PRIVATE 1 DAY PETRA FROM ARAVA BORDER
Day 1: Arava Border – Petra – Arava Border
Our representative will meet you upon arrival on the Jordanian side of Arava Border and assist with your entry and visa to Jordan. After, continue the 2-hour drive to Petra for the site visit with a guided 3-hour tour. The site is accessed by walking through a kilometer-long chasm (known as the Siq), the walls of which soar to a height of 200m. Petra's most famous monument, the Treasury, appears dramatically at the end of the Siq, carved out of the sheer, dusky-pink rock face. Miraculously well preserved, this massive 43-meter-high façade dwarfs everything around it and perfectly represents the engineering genius of the Nabataeans. While you wander through literally hundreds of tombs, temples and colonnaded streets, your mind finds it easy to picture caravans loaded with frankincense, spices and textiles travelling through the Siq. After the guided tour, have lunch inside Petra at Al Basin Restaurant, then you have some free time to discover more of Petra's beautiful and awe-inspiring buildings and scenery. After, we start the 2-hour return drive to Arava Border.
