Overview

This 2 day Petra tour from Tel Aviv with flights is a private trip that pairs a guided visit to Petra with a night in the desert of Wadi Rum.

2 Day Petra Tour from Tel Aviv with Flights: Route and Highlights

You fly from Ben Gurion Airport at 06:30, and at about 08:15 our driver meets you at Ramon Airport for the ride to the Arava border. After the crossing an air-conditioned vehicle takes you to Petra, where your guide leads about three hours of walking past the Treasury, the tombs and the Roman theater, with the story of the Nabataeans, their art and their gods. After lunch at a local restaurant you drive to Wadi Rum for the night. Day 2 starts with breakfast at the Bedouin camp and a 4x4 drive of about two hours, then you return to the border and Ramon Airport for the flight back to Tel Aviv.

Being private, the tour follows your pace with your own guide, which suits couples, families and friends who prefer quality time to a full bus. Two days are enough to see the highlights of Petra and enjoy the calm of the desert, and sleeping in Wadi Rum adds the experience most day trips miss. That makes this 2 day Petra tour from Tel Aviv with flights a good fit when your time in Israel is limited.

The tour starts at Ben Gurion Airport, and your flight and check-in details are confirmed after booking. The booking form lists 3-star, 4-star and 5-star options, priced per person in a shared double room for 2 or more travelers with a lower child rate, or as a single room if you travel solo, and it shows the exact price for your option and number of travelers. The tour departs on set days, so check the calendar for open dates. Because the flights and accommodation are pre-paid, this 2 day Petra tour from Tel Aviv with flights is non-refundable.
