Wonder at its intricate façade and hear how movies such as Indiana Jones, the Transformers, and the Last Crusade were filmed here. Take photos of this glorious monument and then continue your tour.

See Petra’s ornate tombs cut into the rock face, and admire the stunning theater that once sat 3,000 spectators. As you walk, visit the Byzantine church and hear stories as well as facts about the ingenious Nabateans who chose, carved out, and then made this place their home so long ago. Free time to explore and walk up the Monastery or the High Place of Sacrifice, if time permits. After your walking tour and free time to visit the Petra Museum and for lunch at your own expense finishes. Drive to Wadi Rum. Check in at a Camp of your choice, Bedouin dinner and overnight.
