Questions about this trip

Is four days enough for Petra and Wadi Rum?

Yes. Two days in Petra covers the main trail, the Monastery and the High Place of Sacrifice, then a night in a Wadi Rum camp and a morning jeep tour. The Jordan Pass covers Petra entry and your visa if you stay three nights or more.

Do I need to book Petra tickets in advance?

Buy tickets at the visitor center or use the Jordan Pass for multi-day entry. Advance booking is not required but reduces wait times at peak hours.

How do I get from Petra to Wadi Rum?

It's about 120 km, so allow 1.5 to 2 hours by taxi or arranged transfer. Most Wadi Rum camps will book the transfer for you.

What does a jeep tour in Wadi Rum cost?

Prices depend on the length of the tour and how many people share the jeep. Book through your camp, which usually offers half-day and full-day routes; agree the price and stops before you set off.
