Full description
Discover the site that UNESCO described as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage.” One of the 7 New Wonders of the World, Petra was constructed in the 3rd century BC. It encompasses a series of massive temples, tombs, and structures carved into the red desert mountains. There are no other locales on earth that compare to the immensity, ancient craftsmanship, and sheer beauty of the ruins at Petra. Begin your tour with pickup from your hotel in Aqaba, at which point you’ll be driven directly to the site. After ambling through the vast rock formations that form a canopy above the desert sky, you’ll get your first glimpse of the ancient city. Tour the monolithic treasury, mourning halls, caves, tombs, temples — and more breathtaking sights of this one-of-a-kind locale.  After your visit concludes and you stop at the gift shop, you’ll stop for lunch at a restaurant specializing in local delicacies. You’ll return at around 7:00 PM to your hotel, in perfect time to digest the sights over dinner.

Caroline – BrazilJuly 15, 2023 – Verified booking
There was a problem with the time given to me and the group, but it was promptly resolved by the team. Transport is comfortable and the guide is excellent. We were with a rather slow group, so the visit was guided only to “the treasure”, being free (without a guide) in the rest of the park. Lunch was a simple but delicious buffet. At the end of the tour I was the only one who wasn't going to cross back to Israel and the agency didn't know it would take me back to the hotel, but it was also promptly resolved by the staff.

I was traveling with the MSC Splendida and booked via Get your guide Petra. From the ship there is a free shuttle bus every 5 minutes to the Hilton Double Tree (2 minutes on foot from the bus stop). There we picked up the tour, the bus even brought everyone back to the ship, several guests from the ship were there. Everything was very well organized!

GetYourGuide traveler – GermanyApril 4, 2023 – Verified booking
The excursion was very successful and organized simply. The guide gave (in English) very interesting information about the country and its people and put a lot of effort into it. Petra is a huge experience, although if you don't follow the guide along the way and walk alone, you'll have more time to look around. Lunch after visiting Petra was relatively simple, but very good and, in particular, usable without any effort (buffet).
