Petra - Wadi Musa
You will leave the hotel early in the morning to drive south to the Nabatean Red Rose City of Petra, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, from the back end visit of Petra, a city 245 kilometers from the capital city of Amman, carved in stone more than 2000 years ago in order to dominate the trade silk and spice routes of ancient Arabia.

The Royal Tombs
First, you will walk thru the back end from Little Petra (Beida) – Siq Albarid to the farming village going up the mountains for an exceptional breath-taking view of the Monastery, then descend to the Byzantine Church and Qasr el Bint. Proceed to walk thru Wadi Farasa to see the Lion Fountain, Garden Triclinium, and the Roman Soldiers Tomb. You will enjoy the different stone colors and caves.

Siq
This tour ends by returning thru the “siq”, a narrow path of 1.2 kilometers then to the main entrance of the visitor’s center. As you explore, listen as your guide describes how the Nabateans sculpted the buildings, and learn how they mastered the harsh desert conditions to make their lives here. Enjoy free time to visit The Petra Museum; if there is time, then rejoin your vehicle and driver. Journey back to Amman, where your day trip ends with a hotel drop off. Please wear comfortable shoes and bring a sunhat for this unforgettable adventure. Come and explore one of the world’s wonders of architectural engineering combined with the ingenuity of carving for an unforgettable adventure just like that of the Indiana Jones and the Transformers!
