Day 1
Cairo Petra: After breakfast we transfer to the port of Nuweiba and catch the ferry to Aqaba. From Aqaba it is approximately 2.5 hours to Petra where we stay overnight ready for the visit the next morning.

Day 2
Petra Wadi Rum: We have most of the day to enjoy the awesome Rose city carved out of the mountain. Petra's importance grew due to the caravan trade, but with the development of sea trade its importance dwindled and by 14th century it was effectively lost to the west, only being rediscovered in 1812.

Our local guide will make the city come to life as we explore Petra. Later in the afternoon we head off to Wadi Rum, an amazing area made. Famous as the base for the Arab revolt during WWI and the filming of Lawrence of Arabia. This maze of rocks capes rise from the desert floor to a height of up to 1750 meters. We then travel through stunning desert landscape en route to stay in a desert Camp and have a traditional dinner (B, D)

Day 3
Cairo: After breakfast we transfer to Aqaba Port and catch the ferry back to Newaba. Here we meet our transfer back to Cairo. The trip finishes on arrival in Cairo (B).
