Overview

This Petra and Wadi Rum tour from Tel Aviv swaps the long drive south for a short domestic flight, so you get three relaxed days in southern Jordan. You have a guided visit to Petra on arrival day, a whole free day to explore the rock-cut city on your own, and a two-hour 4x4 jeep tour through the red desert of Wadi Rum before you fly home.

Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Tel Aviv: Route and Highlights

You fly early in the morning from Ben Gurion Airport to Ramon Airport near Eilat, where a driver meets you, takes you to the Arava border and helps with the crossing. A Jordanian driver then brings you to Petra with a few short stops on the way, and at around 11:30 your guide leads you through the Siq to the Treasury and beyond. After lunch at a local restaurant you check in to your hotel. Day 2 is yours, perhaps for the hike up to the Monastery. On day 3 you drive to Wadi Rum for the jeep tour, then return to the border and Ramon Airport for your flight back to Tel Aviv.

Petra is too big for one rushed afternoon, and this itinerary gives you two nights to see it properly. It suits independent travelers who like a guided introduction followed by time alone, hikers who want to reach the high viewpoints, and anyone with limited days in Israel who still wants both Petra and Wadi Rum. Flying both ways makes this Petra and Wadi Rum tour from Tel Aviv far less tiring than a road trip.

Your trip starts at Ben Gurion Airport early in the morning, and the check-in time is confirmed after booking. Prices are per person in a double room for 2 or more travelers, with a lower child rate, or for a single room if you travel solo. You can upgrade both hotel nights to 4-star or 5-star on the booking form, which 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 hotel nights are pre-paid, this Petra and Wadi Rum tour from Tel Aviv is non-refundable.
