Description:
Considered the jewel in Jordan’s crown, Petra is a wondrous sight. Enter the city through the Siq—a narrow gorge flanked with imposing cliffs. Observe the engineering brilliance of the Nabataeans, marvel at the extensive archaeological remains, and admire what is a charming geological phenomenon.
Journey south from Amman on a full-day tour to Petra. Entering the city is all part of the adventure, as the path meanders through a narrow chasm lined with cliffs more than 250 feet (80 m) high. Wonder as the inspiring façade of Al-Khazneh (the Treasury) emerges and the city dwarfs its surroundings.
On your tour of the ancient city's highlights, see the grand amphitheater, the Royal Tombs, striking colonnaded streets, and the prominent monastery perched above. Climb to the top for a bird's-eye view of the remarkable scene.
With your guide by your side, understand the history behind the region, how the Nabataean people not only conceived such a grand place, but executed it with such precision. Be sure to capture the experience on camera as you contemplate the stirring sight.
