What you can expect

Begin your day with a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its Neolithic remains and Nabataean heritage. Explore this ancient settlement, once an important stop for merchants travelling along the historic trade routes, before setting off on the hike.

Follow Petra's famous back route through colourful sandstone mountains, remote valleys, and stunning desert scenery. Along the way, enjoy panoramic views and learn about the Nabataeans, the ingenious civilisation that transformed Petra into a thriving trading hub over 2,000 years ago.

Arrive at Al-Deir (The Monastery), Petra's largest monument and one of its most impressive landmarks. Arriving at the Monastery from the back trail offers a unique perspective rarely experienced by most visitors. From here, continue exploring the archaeological site, discovering Petra's remarkable monuments, temples, and ancient pathways.

Highlights include the magnificent Royal Tombs, carved into towering sandstone cliffs, and the iconic Treasury (Al-Khazneh), one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Your guide will bring Petra's rich history to life as you journey through the heart of this extraordinary ancient city.

After completing your visit, meet your vehicle and return to Amman, taking with you unforgettable memories of Jordan's most famous archaeological wonder and one of its most scenic hiking routes.
