What you'll see and do

  1. We will pick you up from anywhere in Aqaba and drive you to Petra with a short stop on the way. It takes about two to two and a half hours to reach the Petra Visitor Center, where we begin our walking journey to the eighth wonder of the world. After walking 800 meters we reach the Siq (a rock channel 1,200 meters long, 3 to 12 meters wide, and 80 meters high). The Siq opens into Petra's most magnificent façade - the Treasury or Al-Khazneh. After the treasury, the path widens into a wide avenue of facades flanked on either side by the tombs that characterize the entire site. The Avenue of Facades leads us to the 5,000-seat theatre, carved into the middle of the main tomb area: On the other side of the stage on the western side of Mount Khakhbatha, we reach our final point – the Royal Tombs. After the Fofi tour, we return to Aqaba, which takes two to two and a half hours

Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aqaba.

How much does Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba cost?

+

Prices start at $180 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aqaba usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba take?

+

Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aqaba is not rushed.

Is Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Aqaba, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba?

+

Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aqaba can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aqaba and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Full-Day Trip in Petra from Aqaba start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aqaba within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Aqaba?

+

On Outty we rank every Aqaba experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Diving Experience in The Heart of Red Sea in Aqaba, Wadi Rum Full Day Jeep Tour + Overnight & Dinner in Bedouin Camp, Diving, Snorkeling & Leisure Cruises by Boat. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Aqaba?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Aqaba?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
