Tour Itinerary Petra and Wadi Rum One day Tour from Amman :
Pick up at Amman Hotel or residence and drive around 2.5 hrs to the red rose city of Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the world, and since 1985 a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Nabateans gained wealth by dominating the trade routes of ancient Arabia, but came under Roman rule in 106 AD.
