1 or 2-Day Petra Excursion

Travel more than 2000 years back in time and discover one of the 7 Wonders of the Modern World on this 1 or 2-day trip to Petra. You can return to Tel Aviv on the same day or spend the night at this archaeological site.

Description

Day 1: Tel Aviv - Petra

At the scheduled time, we will collect you from the Dan Panorama Hotel in Tel Aviv to begin the excursion to Petra. The journey between Israel and Jordan along the highway will take around 5 hours. We'll traverse the Siq Gorge and the ancient Nabataean capital, with origins dating back around 2300 years.

During our tour of Petra, we'll explore the Nabataeans' history, including their beliefs and traditions, while visiting iconic structures such as the Petra Treasury, the theatre, the Royal Tomb, and the Djinn Blocks. Afterward, we'll have lunch at a local restaurant and end the day at a hotel in Wadi Musa for rest.

Day 2: Petra - Tel Aviv

On the second day, after breakfast, you will have the day to explore Petra independently. Notable sites include the Petra Monastery, the columned street, and the Great Temple. These monuments, carved from reddish-coloured rocks, give Petra its nickname, the Rose City.

At around 4:30 pm, we will begin our journey back to Israel, returning you to the meeting point in Tel Aviv close to midnight.

Accommodation

This tour includes a night of accommodation with breakfast at either the 3-star Venus Hotel Petra or the 4-star Sella Hotel Petra, depending on your preference. Accommodation will be in double beds in Wadi Musa, with alternatives provided if necessary.

1-Day Trip to Petra

If you prefer a shorter duration trip, book the 1-day trip to Petra, which returns you to Tel Aviv between midnight and 1 am. This option includes admission to the archaeological site, a guide, and lunch.
