Things to do in
Petra, the crown jewel of Jordan, is a breathtaking ancient city carved into rose-red cliffs and one of the world’s most unforgettable destinations. With Expect Tour, you can uncover the top things to do in Petra, from iconic landmarks to immersive cultural activities that connect you with the heart of Jordan’s history.
One of the top attractions in Petra is the Treasury (Al-Khazneh), the stunning rock-cut temple that greets visitors at the end of the narrow Siq. This dramatic entrance sets the stage for an exploration of a city once home to the Nabateans over 2,000 years ago. As you walk through Petra’s vast archaeological park, you’ll encounter soaring tombs, temples, and a Roman-style amphitheater.
For active travelers, hiking to the Monastery (Ad-Deir) is one of the most rewarding activities in Petra. Climbing over 800 steps, you’ll reach an equally impressive structure with fewer crowds and spectacular panoramic views. Another must-do is the High Place of Sacrifice, offering dramatic viewpoints and ancient altars along the way.
Expect Tour also offers unique experiences like Petra by Night, where the site is lit by thousands of candles, creating a magical and peaceful atmosphere. Whether you're interested in history, photography, or adventure, there’s something for everyone.
