A Wadi Musa Hotel or the Petra Visitor Centre as the Drop-off
Overnight guests choose their hotel. Day visitors may choose the visitor centre. Write the exact point where the car should stop.
Jordan Airport Transfer2 min
A hotel in Wadi Musa and the Petra Visitor Centre are different places to be dropped. Choose by where you will sleep: a hotel if you stay in town, the visitor centre if the visit is a day trip. The drive from Queen Alia is about 2.5 to 3.5 hours either way.
| Wadi Musa hotel | Petra Visitor Centre | |
|---|---|---|
| Good for | An overnight stay | A day trip |
| Where the car stops | At the hotel door | At the entrance area |
| Bags | Go to your room | Stay with you for the day |
Staying the night
If your hotel is in Wadi Musa, write its name and address as the destination. The bags go to the room, and you walk or ride to the entrance in the morning. Tell the hotel the time you expect to arrive so that dinner and the desk are ready.
A day trip
For a day trip, the visitor centre is where the visit begins. Decide what happens to your bags during the visit and where the return ride will start. A drop at the centre also needs a pickup there for the evening.
Check the official rules
Look at the official Jordan Tourism and Petra pages for current opening hours and ticket rules before you plan a day trip, because they can change. The car ride is the road to the place you name and does not include entry, so plan the ticket as a separate step.
Which to write
Write the one place you want the car to stop, not both. Continue to Petra on the day you land compares Wadi Musa with Amman as a first night, and one drop-off per request explains the single destination. The request starts on the Petra transfer page; see how booking works for the form.
