Petra Tours & Trips
Ever thought about how Petra's rose-red cliffs hold centuries of Nabataean carving work? The Treasury showing up through the Siq passage tends to leave people speechless. When night comes, candles light everything while Bedouin music echoes off the ancient walls. Hiking up to the Monastery brings you Wadi Araba views spreading way out below, giving you a sense of what traders saw crossing through Jordan's desert back then.

We had an excellent time in Jordan and Egypt. Our greeter at Queen Alia airport (Rami) was exceptionally efficient, diligent and friendly, as was our driver (Azmi) for the week. Our Egyptian hosts were just as good, especially Ahmed and Mohammed in Cairo, Medhat on the Nile cruise and Ahmed at head office.

Kerry • traveled in January, 2025
Overall, the trip was good. However, there were a couple issues beginning with the airport pickup. We expected to meet our pickup person after we passed thru customs into the terminal. No one was there & after about 45 minutes a tour company rep showed up & informed us he was looking for us at the visa/passport section. We saw 2 tour reps with name signs, but not this tour rep. This area was not crowded & there were few Westerners. We should have been easy to spot. The tour rep thought we were driving to Petra that evening & we had to inform him we had the 1st night in Amman. The Amman hotel (nights 1&3) was a good hotel, with helpful staff, but not near any restaurants. On day 2, our itinerary showed a lunch was to be provided in Petra. Our driver was not aware of this. We arrived in Petra around noon, were handed off to a guide & had lunch at our expense, 3 hours later - after the guide's tour. The driver contacted their office that evening & we were compensated with lunch on day 3. This is not really a guided tour, but a driver assigned to shephard us to & from Petra. The driver was not a guide & provided virtually no guide information.

Best tour companies for Petra tours
TourRadar customers have mixed feelings about the Petra & Wadi Rum tour - the actual destinations in Jordan are fantastic, but there's been some confusion with the logistics. The main issue stems from how the tour gets passed between different companies like Bamba Experience and Tourist Israel, which has led to some tricky situations with meeting points and payments. Several travelers found themselves unsure about where to meet their group or how to handle certain payments, all because the communication between these companies wasn't quite clicking. While nobody's complaining about the incredible rock-cut architecture of Petra or the desert landscapes of Wadi Rum, it's these practical details that have caused some headaches. The good news is that once people get past these initial hurdles, they really enjoy what Jordan has to offer. But it's pretty clear that TourRadar needs to work on smoothing out these handoffs between their partner companies. Having multiple operators involved shouldn't mean customers have to deal with extra confusion or uncertainty about the basics of their trip. It's a shame because these organizational hiccups are overshadowing what should be a straightforward journey through some of Jordan's most remarkable places. The feedback suggests that with better coordination between TourRadar, Bamba Experience and Tourist Israel, this tour could really shine.

Best time to visit Petra
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter changes how you experience Petra, with cooler weather that makes exploring much more comfortable. Our 4-day tours from Tel Aviv let you combine the Roman ruins at Jerash and Petra's rock-carved sites. The winter timing works really well - you can walk through the Siq without getting too hot, and the winter sunlight creates some fantastic photo conditions at the Treasury. Our customers love that we include hotel pickups, and they frequently mention how our guides know exactly when to visit each spot to dodge both the crowds and any winter rain showers.

- Spring 2026
Spring opens up our widest range of tours, right when walking conditions hit their sweet spot and wildflowers dot the landscape. The Dana to Petra Trek stands out - you'll spend 5-7 hours each day hiking through four different eco-zones, sleep under desert stars and enter Petra through the less-visited "back door" route. If you're after something gentler, our cultural tours from Jerusalem give you two full days at Petra, including early access when the morning light makes for excellent photos. A lot of our travelers add on Dead Sea visits in spring, telling us there's nothing better than floating in those mineral-rich waters after walking Petra's paths.

The three-to-four day Petra tours blend expert timing with comfortable logistics, starting with dawn walks through the Siq when the Treasury bathes in soft morning light. Many of our travelers opt for flexible schedules mixing guided visits and independent exploration time, which lets them find shade during the intense midday heat. Dead Sea excursions are a particular highlight, as visitors can float in mineral-rich waters to refresh after walking Petra's ancient pathways. The cleverly designed multi-day tours often combine Petra with nights at Wadi Rum desert camps, timing desert experiences for the cooler sunset hours. TourRadar customers consistently note how their guides master the perfect timing for each location, balancing comfort and photography conditions, and they appreciate the included hotel transfers that help avoid the strongest heat of the day.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall brings just the right temperatures for our longer exploration tours - perfect for the climb up to the Monastery or wandering through the Royal Tombs. Our 7-day Best of Jordan tours really come into their own this season, and travelers consistently tell us they love being able to take their time at each site. These tours mix expert guidance with personal exploration time; you'll get detailed background at key spots like the Treasury and main street, then have plenty of time to discover hidden corners yourself. Many regular customers specifically book fall departures to catch perfect weather for combining Petra with Wadi Rum desert camping and also Dead Sea visits.

How can I experience authentic Bedouin culture while I'm there?
Head to Wadi Musa the modern town right next to Petra where you'll find plenty of chances to connect with local Bedouin communities. For a really immersive experience stay overnight in Wadi Rum at a Bedouin camp where you can enjoy traditional underground-cooked Zarb dinners and soak up the culture and music. TourRadar travelers absolutely love it especially on the Petra Wadi Rum and Dead Sea 4-day tour where you get to spend a night in a traditional goat-hair tent tucked away in Wadi Rum.
What's the best way to get to Petra from Amman?
You've got options here - take a beautiful drive down the King's Highway and you can check out some amazing stops along the way like the Byzantine mosaics at St George's Church in Madaba Mount Nebo and Kerak Castle. If you're watching your budget public buses run between Amman and Petra too. The Jordan Nabataean 4-day tour sorts out all your airport transfers while the Highlights of Jordan from Israel tour picks you up from Tel Aviv or Jerusalem and handles the border crossing.
Is Petra by Night worth checking out?
You'll find something really magical at Petra by Night where they light up the Treasury with over 1500 candles under the desert stars. It runs Monday Wednesday and Thursday nights costs per person and you can add it to tours like the Jordan Nabataean 4-day experience. It's definitely one of those memorable moments you won't want to miss.
