About this activity
Itinerary
Day 1: Amman/ Petra/ Wadi Rum (3H drive to Petra, then 2H drive to Wadi Rum)
Stop At: Petra - Wadi Musa 77110 Jordan
Morning departure from Amman south towards Petra in a modern, air conditioned vehicle driven by one of our professional English speaking drivers. Arriving 3 hours later to explore Jordan's best known attraction and the UNESCO World Heritage site. Petra, the Rose-Red City, was the impressive capital of the Nabataean kingdom, whose ruins remained hidden to most of the world until the Swiss explorer, JL Burckhardt, disguised as an Arab scholar, infiltrated the city in 1812. It is a one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Walk down the Siq, a long, winding sandstone canyon that leads to the impressive Treasury. Explore the city, including the Street of Facades, the Roman Theater and the Royal Tombs. Depart Petra towards Wadi Rum.
Duration: 5 hours
Stop At: Wadi Rum Protected Area, Wadi Rum Jordan
Wadi Rum has recently been inscribed by UNESCO as a new World Heritage Site displaying unique natural beauty and cultural significance. Inhabited since prehistoric times, it owes its current fame to Lawrence of Arabia, who spent time there during the Arab Revolt of 1916 against the Ottomans. It is Jordan's largest desert and one of the most impressive desert landscapes in the world. From the terrain, flora, and fauna, the sites, and the culture of the local Bedouins, there is much to be seen and experienced in Rum, whether it be on a jeep tour, camel trek, hiking or even on a hot-air balloon ride. Arrive to your camp in the middle of the desert. Dinner and overnight.
Duration: 15 hours
Meals included:
• Dinner: Traditional dinner at your camp in Wadi Rum
Accommodation included: Overnight at a tourist camp in Wadi Rum
