Enter the Rose City of Petra through the SiqPetra is an extraordinary archaeological site in Jordan famously described as "a rose-red city half as old as time" in a Newdigate prize-winning sonnet by John William Burgon. It lies on the slopes of Mount Hor among mountains, carved out of red rock and it is one of the new wonders of the world. The city was built by the Nabateans as their capital around 100 BCE. In 1985, Petra was designated a World Heritage Site. In this full day Petra tour you will see the inspiring Treasury building, a spectacular amphitheatre, Moses Spring, and a short city tour of Aqaba. |

Leave Eilat in the morning, cross the Arava border and drive to Petra through the scenic Jordanian desert, past the Wadi Rum area, where Lawrence of Arabia once lived and fought with the Bedouin. Enter the Rose City of Petra through the Siq, a narrow passage through the mountains which has inspired awe for centuries - up to the treasury which suddenly appears at the end of the gorge, leaving the visitors breath-taken by it's size, colour and beauty. Continue into the heart of this ancient city carved into the mountains, passing hundreds of tombs and monuments and a spectacular Amphitheatre which once held 3,000 spectators. After our visit to Petra, a stop for a sit-down lunch, followed by a visit to Moses Spring before leaving Wadi Moussa (the new town of Petra).
