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.
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 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

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!
Great service. Picked us up on time, comfortable ride. Went from Amman to Pertra, Wadi Rum then back to Amman Airport. Prompt and reliable service. Would book again and would recommend to a friend.
Hisham was wonderful. I felt relieved that he made sure we made the most of our limited time. Sami the guide thru Petra also great
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.
The service was really good and the views were one of kind. It was super safe and beautiful! Our guide Hisham was a wonderful guide!
We had such a great time with Jordanian Mappers. Our driver, Mohammad, was super fun. He kept us on track and got us safely everywhere we needed to be. I was super impressed that he was able to get us to Petra AND Wadi Rum for a jeep tour, tea, and sunset, even after our cruise ship came in late. We got back to Aqaba and even had some time to spare, so he picked up coffees for us and we cruised around town while he showed us some neat things in the city. We had so much fun. Our guide at Petra, Sami, was awesome too. He knew we were on a tight schedule and he did an awesome tour for us, helping us see in an hour and a half just about everything he shows in two and a half hours. We were all panting and sweating when we were done!! Definitely not for the faint at heart, though cramming everything was completely our choice. The buffet lunch was so good too. A great, wide taste of Jordanian food. I’d 100% recommend this company. Especially if you don’t want to do a tour bus excursion from the cruise ship. These guys make a personalized tour awesome. No waiting around for the lingerers in your tour bus group!
I spent 9 days at Wadi Rum Quiet Village Camp and had a lifetime experience! Amazing family and food
Hisham is an excellent tour guide who created a tailor made experience for us. He arranged our transfers from Jerusalem to the Jordanian border, which were seamless and he also organsied our visas. We loved our time in Jordan and really appreciated his knowledge of the country. He organised our hotel in Petra and Wadi Rum which met excellent standards. Hisham picked us up from our hotels everyday on time and responded to all of ours calls and needs immediately. He also showed excellent hospitality by offering us tea, coffee and refreshments. We were very happy with our experience in Jordan and would highly recommend him as a tour guide as he knows all the hidden gems the country has to offer.
Excellent food Comfortable and clean bed sheets with heater the tour is so much fun! 100% recommended!!!! :)))
Thank you very much! Everything was fantastic. Drivers were polite and cooperative, they didn't mind stopping us for pictures and taking them, the experiences you booked us were more than worth it! We loved the camel riding with the sunset in Wadi Rum it was a view I never have seen before. Thanks for the recommendations, the hotel in the Dead Sea was amazing; I would recommend it to other travelers too!
Our cruise ship has a stop in aqaba shore for one day so we this tour since we didn't want to go with 45 other travelers who we don't know. My partner red some bad reviews at other similar tour so it became a bet for us. Thankfully the operators that we had the tour booked by were professionals, They briefly described the itinerary by an email couple of days before the tour date- we didn't have any confusion. We requested a port pickup, that costed extra 20$ but was still worth it, they picked us at 7:00 and drove us 2Hrs till we reached Petra visitor center were the driver met us with our guide the guide had our tickets so there was no waisted time.. therefore our tour guide was a geologist and he had a published book about the science behind Petra!! He explained to us that he only guides VIP guests, scientists and diplomatic people! I guess we were so lucky that day and our bets were winners!! After our visit to Petra the driver was waiting for us at the gate to drive us to our restaurant which they had already booked us a table there. After lunch they drove us to Wadi Rum protected area as we felt like we are reaching Mars it was more exciting to take a 4x4 Jeep tour which Also was pre-booked for us 🐪. After our tour ended in we wanted to spend more time, but it was time to catch our ship 😄 After all. We really recommend the Jordanian Mappers as they didn't disappoint us and they truly gave us what we paid for. Special thanks to Mamoon, Yousef and Hisham for operating this tour!
Hisham , thanks for the great service you gave us and the wonderful time we had in Jordan . We enjoyed the history and the culture and we appreciate all the care and the help , we do recommend highly for being a friendly and professional person
We came by Eilat border to have a quick visit to Jordan since we were near. They picked us up from the border and then they took us to wadi rum, we had a nice ride with 4x4 car at the desert. They took us next to the city of Petra, where we had a tour Guide trip fully of enthusiasm and so we the people to help us. Then they drove us to cross back to Israel. Thanks to hisham for his nice drive, to the tour guide and Yousef to operate this trip for us.
We reserved this because we had only the day in Jordan, we arrived early in the morning by cruise to Aqaba port. We went to Petra the magical city, we can't explain it's beauty with words 😍😍 Then we went to have lunch which was traditional Jordanian meal, we wanted to go for desserts tasting but we didn't have much time. After Petra they drove us to wadi Rum protected area, we had a jeep tour with a Bedouin guide, he told us many interesting things about Bedouins life, it's more exciting to come back for!!!! Then pretty much our trip ended by the sunset and we had to go back to our ship. After all, many thanks for the driver and the guides.✨✨✨
We were lucky for choosing these people, starting with planning our tour through WhatsApp and confirmed by email, they were giving us information that we wouldn't knew if we went on our own. The driver was waiting for us right after we crossed the border, the car was new and it has free Wi-Fi all the way. The driver met us with the guide at the visitor center, he already has our entry tickets and so we begin walking till we reached the Treasury the guide was giving us mind-blowing historical information about the city of mysteries Petra along with funny jokes, he was more than kind to us! After the Guide left us, we went to see the treasury from over the mountain, it was breathtaking view. We went back to the gate and the driver was waiting for us, he took us then to Wadi Rum. We had a private tour organised by them for 2 hours. We were lucky that we let them plan this tour for us! They suggested to visit Petra before Wadi Rum to give us an incredible opportunity to watch the sunset from a mountain in the middle of the desert. We were so pleasant with this tour, it's our recommendation to you
Had an amazing time with Hisham. He has exceptional knowledge about the area and was very friendly. We saw Petra and Wadi Rum and had a lot of fun. Highly recommend having him as your guide.
It was beautiful, but in a day,,,is actually too little.. Use horses and the carts !!! You first walk through a gorge for almost an hour..
