    1. Petra Visitors Center

      Petra is also known as the rose-red city, a name it gets from the wonderful colour of the rock from which many of the city’s structures were carved. The Nabataeans buried their dead in intricate tombs that were cut out of the mountain sides and the city also had temples, a theater, and following the Roman annexation and later the Byzantine influence, a colonnaded street and churches. In addition to the magnificent remains of the Nabataean city, human settlement and land use for over 10,000 years can be traced in Petra, where great natural, cultural, archaeological and geological features merge. On December 6, 1985, Petra was designated a World Heritage Site,, also Petra was chosen by the Smithsonian Magazine as one of the 28 places you should visit them before you die.

    Well worth it

    I highly recommend Classic Wadi Rum tours, all of the positive things you read are true. I took a 2 day package, staying in Amman the night of my international arrival, then stated I Petra my 2nd night, then drove back late and took international flight home. I felt I saw a good portion while I was there and am happy, but could certainly have spent more time. I was met right at the airport and the greeter couldn’t have been more helpful to get me through customs. The driver taking me to the hotel didn’t speak English very well so at roughly 2:00am I email Andrea and said I couldn’t communicate with the driver and by 8:00am I had a new driver (Haithum) and wow was he great, he truly made the adventure worth while. He spoke very good English, knew his way around, had plenty of stories and made the drive to Petra very comfortable, even encouraged me to play my American tunes via blue on his car stereo. I had worked with Andrea before hand that if there was time I would very much like to see Mt. Nebo and potentially even the Dead Sea. She gave me a very reasonable price and said that I could add that on once I was underway depending on how much time we had. Haithum took care of the rest. Andrea and her operations manager checked in via phone on my first day while on the way to Petra which I thought was outstanding, they both wanted to just make sure that everything was going well. Once in Petra, my driver helped get me into my hotel, (Edom Hotel - another awesome idea, no need to book the 3 time more expensive Montevide as Edom is nice and only 1 minute further). Once in the hotel Haithum waited while I checked in then he walked me to the visitors center and helped me get my ticket. I arranged for a guide through Andrea (highly suggest this), but only for one day. The guide was awesome, told me everything I ever wanted to know. All and all, I could have had a better experience. If you are going to Jordan for a reasonable price and a custom tour call/email Andrea at Classic Wadi Rum Tours. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks, one satisfied customer!

    Response from the operator: Dear Luvtravel100, Thank you so much for your detailed and kind review! We’re delighted to hear that your two-day journey through Jordan with us was such a positive experience—from your smooth airport greeting to the personalized care from Haithum and the helpful attention from Andrea and the team. It’s wonderful that you enjoyed Petra and had the chance to add extra stops like Mt. Nebo and the Dead Sea. We always strive to create flexible, tailored tours that fit our guests’ wishes, and it’s great to know you felt well looked after every step of the way. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back on another Jordan adventure in the future! Warm regards, The Team of Jordan Horizons Tours

    Petra One Day Tour From Amman: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Petra One Day Tour From Amman cost?

    +

    Prices start at $300 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 One Day Tour From Amman take?

    +

    Plan for about 24 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 One Day Tour From Amman worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 One Day Tour From Amman?

    +

    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 One Day Tour From Amman suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Petra One Day Tour From Amman?

    +

    Around 1 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 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Petra One Day Tour From Amman 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.
