Private 2 hour tour: The Monastery in Petra via the Bedouin route
Duration
3 hours
Overview
-
A 2 hour experience led by a local Bedouin guide. This tour begins from the Petra visitors centre and includes a 20 minute car drive to the back entrance into Petra located in the vicinity of Al Bayda. From there we will begin a 1 hour hike to the Monastery. With wild landscapes and panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, you will feel as if you have Petra all to yourself.
Once we reach the Monastery there are many Nabatean caves, tombs, and carvings to explore surrounding the monument. If you climb off the ground level, the views are breath-taking and gives an opportunity to take beautiful photos in the iconic cave door opposite the Monastery. The tour will end at the Monastery.
Afterwards you can sit back and enjoy the views at the cave/café opposite the Monastery or continue walking by yourself into the main city of Petra.
Beginners to advanced walkers welcome. Entry to Petra ticket is not included. You must buy this separately.
