What travellers say
Everything was absolutely perfect. From the booking, support and how the tripbwas arranged. The guide was a good teller and the busdriver drove safe.
It was a smooth and seamless experience. The staff at the airport counter were very helpful. Also I booked the card directly from the website and got a very good discount. Overall, very satisfied.
This was a superb activity- we saw so many dolphins in their natural habitat. Booking was so easy and everything was smooth. The ride was not rocky as well. Both kids and adults loved it.

Frequently asked questions
About Petra
Petra is a historical and archaeological city famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system. The official currency used in Jordan is the Jordanian Dinar. The city is known for its intricate carvings in the rose-red sandstone cliffs, including the iconic Treasury building. Visitors can explore ancient tombs, temples, and a Roman-style theater within the city.
When to visit
The best time to visit Petra is during the spring months of March to May and the autumn months of September to November when the weather is mild and ideal for exploring the ancient city. Summers can be extremely hot with temperatures reaching over 100°F, while winters can be cold and rainy.
Getting around
Visitors can explore Petra on foot or hire a local guide for a more in-depth experience. There are also horse and camel rides available for those who prefer not to walk long distances. Additionally, there are shuttle buses that run through the main sites of Petra for easy transportation.
Traveller tips
Wear comfortable walking shoes as exploring Petra involves a lot of walking on uneven terrain. It is advisable to carry a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the day. Be respectful of the local customs and dress modestly when visiting religious sites. Bargaining is common in local markets, so don't be afraid to negotiate prices. Lastly, start your day early to avoid the crowds and make the most of your visit.
