Feel like Indiana Jones in 'The Last Crusade' with this day trip to Petra, the Jordanian city which was once the capital of the Nabataeans.
Day Trip to Petra
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh to begin this excursion. The journey starts with a transfer to Nuweibaa port, approximately two hours away, where we will board a ferry to Aqaba, which takes about two hours.
Upon arrival in Aqaba, we will transfer to a bus for a 2-hour trip to Petra, visiting the archaeological site, the ancient capital of the Nabataeans. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is known for 'The Treasury' (Al Khazneh), a temple carved into the sandstone rock, and notable for its connection to 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'.
We will also see the remains of the amphitheatre and the Corinthian tomb, learning about the Nabataean civilization and the site's historical significance through its stories.
After the visit, an all-you-can-eat buffet lunch will be provided in Petra.
The return journey to Aqaba will be by bus, followed by a ferry back to Nuweibaa. We will then take a bus back to your hotels, with an estimated arrival time around 10 PM.
