See amazing Petra: The Nabataean civilization carved the city out of red-colored rock cliffs about 2,300 years ago, and its shrines and temples remained untouched: you'll pass by the mysterious Djin blocks, used to house desert spirits; you'll see the beautiful Obelisk Tomb and walk down the colorful Siq gorge all the way to the marvelous Petra Treasury - a massive temple with intricate decorations. Then feel like Indiana Johns in the Petra Royal Tombs, and take awesome pictures in the ancient Nabatean Theater.

After 3-4 hours in Petra, you'll ride back to Eilat, taking in more beautiful wilderness views - and fly to Tel Aviv.
