Petra (Jordan) from Sharm El-Sheikh

A trip to Petra from Sharm El-Sheikh is a unique journey that offers the opportunity to visit another country and explore the ancient city of Petra.

Petra, the capital of the Nabataean Kingdom, is known as the “Rose-Red City” because of the stunning color of its rock. This ancient city carved into the cliffs over 2,000 years ago is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Situated at an elevation of more than 900 meters above sea level, it is nestled within the narrow Siq Canyon.

During the tour, you will see numerous historical landmarks, such as Al-Khazneh (The Treasury), the Roman Theater, royal tombs, temples carved entirely from rock, and much more.
