Explore Famous & Unknown Petra

Camels and lions carved into sandstone. Nabataean wonder stretching far across a red desert. The famous Treasury, the distant Monastery. Petra is deservedly one of the world seven wonders.
Explore this ancient city with a local Bedouin guide. Wander a narrow canyon, walls rising higher and higher, before drinking sweet tea in front of the Treasury. Discover epic rock-cut tombs and a street of facades. See what the Romans built after the Nabateans and keep walking, into the mountains and the Monastery.
That’s one day in famous Petra. To really explore Petra you need more time. On a second day you can hike the back routes, such as the trail to the Place of High Sacrifice, or a Bedouin route connecting Little Petra with Petra. With a local guide you can avoid tourist crowds.
