    Getting TO/AROUND: These 2 tips are dedicated to the girls of The-Wandering-Camelwho are well expertised in "ship of the Desert"'s issues.

    All I can say is that the camels are hard working, patient, and not complaining.
    And they don't drink mineral water, you know.
    At the end of the day they are totally exausted.

    Cost of one way taxi Eilat border crossing- Akaba- Petra is +-30 Jordania Dinar
