Can you fly from Egypt to Petra?
Can you fly from Egypt to Petra? Easiest way is to fly Cairo - Amman and then carry on from there. If you want to include more points of interest in your trip, shorten Cairo and include a few days in Sinai - St Catherine, Nuweiba and then Taba before crossing into Eilat and then Aqaba before heading up to Petra.
Is Egypt or Jordan cheaper?
Average prices are higher in Jordan but you can definitely travel on a limited budget, there are good hostels in Petra, have a look at Sabaa Hotel and in Aqaba I have stayed at Al Qidra Hotel (near the center of Aqaba) and at Red Sea Dive Center (near Tala Bay, South Beach), both are reasonably priced and nice.
Can you do a day trip to Petra from Egypt?
Even if you have only a limited amount of time in the area, you can still visit the ancient city of Petra, in Jordan, on this full-day tour from Dahab, Egypt.
Do you need 2 days in Petra?
In my opinion, spending 2 days in Petra will give you plenty of time to explore this beautiful ancient city and world wonder. By entering Petra through the Siq on day 1, while taking the back entrance on day 2, there is plenty of variation during your visit.
