From Amman: Full day Petra & Wadi Rum Tour

Embark on a journey through Jordan's most iconic destinations, beginning with the ancient city of Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stands as a testament to the ingenuity and artistry of the Nabateans. As you approach Petra through the narrow, winding Siq, anticipation builds with every step. The towering sandstone cliffs give way to the breathtaking sight of the Treasury, its intricate façade carved directly into the rose-red rock. This is only the beginning of your exploration. Petra’s sprawling site offers countless wonders, from the vast amphitheater to the intricately adorned Royal Tombs. Venture to the Monastery, perched high above the city, where panoramic views reward those who ascend its many steps.

After immersing yourself in Petra’s rich history, indulge in a delicious Jordanian lunch, savoring the flavors of traditional dishes that reflect the country’s vibrant culinary heritage. Refreshed and rejuvenated, set your sights on the majestic desert landscapes of Wadi Rum, often referred to as the “Valley of the Moon.” This sprawling wilderness is renowned for its dramatic rock formations, vast dunes, and unearthly vistas.

Your Wadi Rum adventure begins with a thrilling jeep safari, expertly guided by local Bedouins who know every corner of the desert. Traverse the golden sands as you uncover ancient petroglyphs etched into rock faces, evidence of civilizations that once thrived in this harsh environment. The towering cliffs and natural arches create a backdrop so surreal it has served as a filming location for countless movies, including "The Martian."

But Wadi Rum isn’t just about the scenery. It’s an opportunity to connect with the Bedouin culture, where warm hospitality is a way of life. Enjoy a traditional tea ceremony and listen to stories passed down through generations. For those who choose to extend their stay, the desert offers unparalleled stargazing, as the clear night sky reveals a tapestry of constellations far from the lights of modern civilization.

This carefully curated tour is designed to immerse you in the beauty and culture of Jordan. Whether it’s walking in the footsteps of ancient traders in Petra or feeling the thrill of the desert winds in Wadi Rum, every moment is crafted to leave a lasting impression.

Your journey concludes with a comfortable drive back to Amman, giving you time to reflect on the day’s incredible experiences. This full-day adventure combines history, natural beauty, and adventure, making it an unforgettable highlight of your time in Jordan.
