Two weeks in Jordan sounds like plenty of time, but trust me: it flies by. Fortunately, you can see all the highlights in that time without constantly being stuck in the car, from the bustling capital Amman to the desert of Wadi Rum, from history in Petra to floating in the Dead Sea. This route takes you to everything that makes Jordan special without rushing around like crazy.
