Jordan: Petra

Petra the world wonder, is without doubt Jordan’s most valuable treasure and greatest tourist attraction. On our Explore tour you can visit this vast, unique city, carved into the sheer rock face by the Nabataeans, an industrious Arab people who settled here more than 2000 years ago, turning it into an important junction for the silk, spice and other trade routes that linked China, India and southern Arabia with Egypt, Syria, Greece and Rome.
