Take it from someone who lived and has been to all three countries youve mentioned: Spend most of your time in Palestine/Israel.. There isnt much to see in Jordan..And petra is over rated. Check out Bethlehem in Palestine, or The old city in occupied east jerusalem. You want a modern/european experience? Go to Telaviv.. Visit the arab villages of the Gallilee, or maybe some Kibbutzim... Go To ramlallah, See Haifa and Jafa... Stay maybe one or two nights in amman, the dead sea experience from Jordan is probably cheaper for you. I dont know, but the only place that always lives up to my expectations is Palestine. They pyramids and petra were less than I expected, but they are still worth seeing.
