Me riding a camel

Getting TO/AROUND: Riding a donkey or a camel in Petra can be very useful transportation method. Donkeys can ride you up to the monastery. The ride can be a little risky, as donkeys go fast along the big slopes of the climbing up. But still, it's a very intelligent way of preserving energy. Also, a ride in a camel back from the restaurant to the Treasury will save you some more self energy and is a nice way of sightseeing all the monuments on your way out of Petra.
