Tour Itinerary
This Tabuk nature tour Saudi Arabia begins with an immersive journey into the heart of history and nature, combining Tabuk desert landscapes with powerful spiritual narratives as part of unforgettable northern Saudi Arabia excursions. Our first stop is the Land of Midian, a cornerstone of Midian and Maqna exploration and one of the most significant chapters in religious history. Dating back to the late second millennium BC, Midian is where Prophet Moses, peace be upon him, sought refuge after fleeing Egypt, lived for ten years, and prepared for his divine mission, making it one of the most meaningful historic natural sites Tabuk.
We continue our visit to Moses’ Well, the place where Moses met his future wife Zipporah, and defended the flock of Prophet Shu’ayb. This stop reflects the harmony between faith, ethics, and the surrounding desert and biblical landscapes, offering a true nature-focused Saudi travel experience.
Next we arrive at Maqna, a charming coastal city on the Gulf of Aqaba, and a highlight of scenic and cultural exploration in the region. Known as the Twelve Springs of Moses, Maqna is a living example of the natural wonders Saudi Arabia, where freshwater springs and palm groves have sustained life for centuries.
Then we visit Wadi Musa, one of the most wonderful natural wonders in the Tabuk region, which captivates with its unique beauty and distinctive location on the Gulf of Aqaba, just 20 kilometers north of Maqna, giving the visitor an unforgettable spiritual and natural experience.
Staying overnight in a hotel in Tabuk city.
Day two focuses on deeper exploration of the region’s dramatic terrain, making this journey a true 2-day Saudi nature getaway designed for travelers seeking both meaning and adventure.
We begin with one of the most mysterious and fascinating sites, the split rock at Horeb. Many followers of different religions believe it to be the rock that the Prophet Moses struck with his staff, causing water to gush forth to quench the thirst of the Israelites. The surrounding formations highlight the raw beauty of Tabuk desert landscapes, where geology and belief intersect.
We continue our journey with a thrilling Jabal al-lawz adventure, ascending the highest mountain in Tabuk at 2,549 meters above sea level. It is the only place in Saudi Arabia that experiences snowfall almost annually, a natural surprise that contradicts the stereotypical image of the desert.
Through a stunning desert route, we continue our journey through breathtaking scenery to the site of the Golden Calf and Moses’ Altar, where religious narratives tell the story of the Israelites during Moses’ forty-day absence on Mount Sinai, and the construction of the Golden Calf with twelve pillars representing the tribes of Israel.
Then we visit the cave of the Prophet Elijah, located at a height of approximately 300 meters above the site of Moses, and above it is a sub-peak of Mount Sinai topped by two rectangular rocks called the Tablets of the Commandments, in a symbolic and moving scene that combines nature and faith. This itinerary is thoughtfully designed as a budget friendly nature experience and an affordable nature and history tour, offering exceptional value without compromising depth or authenticity.
After this journey rich in stories and spiritual heritage, we conclude our program and prepare to depart, carrying with us an unforgettable experience from the land of Tabuk, where nature meets history and faith.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of embarking on a tour with Trip500 Tours in Jordan, and I cannot sing their praises enough! From start to finish, this experience was nothing short of exceptional, and I am still in awe of the breathtaking beauty I encountered during the tours of Petra and Wadi Rum. The attention to detail and the level of professionalism displayed by Trip500 Tours were second to none. From the comfortable transportation to the delicious local cuisine provided, every aspect of the tour was meticulously planned and executed. I Highly recommend Trip500 Tours to anyone planning a visit to Jordan

Those who are looking for will definitely find a reliable and friendly travel company - Trip 500 Book a cruise on the AROYA from Istanbul via the Suez Canal to Saudi Arabia (Jeddah, Al-Ula, Riyadh) My family and I also decided to fulfill our long-held dream of traveling to Jordan. For several months, I searched various websites for travel companies that could arrange for us on strictly designated days - a 10-day combined group tour of Jordan's historical sites and an individual vacation in Aqaba on the Red Sea. Among the numerous expensive and inconvenient offers for us, there was a single offer from Trip 500, which fully satisfied all our wishes and offered a very reasonable price. Jordan Tour (Amman, Jerash, Petra, Wadi Rum, Mount Nebo, Madaba, Dead Sea, Aqaba, Red Sea) it was perfectly organized in a comfortable minibus, accompanied by a professional guide. Accommodation during the entire trip was in 5-star hotels. We would like to especially thank the Trip 500 employee Mohannad Alshafi, whose attentive, patient and friendly attitude made our wonderful trip to Jordan possible. We strongly recommend Trip 500 to anyone who wants to travel without problems and at a reasonable price! We wish Trip 500 continued prosperity, success in business, many new grateful travelers, and health, happiness, good luck, and well-being to all employees.

The best value way to travel Jordan and the best way to see the country. Jordan is always safe for travel. Choose Trip500 and go We did a personally designed package for 9 days in Jordan with a driver but no guide (except for Petra). Mohannad worked very hard with us to plan a trip that suited our needs. It was great to have such personalised service and local information. The tour was excellent from the time we were picked up from the airport in Amman to when we were dropped off at Aqaba Airport.Our driver was very competent and always cracking jokes. All the drivers are very good and lovely.We had an amazing trip and Trip500 will be our number 1 choice for touring in Jordan. It's a wonderful country with exceptional people. It's very safe (like the Switzerland of the Middle East) and we were very comfortable travelling Jordan whilst Israel was still attacking other countries. It's a great time to go as the tourism numbers are less.

We did a private 6-day tour of Jordan, and the agency arranged everything for us.Our driver, Khaled, was extremely helpful and informative, always providing us with important insights and making sure we felt comfortable throughout the journey. He answered all our questions with patience and was very friendly, which made our holiday even more enjoyable.We can only highly recommend this agency.

Jordan should be in everyone’s bucket list! Our 5days family trip to Jordan was a great one and special shoutout to Trip500 for planning it all. Our guide (Abdul) & driver (Mohammad) were generous in sharing with us the history of Jordan (Jerash, Petra, Mount Nebo). I highly recommend engaging them for your trip to Jordan. And it is definitely safer than we thought with all that is happening.
