Jordan's most important archaeological site and a World Heritage desert are the focus of this 2-day tour to Petra and Wadi Rum.

Itinerary

Day 1: Eilat - Aqaba - Wadi Rum

The tour begins in Eilat where participants will board a bus to cross from Israel into Jordan to visit Aqaba. Highlights include a tour of the narrow streets, the grand mosque, and a visit to a 16th-century Ottoman fortress for views of the borders between Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. After free time for lunch, the group will head to Wadi Rum for a 4x4 desert safari in the Valley of the Moon, known for its striking landscapes and as a filming location for Star Wars. The day concludes with dinner and an overnight stay at the desert camp.
