Bedouin experience in Petra Petra was the capital of the ancient Nabatean kingdom, whose monarchs made it prosper due to its location on the caravan route. Its name derives from the Greek πέτρα (stone), because it is a city literally excavated and sculpted in stone. Numerous buildings, whose facades are directly sculpted in the rock, form a unique monumental ensemble in the world. My name is Abu Noura, and I want to introduce you to my people, the Bedouins, who inhabited the city of Petra until in 1984, when we moved to protect the archaeological heritage. Many of us keep the caves where our parents and grandparents were born and grew up. They are caves with carved facades, with classic lintels, similar to those that can be seen along the tourist itineraries. A camel ride around Petra, climb the mountains, a bedouin dinner and a tea, sleep in one of our caves and a breakfast at dawn and see how illuminates Petra Mountains in pink, is a unique experience can I offer to you.

Hike to Feinan following the Wadi’s riverbed (involves crossing water), and pass through the spectacular siq entrance to Wadi Ghuweir. See breathtaking scenery and many different plants and trees along the way, including palm trees and Oleander flowers. This is one of the most impressive trails in Jordan, thanks to the water flowing in the Wadi, the steep sided rock canyons, and the varied flora and different microclimates you will experience on the way. The path starts near a small village, where the Wadi begins and quickly becomes a narrow canyon with a small stream running through it. The rocks you will see on the way are beautifully varied in shades of red, yellow and orange, and the pink oleander flowers and abundant green foliage make it a really dreamlike landscape. Our hiking guides are all local to the area, and have knowledge of the animals and plants you will see in the Dana Nature Reserve.

This trail is in Little Petra , it is approx. 04 hrs . You can start from Petra where we will drive you to Little Petra or if you are staying in Little Petra . Little Petra is a ten-minutes drive north of Petra is Siq Al-Barid, which is also referred to as 'Little Petra' due to similarities with the main site.

Little Petra , Petra’s northern suburb of Siq al-Barid, 9km north of Wadi Musa town, is often touted to tourists as “Little Petra” – which, with its short, high gorge and familiar carved facades, isn’t far wrong. However, although it sees its share of tour buses, the place retains an atmosphere and a stillness that have largely disappeared from the central areas of Petra. Adding in its location in gorgeous countryside and its proximity to Beidha (a rather less inspiring Neolithic village), it’s well worth half a day of your time. The route to Little Petra follows the road north from the Mövenpick hotel. A short way along, where the road curves left, you can park on the shoulder for one of Petra’s best views, a breathtaking sweep over the central valley of the ancient city, with many of the monuments in view, dwarfed by the mountains.
