The journey begins at night, includes a border crossing, and takes you to the ancient city carved into the rocks. You’ll see Al-Khazneh (the Treasury), the amphitheater, the Royal Tombs, and other monuments of the Nabataean Kingdom.

👉 The route passes through the Wadi Musa archaeological area, includes scenic viewpoints, and ends with the return to Sharm El Sheikh. Lunch and the main excursion services are included, and the tour operates regularly.

👉 Citizens of Kazakhstan (often admitted), Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Georgia, and Armenia may be refused entry at the Jordanian border. Please contact your country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs or a Jordanian consulate for detailed information, as we do not have authoritative guidance.
