This is not a Petra tour. It is one GetYourGuide listing that sells seven different short private day trips out of Amman — Jerash, Madaba, Mount Nebo, the Dead Sea, an Amman city orientation — under a single product id. Petra is not among them. It is on this site because it is the only product of its kind in the catalogue and it has 102 reviews behind it, and because leaving it out of a catalogue that claims to list everything would be the dishonest option.
One listing, seven booking options, each a different trip. Prices are per person and are the "from" prices the listing showed on the snapshot date printed in the footer. Every option is private, with hotel pickup in Amman, an air-conditioned vehicle and an English-speaking driver.

Because the catalogue on this site is not a shortlist of favourites. It is every product we could verify that runs from Amman and that a person planning a Petra trip might reasonably meet while looking — and this is one of them, sitting at the top of the price sort at $15 while every actual Petra tour starts at $84.
That gap is exactly why it is labelled everywhere it appears. A comparison table sorted by price that put a 45-minute city orientation above a full-day trip to Petra, without saying which was which, would be worse than useless. So the catalogue prints "not a Petra tour" on its row, its card and its bar on the price ladder, and the headline range on that page is the range of the Petra tours only.
The most common reason people arrive here by mistake is geography. Jerash — the strongest of these seven options — is about 45 km north of Amman. Petra is 235 km south. They are on opposite sides of the capital, and no day trip does both; on this site exactly one tour reaches both, over three days.
If it is Petra you are planning, this listing is not the one — whatever its own page now says. Its description, its highlights and its photographs lead with Petra and the Dead Sea; the seven trips it actually sells are the ones above, and none of them drives south. We have checked the option picker, not the marketing. If it is a spare day in Amman, it may well be the one.
None of these seven options goes to Petra, so the Petra ticket does
not arise — and yet the listing's own inclusions offer one, as
Petra entrance ticket (if option selected)
. There is no option to select that
it could belong to. The same list offers a Dead Sea resort ticket the same way, and
that one is real: the resort day includes the entry. The sites the other options do
visit have their own gates — Jerash is 10 JOD including its museum, on the Ministry
of Tourism's published table — and the listing does not say which of those are
covered. We have marked its ticket status unclear rather than guess, and the honest
advice is to read the inclusions on the booking page for the option you actually
pick.
