It gives you time, too, to get up onto the heights (Monastery etc.) where the guided tours never go - in fact they rarely get beyond the amphitheatre a third of the way along the valley! More than happy to discuss further if you wish. Still doing a bit of research. Flying to Tel Aviv from Mancester, then after a few days plan to fly to Eilat, but will probably stay in Aqaba instead, 3-4 days, beach stuff/relaxation. Would make sense to stay in Petra on the way up north, looking to have a somewhat circular trip (e.g. Dead Sea) ending in Jerusalem, then back to airport etc.- 14 night trip, would prefer not to stay in more than 5 different hotels. Public transport/taxi only. It's all a bit undecided at the moment, other than the dates of the flights to/from Tel Aviv.
