Day 9: Petra — Dead Sea

Breakfast at the hotel, and head to the site to visit Petra: Top choice archaeological site in Petra The spectacular sandstone city of Petra was built in the 3rd century BC by the Nabataeans, who carved palaces, temples, tombs, storerooms, and stables from the soft stone cliffs. Today it is a World Heritage Site that needs little introduction; suffice to say, no visit to Jordan is complete without exploring the remarkable Ancient City. The Ancient City is approached through the 1.2km-long, high-walled Siq – a crack in the rock, torn apart by tectonic forces. Just as you start to think there’s no end to the Siq, you catch breathtaking glimpses ahead of the most impressive of Petra’s sights, the Treasury, known locally as Al Khazneh. Carved out of iron-laden sandstone to serve as a tomb, the Treasury gets its name from the misguided local belief that an Egyptian pharaoh hid his treasure in the top urn. The Greek-style pillars, alcoves, and plinths are truly masterpieces of masonry work. Head to Dead Sea: At 431m below sea level – the lowest point on earth – the Dead Sea is a body of intense blue water, polished smooth like oiled skin on a windless day in winter and ruffled into whitecaps by the summer winds.

  1. Shoba R.

    Always a great experience. Well planned and organized. I’ve done Egypt and the tour of Jordan. Both were well executed. Loved our tour guides and driver! It’s effortless to plan a trip with enchanting and they are very good about following up with you on every aspect of your trip. I recommend One nation travel. This was our best vacation with none of the stress of booking all the details ourselves.

  2. Aurelia C.

    My husband and I booked the 9 nights /10 days Egypt and Jordan tour, and what a delight it was. My first contact was with Selahattin and from my first questions about the tour, to the completion of the trip, he was always full of help and advice should we need it, and he also made the whole booking process simple and straightforward – thank you Selahattin. The hotels we stayed in were beautiful and the staff treated us kindly. I highly recommend Onenationtravel.com and cannot wait to return to these incredible two countries!
