Excellently organised and a beautiful experience. The optional golf-cart ride back was a very important service.
Communication from the tour company was non existent. We had to reach out to find out information on pickup time (which if we had not called we would have missed the pickup by three hours). No info on pcr testing, nothing. Adding insult to injury we got put on a bus with a Russian speaking guide that spoke very little English. The air conditioning on the bus ride home also didn’t work. Almost four hours in an uncomfortable oven. We were also charged $100 per person more than everyone else on the tour. Absolutely visit Petra. Wonderful place, wonderful people. Do it with another tour company.
What an amazing day. This was a place I always wanted to see. It did not disappoint. Kind, efficiant and great comms. A must do trip for any visitor to Sharm.

I went and it's one of my best travel experiences. start in the early morning, get to the end of the road and find yourself in front of the first monuments illuminated by the first rays of the sun is breathtaking. at least once in a lifetime it is to try. there is a lot to walk because there is a lot to see.

We travel from Sharm el sheikh, good bus air conditioned, the guides were very good, comfy ferry boat, the food wasn't great but maybe it's just me. Petra itself was absolutely gorgeous every bit as we expected. All in all a very well organised trip, no complaints whatsoever ,well worth the money paid. I recommend it to everybody.
