Visiting Petra is a magical and memorable experience that can be enjoyed in one day on this Petra tour from Eilat. One of the Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Petra is truly a treasure and a site not to be missed when visiting Jordan.

The tour begins from Eilat and you'll travel towards the border between Israel and Jordan. With full assistance, pass the border (visa and border fees are not included in the tour price). Once in Jordan, drive past the stunning Wadi Rum desert landscape en route to Petra. With a knowledgeable and English-speaking guide, enjoy a guided tour throughout the protected park. Enter through the Siq, a long and narrow passageway upon the entrance filled with unique details including carvings and shrines. See the history of the “lost city” of the Nabateans visiting historic and ancient sites like the Treasury, Obelisk Tomb, Jabal Madbach (the sacrificial palace), Roman Theater and Mountaintop Tombs.

After two hours of guiding through these sites, enjoy time to explore Petra at your own pace, taking time to explore at leisure and marvel at the beauty. Later in the afternoon, it will be time to head back to the border, passing by Wadi Rum again for a quick view before arriving at the border and crossing into Eilat. The tour will last about 11 hours, but you will spend 4–6 hours in Petra.
