Meditation & Yoga Retreats in Jordan

Jordan's small retreat scene takes advantage of unique desert and historical landscapes. Wadi Rum hosts silent and yoga retreats in Bedouin-run desert camps — combining practice with desert hikes and stargazing. The Dead Sea hosts wellness-resort retreats. The Christian monastic tradition is alive at several ancient sites; Petra is a historical-spiritual destination rather than a retreat center. Arabic and English are both used at international-facing centers. Best seasons run March–May and September–November. Most Western passports get visa-on-arrival or e-visa. Cost: $900–$2,500 for a week.
