Explore The Wonders of Petra in one Day!!

Itinerary

Day 1

Early in the morning you will be transferred to Taba port to catch the ferry at 7:00 AM to Aqaba in Jordan (running time 45 min.). In Aqaba you meet your tour guide who helps you with immigration procedures, then drive around 1.5 hours by bus to the rock city Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The Arab Nabateans carved over 2000 years ago magnificent buildings in the sandstone which you discover today. You can ride on horse back or walk to the Siq, a narrow canyon, and walk 1.2 km through the gorge and enjoy the beautiful carvings of statues, idols and niches on the way to the Treasury, the most beautiful monument. You see also the Street of Facades, the Roman Theatre, the Royal Tombs, the Roman Colonnaded Street and Qasr al-Bint. Lunch will be inside Petra. Around 16.00 PM you leave Petra and drive back to Aqaba port to catch the ferry at 6:00 PM to Taba.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
