Start your day with a pick-up from your Dead Sea hotel, where your driver will be waiting for you with a sign in your name. Enjoy a scenic drive to Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, which was established around the 6th century B.C. by the Nabataean Arabs, a nomadic tribe that founded a thriving commercial empire. Upon arrival, meet your local guide and walk through the stunning 1.2 km long Siq, a narrow canyon adorned with colorful sandstone. At the end of the Siq, you will be greeted by the breathtaking Treasury, one of Petra's most iconic monuments. Continue your exploration along the Street of Facades, passing the Royal Tombs and Pharaoh's Castle. After your guided tour, you’ll have free time to wander and discover Petra at your own pace, with the option to climb the 800 steps to the impressive Monastery El Deir.

However, it is important to note that tips should not substitute an employer's responsibility to provide fair compensation.
