp falafel and fragrant mansaf shared over stories and sweet tea. You’ll feel like you’ve made lifelong friends everywhere you go.
Whether you’re following the footsteps of prophets, stargazing from a Bedouin camp, or simply soaking up a slower way of life, Jordan is unforgettable in every sense.
Let our Jordan specialists craft your perfect adventure – your story begins here.
Best time to go
March to May and September to November are the best times for outdoor adventures as they fall between the cold winter rains and hot summer sun.
Time difference
Jordan is 9–11 hours behind New Zealand depending on daylight saving in both countries. You'll adjust, but it might take a few days till day is night and night is day.

With nearly two decades at House of Travel, I’m always dreaming of the next adventure. The more I explore, the longer my bucket list grows! The thrill of planning a new journey and learning from each experience excites me.
Discussing travel daily is my passion, I love helping clients realize their travel dreams and living vicariously through their experiences.
Getting to know my clients and understanding what matters most to them is something I truly enjoy. This insight allows me to craft itineraries that are as unique and special as the travelers themselves.
There's nothing more satisfying than a client returning with tales of their adventures. I love hearing their stories, as each journey is different—there's no one-size-fits-all approach to travel.
For me, travel offers the opportunity to learn more about the world around us. With every journey, I find new perspectives, cultures, and places to love.
Travel isn’t just about the places we visit—it's about the growth we experience along the way.
