I hiked Petra today. It was exhausting, but I can say I did it! On the way back, I rode a camel to the "treasury' site and a horse the final kilometer. Lots of Bedouins were selling their wares along the way, but the sad part is that they have their little children solicit the tourists to buy jewelry, scarves and drinks. One little boy was maybe 4 and spoke no English, except to say, "You rest,: as he pointed to his mother's tent. Lots of the little children were tiny, maybe 4 or 5 years old.
