About This Experience in Petra

Join Um Ayemen and her family in Petra for a warm, home-cooked experience that feels like visiting old friends. Begin your visit with a welcoming cup of Arabic coffee as you settle into the family home. Then, mix and match activities — visit the local market to choose fresh ingredients, bake traditional bread, or cook Jordanian favorites such as Mansaf, Maqlouba, and stuffed grape leaves right in the family kitchen. If you’re short on time, you can simply join for dining, or stop by for tea and a friendly chat. As the dishes come together, share stories and laughter while learning about Bedouin life and family traditions. Finally, gather around the table to enjoy the meal you helped create — a true taste of Jordan, filled with connection, hospitality, and heart.
