After a couple of days in Eilat relaxing and snorkelling in the Red Sea (beautiful reef fish which you can spend a lot of time watching while just floating), we took an organized tour to Petra. Normally it is just a day trip, but we spent two nights at Petra so we could have some extra time to walk around the site. These are mountains in Jordan on the drive to Petra from the border crossing near Eilat.
