She visits their most spectacular sites such as the Treasury at Petra, learns about their religious beliefs and explores hidden tombs lost to the sands of time.

Episode 2
Alice begins her journey in the ancient trading centre of Petra, crowned as one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. Here, the Nabataeans carved exquisite buildings, theatres and grandiose tombs out of solid sandstone rock. She discovers their secret skills in architecture and engineering. She then journeys south and across the border into Saudi Arabia. Following ancient trade routes, she heads towards one of the world's few oases, AlUla. This was the Nabataean's second city, Hegra, established as their influence spread. The archeological site of Hegra has only recently opened up to the world and is now host to an international team of experts making new discoveries about every aspect of who the Nabataeans were and how they lived. Here, Alice explores tombs, uncovers an ancient buried city and even comes face to face with a Nabataean.
