Petra Tours

Petra in a Day from Sharm El-Sheikh

Petra — the rose-red city carved straight into Jordanian sandstone more than two thousand years ago — is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, and it is reachable from Sharm El-Sheikh in a single (long) day. The route runs north to Taba, across the Gulf of Aqaba by fast ferry, then by road to the Siq and the Treasury.

This is an early start and a late return, so we keep the group small and the pace comfortable. Your Egyptian guide handles the crossing; a local Jordanian guide takes over at Petra. Bring your passport — it must be valid for at least six months.
