The experience
Travel beyond Sinai for a long day at Petra, combining Dahab road transfers, a sea crossing to Aqaba and the journey inland to the rock-cut city.
The retained program describes a Taba–Aqaba crossing. Other Dahab products use Nuweiba, so the actual Egyptian port, boat, operating date and return must be confirmed before booking rather than treated as interchangeable. After arrival in Jordan, continue to Petra’s visitor centre and walk the Siq towards the Treasury with the guiding arranged in your package.
The deeper circuit can continue along the Street of Facades and towards the tombs and main city area only as the available time and walking pace allow. A full Monastery hike or Wadi Rum visit is not assumed within this day trip. Lunch is included in the proposed package before the long return via Aqaba. Allow eighteen hours or more, with passport, entry and Egypt re-entry arrangements checked for your own circumstances before acceptance. The page is not evidence of a daily ferry or guaranteed border processing time.
