Even though the start was a bit late it turned out to be a great tour, our guide was well prepared, shared a lot of info and usefull tips for our time in Petra where the visit was ~4h with ~2h free time. Lunch was after the visit but there are shops for snacks. Overall a great experience!

Very nice thank you. It is not your fault, but the vendors inside Petra will not leave you alone. And they lie to you, and cheat you out of a lot of money .

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.

The trip was amazing. I just wish I had more time. I would have started earlier to spend more time at the site. Ebrahim, my driver was fantastic and helpful. My guide Kamahl was great and knowledgeable.
