977 reviews

A northern satellite of Petra, Little Petra centers on a narrow canyon known as Siq al-Barid. With its water cisterns, carved houses, and rock-cut stairs, it has more of a lived-in feel than Petra proper. Its signature site, the Painted House, is home to one of the only surviving Nabatean painted interiors, which features jaw-dropping frescoes.

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.

The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears. - Bedouin Proverb In traditional Bedouin communities, children learned to ride before they could walk and horses were considered an essential part of life. As the world turns to computers and cars, a dedicated family of Bedouin horsemen are working hard to keep their traditions alive. Mountain Horse Stables is home to award winning marathon (endurance) horses as well as many rescued happy trail horses. In addition to training and breeding, the stable does on-site equine rehabilitation. Our rehabilitated horses are returned to their (now educated) owners or kept to lead a life of pampered luxury as one of our trail horses. We are licensed by the Petra Development and Tourism Authority and local Bedouin owned and operated.

Unforgettable Trip with Aref
Our tour guide was Aref who went above and beyond. The love he has for his city his passion for educating tourists is so genuine. If you book this experience (or any experience with Jordan Inspiration Tours) ask for Aref and you will not be disappointed! We did a small tour of Little Petra and then made our way to the top of the mountain where we had snacks and hot tea. The 3 hours went by so fast with all of the fun we were having!
