What people love about touring Petra solo
- Best of Jordan
This was a great trip! I loved the group I was with and the places we visited. My only feedback was the lunch options that were buffet style. I am a vegetarian and the places we went to were expensive. I would have like another food option at this times. I do with we had longer Jeep ride at wadi rum and I would have paid more for that. The hotels we stayed at were nice and the bus was really nice. Great trip and awesome memories!
- Red Sea Diving 8 days from Amman
Incredible tour!!! I booked the holiday for my husband's 50th birthday, and we had the best time! Jordan is an amazing country, and we felt safe and welcome during our time there. From being met at the airport to being dropped off, everything was well-organised and enjoyable. Ahmed, our driver, was prompt and drove us brilliantly around his fabulous country. Petra was undoubtedly a highlight, brought to life by our guide Mahmoud, we hiked up to the monastery and the treasury overlook afterwards on our own - tiring but unmissable. Wadi Rum was stunning and the jeep ride another incredible experience. Even better was eating lunch with Richard Ayoade and David Baddiel who were staying on the camp with us (watch out for a Travel Man Christmas special filmed in Jordan) Communication with Elizabeth was spot on and there were even a few extra special birthday touches. If you're in any doubt about Jordan or Booking-tours.com, don't be just book it soon! We've made memories there we'll treasure forever

What our customers ask about Petra Tours for Solo Travelers
What are the most social group activities included in Petra Country Region tours?
The tours blend adventure and social interaction through several key activities. Groups often spend 4-5 hours together on jeep safaris through Wadi Rum where they share picnic lunches and stop for traditional Bedouin tea. Evenings bring people together around campfires for traditional BBQ dinners and stargazing sessions. Walking tours through Petra's ancient pathways give travelers natural opportunities to connect. A TourRadar traveler shares: "The group bonded quickly during our Wadi Rum jeep tour and the evening BBQ at the Bedouin camp created lasting friendships."
What kind of accommodation arrangements are available for solo travelers?
Solo travelers can choose between shared or private spaces throughout their journey. Options include standard rooms at established properties like the Larsa Hotel in Amman or traditional tents at Bedouin desert camps. Most tours let guests either pay extra for private rooms or share with another solo traveler of the same gender. A TourRadar guest notes: "The Ammarin Bedouin Camp near Little Petra was very welcoming and comfortable with shared facilities that made it easy to meet other travelers."
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Petra Country Region?
The peak seasons run from March to May and September to November. These months bring mild temperatures and the highest number of visitors which creates natural opportunities for socializing. Booking data shows October draws the most travelers. Summer (June-August) temperatures can reach uncomfortable highs while winter months (December-February) bring cold conditions especially in Petra and Wadi Rum's desert landscapes.
How social are the group tours in Petra Country Region for solo travelers?
The tours naturally encourage connections through shared experiences. Days include 4-5 hour jeep rides through Wadi Rum and walks among Petra's ruins.

According to one TourRadar guest: "The tour was fantastic with Rania our guide bringing the whole group together so that after only 3 days we felt like old friends."
What type of accommodation can I expect as a solo traveler in Petra and surrounding areas?
Accommodations range from established hotels to authentic desert camps. In Petra many stay at 3-4 star properties like the Petra Guest House or Movenpick Nabatean Castle. Wadi Rum offers experiences at camps like Sun City or Mazayen. A TourRadar traveler reports: "The Bedouin camp had a very comfy bed great food and nice campfire area to watch the stars. It's also right by a popular rock climbing spot which offers nice views."

Daily activities focus on Petra's main archaeological treasures. Groups explore the Treasury at sunrise walk the ancient backdoor trail from Little Petra and visit the Street of Facades and Royal Tombs.
