Experience Jordan’s two most iconic destinations on this Petra and Wadi Rum 2 day tour from Eilat. Cross the border from Eilat into the Hashemite Kingdom and spend two full days exploring a moon-like desert landscape and a 2,300-year-old city carved into red cliffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op dag 1 van de 2-daagse rondreis Petra en Wadi Rum vanuit Eilat rijd je via Akaba, waar je vrije tijd hebt en optionele strandactiviteiten kunt doen, naar het indrukwekkende Wadi Rum Protected Area<\/a>, een UNESCO-werelderfgoedlocatie waar meerdere Star Wars-films zijn opgenomen. Stap in een jeep voor een spannende woestijnsafari langs torenhoge zandsteenformaties, natuurlijke bogen en eeuwenoude Nabateese inscripties. Bij zonsondergang kom je aan bij een Bedoe\u00efenen-glampingkamp, waar een authentiek Jordaans diner (inclusief traditionele Zarb-barbecue) wordt geserveerd onder de sterrenhemel van de woestijn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Op dag 2 van de 2-daagse rondreis Petra en Wadi Rum vanuit Eilat brengt het vervoer je naar het Archeologisch Park Petra<\/a>, een van de Zeven Nieuwe Wereldwonderen<\/a>. Je Engelstalige gids leidt je door de Siq naar de iconische Schatkamer, de Koninklijke Graven, het Romeinse theater en de Colonnadestraat. Na de rondleiding heb je vrije tijd om dieper te verkennen of naar het Klooster te wandelen voordat je terugkeert naar Eilat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De 2-daagse rondreis Petra en Wadi Rum vanuit Eilat omvat een overnachting in een Bedoe\u00efenenkamp met diner en ontbijt, een jeepsafari, een rondleiding Dagtrip Petra<\/a>, de toegangskosten voor Petra en al het vervoer. Anders dan de 2-daagse rondreis naar Petra<\/a> waarbij je overnacht in een hotel bij Petra, geeft deze rondreis je de onvergetelijke ervaring om in de woestijn te slapen en wakker te worden met de zonsopgang boven Wadi Rum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n De 2-daagse rondreis Petra en Wadi Rum vanuit Eilat vertrekt dagelijks, met gegarandeerde vertrekken. Het is de meest complete manier om Jordani\u00eb te ontdekken vanuit Eilat in maar twee dagen.<\/p>\n Your Petra<\/a> and Wadi Rum<\/a> 2 day tour from Eilat begins with pickup from your hotel or a central meeting point.
