We will meet at your hotel in Amman at 07:00 to begin our journey south through Jordan, traveling across desert landscapes toward Petra. Along the way, our English-speaking driver will share insights into the history and scenery of the region as we make our way to this ancient Nabataean city, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Before reaching the main site, we will make a brief visit to Little Petra, a small sandstone valley whose rock-carved structures are connected to the ancient Nabataean trade routes. We will then continue to Petra, where we will meet our local English-speaking guide to begin the guided tour.
We will enter the city through the famous Siq, a narrow gorge stretching approximately 1.2 kilometers and leading to one of Jordan’s most iconic monuments: the Treasury, or Al-Khazneh. During the approximately two-hour tour, we will discover some of Petra’s most important monuments, including the Theatre, the Royal Tombs and the Byzantine Church, while learning how the Nabataeans developed this extraordinary city in the heart of the desert.
After the guided tour, we will have some free time to continue exploring Petra at our own pace, depending on the time available. Those who wish may visit other areas of the site, such as the Monastery or the High Place of Sacrifice, always taking into account the available time and walking conditions. There will also be an opportunity to visit the Petra Museum, if time permits.
At the end of the visit, we will meet our driver again and begin the journey back to Amman. The excursion will conclude at approximately 19:00 with drop-off at your hotel.
Greca Tip: Petra involves considerable walking over uneven terrain, so we recommend wearing comfortable shoes and bringing sun protection and water to enjoy the experience comfortably.
