Itinéraire

  1. We will pick you up from anywhere in Aqaba & drive to Petra with a short stop on the way. It takes around 2 hours to reach Petra Visitors Center where we start our walking journey to the World’s 8th wonder. After walking 800 m we reach Siq (a rock canal that measures 1200 meters in length, 3 to 12 meters in width, and reaches up to 80 meters in height). The Siq opens up onto Petra’s most magnificent façade – the Treasury, or Al Khazna. After the Treasury, the path broadens into a wide Street of Facades flanked on either side by the tombs that characterize the entire site. The Street of Facades leads us to the 5,000-seat theatre, carved right in the middle of a major cemetery area: Across from the theater at the western side of Jebel Khubtha we reach our final point – Royal Tombs. After a tour of the Royal Tombs, back to Aqaba. The remaining four hours are for transportation.

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.
