If you decide to cross the border on your own, here’s a little bit of extra information. The price may look a little bit steep, but if you try to do all of the activities on your own, you’ll find out you’ve spent a similar amount.Īdvantages of doing things on your own – you have way more time to explore what you find interesting, disadvantages – a lot of hassle crossing the border, finding transportation, and accommodation. The icing on the cake is Spending the night in a bedouin camp at Wadi Rum and trying a typical Bedouin dinner (cooked in the desert sands). You’ll tour not just Petra, but also the ancient Roman city of Jerash. Since you’re gonna waste time (and money) on the border anyway, why not see everything Jordan has to offer? If you find yourself in Jerusalem, I recommend this 3-day Jordan Highlights tour. The tour also covers the Petra entrance fee (130 USD), so it’s an enormous value. Those guys would help you cross the border as fast as possible and would provide an English speaking guide to show you around Petra. If you’re in Eliat, I recommend this one. You’d be guided through the borders, and you’ll save tons of time. The best way to see Petra from Israel is via tour. It requires time and money, so I tend to avoid it. Having said that, crossing borders is always an annoyance. Jordan may be a Muslim country, but their relationship with Israel is excellent. Eliat and Tel Aviv are another popular starting points for exploring Petra.
