Petra Tour (including flights) Tour from Jerusalem ITINERARY

Petra Jordan Tour from Tel AvivYour one day Petra Tour from Israel any city will take you on a visit to the unique and enchanted city of Petra. It might look like a long day, but the life-long memories you’ll be left with at the end of the Petra Tour will make it worth it!

Leaving from Tel Aviv, Ben Gurion Airport early morning, you’ll fly to Eilat Ramon Airport . Upon arrival to Ramon, you will be picked up from Eilat Ramon Airport and transferred to the Arava Israeli-Jordanian border.

After clearing immigration and customs, you will be met by one of our multi-lingual Jordanian representatives who will drive you from the Aqaba border station, through the majestic Jordanian desert landscapes, to your first stop on this unique 1 days tour – Petra.

Petra is an ancient city carved out of red sandstone cliffs in southern Jordan, and it’s considered one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. A one day tour of Petra will take you on a journey through history and culture, allowing you to explore this remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Once you arrive at Petra, you’ll start walking towards the entrance of the city. The entrance is called the Siq, and it’s a narrow canyon that leads into the city. As you walk through the Siq, you’ll be surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs that rise up to 80 meters high. The Siq is about 1.2 kilometers long, so it will take you around 20-30 minutes to walk through it. When you reach the end of the Siq, you’ll see the famous Treasury building, which is Petra’s most iconic landmark. The Treasury is carved out of solid rock and is decorated with intricate carvings and sculptures.

From the Treasury, you can continue exploring the city on foot. There are many other impressive buildings and structures to see, such as the Monastery, the Amphitheater, and the Royal Tombs. Your guide will provide you with information about each of these sites and their historical significance. You can also climb up to the High Place of Sacrifice, which offers stunning views of the city and the surrounding landscape. This climb can be challenging, so make sure you’re wearing comfortable shoes and are prepared for a steep ascent.

After exploring Petra for several hours, you will proceed to a one of the local Jordanian restaurants for an authentic Jordanian Bedouin style lunch. You can try local dishes such as mansaf (a lamb and rice dish) or maqluba (a vegetable and meat casserole).

At the end of your unforgettable day in Petra, you’ll head back to Israel. Your journey will continue to the border station between Jordan and Israel, where you’ll complete the necessary border procedures. Once finished, you’ll be transferred to Ramon Airport, where you’ll catch your flight back to Tel Aviv.

Israel tour
★★★★★
“ We had an excellent experience with Compass Travel Israel. Everything was seamless from airport pickup to hotel transfers and touring. Enrique was an incredible guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke multiple languages fluently. Benjamin was also wonderful to work with—professional and very helpful. We felt safe, well taken care of, and truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend.”

Wonderful day with Avi
★★★★★
“ Avi was absolutely wonderful!! We had such a great day with him visiting Masada, Ein Gedi, and the Dead Sea. He was kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable, and he made the whole experience feel easy, interesting, and fun. He adapted perfectly to our family and kept our two kids engaged, even in the heat. He always knew where to stop, where to find shade, and how to share the history in a way that was fascinating but never too heavy. His car was also very comfortable, which made the long drive to and from Tel Aviv so much easier. It was a long, hot day, but it went by so fast because we were having such a good time. We would absolutely book Avi again and are already looking forward to more adventures with him!”
- Kelly L

Amazing experience!
★★★★★
“ I had an amazing experience at the Dead Sea and Masada tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide, Enrique. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much fascinating history throughout the entire trip you could tell he genuinely loves what he does and knows the subject inside and out. Enrique was extremely kind, welcoming, and friendly from start to finish. He made everyone feel comfortable and taken care of, and his hospitality really stood out. The whole experience felt organized, fun, and personal because of him. If you’re thinking about doing a Dead Sea and Masada tour, I highly recommend it and if you get Enrique as your guide, you’re in great hands.”
