Once in Petra, begin the guided tour portion with an English speaking guide visiting highlights like the Petra Treasury, later have time to explore on your own, with time to hike to the Petra Monastery. With free time, find hidden gems, revisit other sites and take in the vast history housed in this site once inhabited by the Nabateans. After a day of sightseeing and exploration, travel south, returning to Israel and crossing the border in Eilat before traveling back to Tel Aviv.
