Description:

Few sights rival this ancient city carved from red sandstone, and Petra's dramatic setting is enhanced by night. Watch as candlelight illuminates the city during your overnight stay, explore the area's archaeological remains, and learn its diverse history and importance to several civilizations.

Enter Petra by night for the most dramatic effect, with thousands of candles lining the Siq—a narrow path flanked by cliffs that tower more than 250 feet (80 m) above you. The red hue of the rock glows eerily as you arrive at the ruin of Al Khazneh (the Treasury), a mighty temple hewn into the rock.

Inside, hear the account of Petra and the Nabataean people before returning back down the Siq and locating your hotel for the night.

The next morning brings you the “Rose City” by day. Explore the remains of a once-great kingdom, the striking monastery, Roman-style amphitheater, and numerous tombs, altars, and colonnaded streets. Marvel at the archaeological splendor heightened by a setting of outstanding natural beauty.

With sights worthy of Petra's status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, wonder at the dramatic landscape by night and day on this 2-day tour.
