Guests are briefed on walking distances and pacing to ensure a comfortable visit.

Exploring Petra

The Petra experience begins with the famous walk through the Siq, a narrow canyon that winds between towering rock walls. This dramatic entrance builds anticipation as the ancient city slowly reveals itself.

At the end of the Siq, guests arrive at the Treasury (Al-Khazneh), Petra’s most iconic monument. The guide explains:

The guided tour continues deeper into the site, introducing additional ruins and offering insight into daily life in ancient Petra. The pace is steady and considerate, allowing time for photos, questions, and rest.

After the guided portion, guests typically have limited free time to explore independently before departing for Wadi Rum.

Journey to Wadi Rum
