About This Tour
Petra is extraordinary. The Nabataean rose-red city carved into sandstone cliffs 2,300 years ago is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World — and from Sharm Elsheikh, you can be there and back in a single day.
A high-speed ferry takes you from Sharm to Aqaba, Jordan (90 minutes), where a private vehicle and licensed guide collect you for the 2-hour drive to Petra. You enter through the Siq — a narrow, winding canyon of towering ochre rock — and emerge, breath stolen, before Al-Khazneh: the Treasury.
