4x4 Safari Experience in Little Petra

Depart from your hotel or camp in Petra (Wadi Musa) during the afternoon, embarking on a northward journey in a comfortable air-conditioned 4x4. Begin by taking in breathtaking panoramic views of the main Petra site from a designated viewpoint before progressing to Al Wu'ayra, a dilapidated Crusader fort constructed by King Baldwin I in the 1100s.

As you traverse through a Bedouin village, proceed to Little Petra, an ancient valley adorned with rock-cut structures crafted by the Nabataeans. Venture off-road to explore a Neolithic village dating back to 7,200-6,500 BC, one of the world's oldest-known settlements. The journey continues to Beir Al-Aris, a remarkably preserved Nabataean cistern with rock chambers and staircases, historically used as a well and still serving local irrigation needs.

Pass through the narrow canyon of Siq Al-Barid, revealing various monuments in Little Petra, including intricately carved porticos and caves utilized by ancient traders as caravan stations and dining spots. Discover 1st-century ceiling frescoes in one of the caverns. Conclude your exploration at a vantage point offering awe-inspiring sunset views over Little Petra, where you can appreciate the scenery while enjoying campfire-brewed tea and snacks. Your excursion concludes at the original departure point.
