This one day Petra tour from Tel Aviv is a convenient way to visit Petra for those on a tight schedule. Available from Tel Aviv, the tour transfers in the southern city of Eilat with full assistance to cross the border.

Enter through the Siq, a long and narrow passageway upon the entrance filled with unique details including carvings and shrines. Hear the history of the “lost city” of the Nabateans, visiting ancient sites like the Treasury, Obelisk Tomb, Jabal Madbach (the sacrificial palace), Roman Theater and Mountaintop Tombs.
