Siq
The 1.2km Siq, or canyon, with its narrow, vertical walls, is undeniably one of the highlights of Petra. The walk through this magical corridor, as it snakes its way towards the hidden city, is one full of anticipation for the wonders ahead – a point not wasted on the Nabataeans, who made the passage into a sacred way, punctuated with sites of spiritual significance.

The Treasury
Known locally as Al Khazneh, this tomb is where most visitors fall in love with Petra. The Hellenistic facade is an astonishing piece of craftsmanship. Although carved out of iron-laden sandstone to serve as a tomb for the Nabataean King Aretas III (c 100 BCE–CE 200), the Treasury derives its name from the story that an Egyptian pharaoh hid his treasure here (in the facade urn) while pursuing the Israelites.

Aqaba
Aqaba carries the relaxed small-town atmosphere of a popular local getaway. The town offers a sociable stopover en route to the diving and snorkelling clubs to the south and the big destinations of Wadi Rum and Petra. It’s also an obvious place to break a journey to or from Israel and the Palestinian Territories or Egyp

Engaging and down to earth Tour guide
Had a great pick up and drop off experience with Sheikh Hisham. Funny, warm and extremely helpful ! Knowledgeable and experienced
via Tripadvisor
The perfect day tour
This was an amazing tour! We were picked up at our hotel at the time specified and our driver Ahmed was absolutely wonderful. He was very nice and patient throughout the entire drive. When we got to Petra we were given a guided tour by Sami who is the best! He is so knowledgeable and funny, we learned so much while having a great time! We took longer than we were supposed to while completing the steps to the Monestary, and Ahmed was kind enough to get us boxed lunches to make sure we don’t miss our next leg of the tour. We then went to Wadi Rum, where we were driven in the sand by Yusuf who was a great driver. We felt safe, while still having an adventurous time in the desert. Make sure to watch the sunset here! Overall this was the perfect day tour and it ended up lasting 18 hours from pick up to drop off, jam packed with everything we wanted to do in both of these sites!
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing such a detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that your tour was everything you hoped for, and that Ahmed, Sami, and Yusuf made the experience even more enjoyable. It’s wonderful that you got to enjoy the beauty of Petra and Wadi Rum, and we’re glad we could accommodate your timing with the boxed lunches. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re so happy your day was filled with unforgettable moments. We hope to welcome you again for more adventures in the future!

A trip to remember
I highly recommend the Jordainian mappers tour. Our guide Hisham was very professional and knowledgeable about the area and being a local he took on on beautiful scenic routes. Our tour guide in Petra Sami, share his expertise historian knowledge which was priceless. We were two women traveling on this tour and we felt so comfortable and safe even tracking off into the desert on our ride in wadi rum. It was such a fun filled day filled with history, culture and lifetime experience. The Jordanian mappers can give you 1 day, 2 days or more of wonder memories and life experiences.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your recommendation! We’re glad to hear you had such a memorable experience with Hisham and Sami. It’s great that you felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour, especially with everything Jordan has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you again for more adventures!

Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amman.
How much does Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers cost?
+
Prices start at $335 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amman usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Amman is not rushed.
Is Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Amman, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers?
+
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 Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers?
+
Around 6 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 Amman 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 Amman and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Petra and Wadi Rum in One Day | The Jordanian Mappers 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 Amman 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 Amman?
+
On Outty we rank every Amman experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Amman: Petra and Wadi rum Private/Group Full day Tour, From Amman :Private or Group Full day tour to Petra, Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea 4 Days 3 nights. 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 Amman?
+
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 Amman?
+
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.
