Book a transfer from Petra to Wadi Rum — connecting two of Jordan's most iconic destinations: the ancient Nabataean city carved from rose-red rock and the vast desert wilderness known as the Valley of the Moon.
The 110 km journey takes 1.5 to 2 hours heading south through the Jordanian desert. The landscape becomes increasingly dramatic — sandstone mountains, red sand dunes, and vast open spaces that feel like another planet. Transfers drop off at Wadi Rum Village, the gateway to the protected desert area.
Wadi Rum is a UNESCO World Heritage desert landscape of towering sandstone mountains, natural arches, narrow canyons, and red-orange sand dunes. Known as the "Valley of the Moon," it was T.E. Lawrence's base during the Arab Revolt and served as the filming location for The Martian, Lawrence of Arabia, and Dune. Visitors explore by 4x4 jeep, camel, or on foot, and overnight stays in Bedouin desert camps under impossibly star-filled skies are a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
