An unforgettable one-day visit to Petra in Jordan thank to well organised tour by professional and friendly staff from both sides, in Israel and in Jordan. The professional drivers made the long way to Petra smooth and enjoyable, and the tour operators explained each step at the border crossing that took only minutes. A knowledgable and sympathetic guide in Petra added more colours to the bright surroundings in Petra with the story about a long abandoned, but still so vivid ancient city.
A lunch in the local restaurant after a long day full of impressions was just right before travelling back.
! Well-organised travellers would feel that there is also enough time for souvenirs and photos along the way.
! At the border crossing - as some passports require entry visa to Jordan and some not, please check again with the tour operators if your country is registered correctly in their documents to avoid paying unnecessary fees for visa.
! Please follow advice what to take with you for the tour to make your journey comfortable.
! The walk from entrance to the main attraction in Petra takes ca. 45 min.
! For those who prefer the faster way - there are golf cars (at extra cost) to get you to the main attractions in Petra.
! The entry ticket to Petra included a short horse ride.
! Not all attractions can be visited in one day, as the area is large. Some travellers might prefer to stay two or three days in Petra, but I have enjoyed every minute of my one-day journey to such unforgettable place.
