Leaving Eilat, you’ll cross into the Hashemite Kingdom, traveling towards Aqaba. Once there, you can explore the markets, enjoy a coffee and lunch-break, and relax at your own pace before heading towards Wadi Rum. Once in Wadi Rum, you will check into the Bedouin glamping style acommodation and enjoy optional activities in the area such as hiking or camel rides, or simply take in the surroundings. Optional activities can be arranged on the spot, locally. In the afternoon, head out on a Jeep Safari tour in the Wadi Rum desert. This is one of the most breathtaking landscapes on earth where the magic of the desert comes to life. The next morning, after breakfast, we’ll transfer to the lost city of Petra and enjoy a guided tour of the UNESCO World Heritage site and see the main highlights including al Siq, the Petra Treasury, the Obelisk Tomb, and more.
