Our 2 day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour will expose you to two of the most beautiful places on earth. The tour is available every day from Eilat and offers the ideal way to visit and experience both of these gems. Leaving Eilat, you’ll cross into Jordan and travel towards Aqaba where you’ll have time to enjoy the local bustling market. You’ll then head north along Jordan’s Desert Highway to Wadi Rum, the “Valley of the Moon”. Here you will check into your Bedouin Camp accommodation and relax in your new surroundings. In the afternoon, you’ll enjoy an exciting Jeep Safari tour in Wadi Rum, led by a local Bedouin and your guide. Spend the night in the Bedouin Campsite, eating an authentic Bedouin style dinner, including a famous Zarb (Bedouin barbeque). The next morning, enjoy breakfast before heading to the city of Petra, hidden in the desert for hundreds of years and rediscovered just 200 years ago. At Petra, you’ll enjoy a comprehensive tour by an experienced guide. You’ll also have free time to explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site on your own. Returning to Eilat after two days of touring, you’ll have an abundance of memories to take back with you.
