About This Tour in Petra

Itinerary

Wadi Musa

Lina will take you on a tour around... 4 hours

Lina will take you on a tour around Wadi Musa to understand the background where the two main characters of her novel grow up. She will explain the local culture and her experience in this beautiful town. Then she will pick a viewpoint where she can read parts of her novel, while overlooking the town and Petra mountains.

Petra

On this day, Lina will take you around... 7 hours

On this day, Lina will take you around places mentioned in the life of both of the main characters: the tour guide and the Nabatean carver. She will read parts of her novel in some quiet hidden gems. Depends on your preference, but we can also add some hiking and read on top of magnificent viewpoints and enjoy a quiet read. It's also a chance to dig deeper into our culture; the life of women here, the life of tour guides and the relationship of this work and affect of it on Lina's life. It could also be a great chance to talk about history, to understand the Nabateans and their lives. The carvings they left for us, and the knowledge that we still use until this day. It will be a mixture of walking, talking, reading and enjoying the local atmosphere in a way that was never done before.
