Petra
Petra is one of the most popular places to visit on the planet.
The giant red mountains and vast mausoleums of a departed race have nothing in common with modern civilization and ask nothing of it except to be appreciated at their true value - as one of the greatest wonders ever wrought by Nature and Man.
Although much has been written about Petra, nothing prepares you for this amazing place. It has to be seen to be believed. Petra, the world wonder, is without a doubt Jordan's most valuable treasure and greatest tourist attraction. It is a vast, unique city, carved into the sheer rock face by the Nabataeans, an industrious Arab people who settled here more than 2000 years ago, turning it into an important junction for the silk, spice, and other trade routes that linked China, India, and southern Arabia with Egypt, Syria, Greece, and Rome.

Experience a Turkish bath
Pamper yourself in true Middle Eastern style with a 2-hour Turkish Hammam experience. After a steam bath, enjoy an invigorating body scrub and gentle massage: a time-honored procedure dating back to the Ottoman Empire that was central to Middle Eastern culture. ​
The Jordanian National Dish Mansaf
One of the things Jordanians are proudest of is their traditional Jordanian cuisine. One local dish that is specific to the country and a real must-try is Mansaf – a rice-based dish served with chicken or lamb and accompanied by a yoghurt sauce called Jameed. Expect this dish as a guest at almost every special occasion in Jordan. ​
Dancing Traditional Folklore Dabke
One of the most popular Arab folk dance throughout the region. Could be at a wedding, party, gathering … Once two or more people start holding hands, you know it’s time to form a Dabke line. ​
Horse Riding from Petra to Wadi Rum
Embark on a lifetime experience from the ancient Nabatean city of Petra to the depths of the majestic Wadi Rum desert on pure locally-bred Arabian horses! Reenact the Indiana Jones movie in front of Petra’s Treasury, follow in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia throughout the magnificent Wadi Rum, and ride to the discovery of the thousand years old scriptures discreetly carved on the towering mountains. One of the highlights of this experience being to get the unique opportunity to ride across the deserted city of Petra at dawn, before the site opens its doors to the public!
​
Wedding ceremony
Experience the magical Nabatean dream wedding in Petra during Petra by night, a private cultural event in the Jordanian way. A wedding day is a one-life-time and it should be magical! So how about having an access to this site for a wedding of beloved couple? And how about having this experience in a candle-lit place though? Just in the front of the Nabatean Khazneh (Treasury), your special day will be well-decorated with much of passion and love.
Magical Gala Dinner
With plush rugs and tapestries dressing the walls and ground beneath your feet, candles illuminating the cave interiors and music adding a dramatic mood, you will feel like you have gone back in time. This is the ideal setting for a whole host of magical evening programs, such as cocktails served inside the caves, a light and sound show to entertain, a Bedouin goat tent, complete with traditional musicians, or the surprise of a seated gourmet dinner awaiting you on the other side of the Siq, black tie waiters and all! ​
Meal with local family in Petra
What better way to have a true local experience than eating in Petra at a local home, sitting down and enjoying Jordanian food with the family. Receiving guests bring great honor in the Jordanian culture and you will experience the genuine warmth and welcome that your host bestows on you. ​
Meeting Bread Making Bedouin Lady
Indulge your senses by tasting, smelling and watching the Bedouin bread making lady, bakes the most famous bread in Jordan. The whole process of making Shrak, which is the traditional flat bread, from mixing the dough to working it into a thin layer & throwing it in the traditional oven that looks like an inverted circular pan is enough to make your jaw drops and your tongue sizzles.
Henna and Kohl Drawings Experience
Arabic beauty secrets!
Henna has been used and known since ancient times, and it has a special rolein many cultures. Henna is widely usedin cosmetics,thanks to its ability to dye hair and skin with a long-lasting pigment.
Kohl is considered one of the oldest types of cosmetics, and it was usedby anumber ofancient culturesto emphasize the beauty of the eyes of both men and women.
Dinner at the Cave Bar
One of the most original bars in the world, Cave Bar is set in a cave tomb carved by the Nabataeans in the 1st century BC. The tomb is one of a few located just outside the Petra site, in what is now Wadi Musa, the town that developed at the entrance of Petra.
Petra Kitchen: Cook like a Jordanian
Just a short walk away from the Visitors’ center, gather in the relaxed and informal atmosphere of The Petra Kitchen to prepare an evening typical Jordanian meal under the supervision of a local chef. Each evening meal includes soup, cold and hot mezza and salads, and a main course—all typical Jordanian dishes. You will get an inside glimpse of the secrets behind the famous regional cuisine of the Levant.  THE PETRA KITCHEN a truly Jordanian experience—right down to the furnishings, all crafted in Jordan, the tableware, all produced by the Iraq al Amir Women’s Co-operative, and the aprons and table linens, all hand-embroidered by the Jordan River Foundation. Â
Petra by Night Experience (Candlelit Petra)
To visit Petra during daylight is awe-inspiring! However, to experience it at night by the light of 1,800 candles is an out-of-this-world experience. Walking through the Siq with candles placed in brown paper bags, lighting your path all the way to the treasury, with Bedouin music playing in the background, creates a mystique feeling that takes over! This 2 km walk is an experience you will never forget!
Just Imagine and leave the rest for us to handle.
