Overview

This 10 day Israel tour with Petra takes you from the hills of Nazareth to the desert canyons of Jordan, with free days built in so you never feel rushed. You tour the Galilee, the Mediterranean coast, Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Masada and the Dead Sea, then fly south to Eilat and spend two days in Petra. Nine hotel nights with breakfast, internal flights and entrance fees are covered.

Day 1 starts in Nazareth, day 2 is free in Tel Aviv, and day 3 runs up the coast to Caesarea, Haifa, Rosh Hanikra and Acre. Day 4 is another free day. Day 5 covers Jerusalem old and new, day 6 visits Jericho and Bethlehem, and day 7 brings Masada and the Dead Sea before an evening flight to Eilat. Days 8 and 9 are in Petra, with a guided tour and a free day, and day 10 flies you back to Ben Gurion Airport.

This Israel tour with Petra suits travelers who want the classic Bible and history sites plus Jordan's most famous wonder, without packing every day full. The two free days in Tel Aviv give you time for the beach, the markets or simply rest, and the second day in Petra lets you return to the trails at your own pace. It is a good choice for couples, friends and first-time visitors who prefer a balanced rhythm.

Touring days start with pickup at 07:15 from the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv, close to your hotel, and the Petra day starts from your hotel in Eilat. An airport transfer on arrival and departure is available on request. You choose 3-star, 4-star or 5-star hotels, priced per person in a double room for 2 or more travelers, or a single room if you travel solo, and the booking form shows the exact price for your hotel level and number of travelers. The tour departs daily, subject to availability, and this Israel tour with Petra is non-refundable because hotels and flights are pre-paid. Need a shorter Jordan add-on?

Frequently asked questions

What does the Israel tour with Petra price include?

The price includes transportation with a driver, 9 hotel nights on a bed and breakfast basis, the guided touring days, internal flights, entrance fees on the itinerary and lunch on the Petra tour day. An airport transfer on arrival and departure is available on request. The booking form shows the exact price for your hotel level and number of travelers.

Do I need a visa for Jordan, and are border fees included?

The Jordan visa and the departure tax at the border are not included in the price. Our team can arrange the visa for you at the border, and both are paid there in cash. Check the entry rules for your nationality before you travel. Our Israel Jordan border crossing guide explains each step.

What passport rules should I know about?

Bring a valid passport and keep it with you on touring days, as it is checked at the Jordan border and at checkpoints. Israeli citizens cannot enter Bethlehem or Jericho, which are in Area A, so day 6 is not possible for them. Contact us before booking if this applies to you. Many visa-exempt travelers also need an approved ETA-IL before flying to Israel, so check the official ETA-IL site.

Where is pickup each day?

Every touring day in Israel starts at 07:15 from the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv, close to your own hotel. On day 8 you are collected from your hotel in Eilat at 08:15. Day sequence can change depending on tour availability.

Which hotels are used?

You stay 9 nights with breakfast: six in Tel Aviv, then Eilat, Petra and Eilat again. You choose 3-star, 4-star or 5-star hotels when you book, and hotel names are listed on your voucher.

Can children join the tour?

Yes. Children sharing a double room with adults pay a lower child rate, shown on the booking form. Yad Vashem does not admit children under 10, and Petra involves a lot of walking, so plan with younger kids in mind.

How fit do I need to be?

A normal level of fitness is enough. Jerusalem has stone streets and steps, and Petra means several kilometers of walking on sand and rock, especially if you explore further on the free day. Good walking shoes are a must.

When is the best time to go?

Spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons for walking tours in Israel and Petra. In summer bring cool clothing and a head covering, and in winter pack very warm clothes, since Petra and the desert can be cold. Our Israel, Jordan and Egypt travel guide has more planning tips.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

This tour is non-refundable because hotel nights and flights are pre-paid as soon as you book. If your plans change, contact us and we will try to move you to other dates, subject to availability. Full details are in our booking terms.

Is a guide in another language available?

The tour is guided in English. Other languages may be available for an extra fee, so contact us before booking if you need one.
