Accommodation
Excursion Itinerary: Petra & the dead sea in private

You will leave the hotel early in the morning to drive south to the pink-red Nabatean city of Petra, one of the seven wonders of the world. There you will make a classic visit. As you travel, you'll gaze at desert landscapes and hear tales of Jordanian history.

Petra, found carved out of a sandstone valley by the Nabatean people about 2,000 years ago, this ancient city of rose-red rock located 245 kilometers from Amman, was the crossroads of ancient trade routes, to dominate ancient Arabia.

You will pass through Little Petra, a small rocky valley with carvings, which archaeologists believe acted as the Nabataean caravan before heading to the main city and as an accommodation stop for merchants who traveled through the city. You will continue to the main site of Petra to learn more about its magnificent history. You will leave the vehicle and enjoy a 2-hour tour with a local guide through this wonder listed as a UNESCO Heritage Site. You will walk or ride a horse through the "Siq", a narrow path of 1.2 kilometers; rock fissure that was once the main entrance to the city. You will marvel at your first glimpse of the hauntingly beautiful "El-Khazneh" Treasury as the canyon suddenly opens up.

You will admire this rose-red masterpiece, originally built to house priceless treasures and capture it on camera. Then, you will walk through the widening of the canyon to witness other buildings such as the 3,000 seat Theatre, the Royal Tombs and the Byzantine Church. As you explore, your guide will describe how the Nabateans carved the buildings and how they mastered the harsh conditions of the desert to make their lives here.

After approximately two hours of exploring, you will enjoy free time and have lunch on your own. If time permits, you will be able to climb up to the Monastery on your own or to the High Place of Sacrifice: a cliff-top altar once used for animal sacrifices and other ceremonies. You will return to the entrance of Petra and meet your private vehicle and driver.

Your tour continues by discovering the fantastic Dead Sea. You will travel through desert landscapes to the eastern shores of Sowayma. You will visit a private beach at the water's edge and enjoy free time to swim in the waters of the Dead Sea. You will relax on the beach and enjoy the beautiful surroundings that cannot be found anywhere else.

Optionally you can include the entrance of a hotel with a wider range of facilities, including several outdoor swimming pools, and an elegant spa that offers Dead Sea mud treatments with body massages, at your expense.

After these incredible visits you will return to the hotel in Amman.

Greca Tip: When visiting one of the 7 wonders of the world, you cannot forget to take your camera, to save unforgettable portraits.
