Highlights

"Match me such a marvel save in eastern clime, a rose-red city half as old as time"      Dean Burgon                                                                                Visit the world wonder - the red-rose city of Petra, curved out of the red-rose sand stones by Arab Nabataeans 2000 years ago. Those brilliant traders controlled the most important trade routes in their time, which made them wealthy and open to the most known civilizations, all reflected in their architecture, their temples and funeral tombs curved by their own hands as a harmonic  mixture of these great civilizations. No more than 2 hour drive from Aqaba will take you to that wonder. Jordan Echo Tours offer one day guided tour by modern air conditioned cars and vans and professional guides who speak different languages.

About Aqaba

Aqaba is Jordan's only seaport, a warm Red Sea resort town at the head of its gulf, backed by desert mountains and near Wadi Rum and Petra.

Aqaba sits at the head of the Gulf of Aqaba, at the north end of the Red Sea, with the mountains of Edom behind it and Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia on the other shores of the gulf. Jordan's only seaport, it has been a trading place since ancient times, and an early Islamic city, Ayla, has excavated remains on the seafront. The fort near the harbour dates from the Mamluk period, and Aqaba fell to the forces of the Arab Revolt in 1917.
