Highlights
As a Jordanian writer and a tour guide, I can take you on this special tour that is done for the first time ever in Jordan, and in one of the most unique places in the world - Petra. I have graduated from a creative writing Master's degree with a distinction and while I am still creating this novel that I was working on for years, I am happy to announce that I will start doing literal tourism where I can share my knowledge as a local tour guide, and read parts of my fictional work with the participants. This tour will leave you astonished and amazed. It will take you inside a world that normal tourists don't enter, and it will leave you with a deeper understanding of Jordan, and you will carry beautiful memories of the place.

About Petra
Petra is the rose-red Nabataean city carved into the sandstone cliffs of southern Jordan, reached through a narrow gorge called the Siq.
Petra was the capital of the Nabataeans, Arab traders who grew rich on incense and spice caravans and carved tombs, temples and houses into the sandstone cliffs more than two thousand years ago. Visitors enter through the Siq, a narrow winding gorge more than a kilometre long, and emerge facing the Treasury, a rose-coloured facade of columns and statues cut straight into the rock. The city is a World Heritage Site and was voted one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007.
Top-ranked sights in Petra: Shobak Castle (Krak de Montréal), Little Petra (Siq al-Barid), Treasury (al-Khazneh).
