SHARM EL-SHEIKH Day Tour
Embark on an unforgettable day tour from Sharm El Sheikh to the mesmerizing ancient city of Petra. Prepare to be transported back in time as you explore this UNESCO World Heritage site, known as the Rose City, carved into the rock faces of Jordan’s rugged mountains.
Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh, where you’ll be greeted by our knowledgeable guide who will accompany you throughout your journey. Settle into a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy a scenic drive through the rugged landscapes of Sinai Peninsula, crossing the Taba border into Jordan.
Together with our knowledgeable local guide, we embarked on an exploration of Petra’s hidden wonders. We strolled through the Siq, a narrow gorge with towering walls adorned with intricate carvings. As we emerged into the Treasury, its colossal façade carved into the rock face, I felt a surge of awe and wonder.
As we approached Petra, the towering sandstone cliffs came into view, their striated hues resembling a celestial masterpiece. Disembarking the bus, I was awestruck by the sheer scale and grandeur of the ancient city.
Arriving at Petra, you’ll be greeted by the awe-inspiring sight of the Siq, a narrow canyon that leads you deep into the heart of the ancient city. As you walk along the winding pathway, marvel at the sheer beauty of the rock formations and feel the excitement building as you approach the famous Al-Khazneh, also known as the Treasury. This iconic structure, featured in the Indiana Jones movie, is a breathtaking sight to behold, adorned with intricate carvings and standing proud as a testament to the architectural brilliance of the ancient Nabateans.
Throughout our tour, we encountered friendly and welcoming Jordanians. Local Bedouins sold traditional handicrafts and offered camel rides, adding an authentic touch to our experience.
