Three Hour Petra Free Tour
♡ Save
Explore Petra with a local Bedouin guide! Walk the breathtaking Siq to the Treasury, take in scenic viewpoints, follow the Roman Street, and finish this unforgettable tour at the magnificent Monastery.
Petra is much more than the Treasury. Join me for an authentic journey through the ancient city with a local Bedouin guide who was born and raised in Petra. Walk through the breathtaking Siq, stand before the iconic Treasury, discover hidden viewpoints, and hear stories of the Nabataeans, Bedouin traditions, and daily life that you won’t find in guidebooks. I’ll share local history, culture, and the legends passed down through generations while showing you the beauty of the Rose City from a unique perspective. Whether it’s your first visit or you’re returning to explore more, this experience is designed to help you connect with Petra beyond the typical tourist route.
If you’d like to continue your adventure, I also offer extended hikes, hidden trails, traditional Bedouin fire-cooked dinners, authentic cave camping under the stars, mule rides, and custom itineraries.
At the end of the experience, simply tip from the heart.
