The Colonnaded Street
This street was built by the Nabateans and later reconstructed by the Romans. The columns are a bit worse for wear, but the architectural intentions of the colonnaded street are clearly evident. All Roman cities had a central Forum which was a public area in which business, civic affairs, and religious ceremonies were conducted.

Ad-Deir Trail
Hdden high in the hills, the Monastery is one of the legendary monuments of Petra. Similar in design to the Treasury but far bigger (50m wide and 45m high), it was built in the 3rd century BCE as a Nabataean tomb. It derives its name from the crosses carved on the inside walls, suggestive of its use as a church in Byzantine times. The ancient rock-cut path of more than 800 steps starts from the Basin Restaurant and follows the old processional route.

Jordan adventures
I arranged a private driver for the week and overall it was a very good experience. Travelling between Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea was easy and well organised, and my driver was consistently punctual and reliable. As a solo traveller I particularly valued feeling safe and well looked after. He made a genuine effort to be welcoming and to help me understand a little more about Jordanian life and culture along the way, which added to the trip. The car was comfortable and everything ran smoothly throughout the week. I would happily recommend this service to anyone looking for a secure and straightforward way to see Jordan with a friendly and attentive local driver.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you had a comfortable, safe, and well-organised trip with us. It was a pleasure to have you with us, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back to Jordan again!

Best experience in Jordan!
I visited Petra in August 2025 with my girlfriend and booked a tour with Jordan Day Tour and more and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable travel experiences of my life! If you're looking for a tour company i can definitly recommend this one. From the moment we were picked up, everything was perfectly organized. Our driver, Omran, was an absolute gem. Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and warm, he immediately made us feel at ease. He took the time to explain not only the day's itinerary but also gave us insights into Jordanian culture, history, and daily life. His passion and pride in his country really added depth to the experience. Petra itself is beyond words! walking through the Siq, the narrow gorge that leads to the ancient city, was like stepping into another world. And when the Treasury finally came into view… wow. It took my breath away. We explored the Royal Tombs, climbed up to the Monastery (Ad-Deir), and wandered through the vast, awe-inspiring landscape of carved rock and ancient ruins. The entire day was smooth, comfortable, and deeply enriching, thanks to Jordan Day Tour and more' professionalism and Omran’s personal touch. He even gave us great local tips and made sure we were well taken care of every step of the way. If you’re thinking of visiting Petra do yourself a favor and book with Jordan Day Tour and more It’s not just a tour, it’s a memory that will stay with you for years to come. Thank you Omran and the team for an unforgettable journey!

It was a pleasure meeting you both and sharing a little of Jordan’s history, culture, and everyday life along the way. I’m especially happy that you enjoyed Petra and had such a wonderful time exploring this incredible place. Thank you for trusting Jordan Day Tour and More and for your kind words about me.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aqaba.
How much does Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba cost?
+
Prices start at $350 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 Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Private Day Tour To 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 Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour To Petra From Aqaba?
+
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 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Tour To 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 4x4 Full-Day Desert Tour, 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.

+
