Everyone will tell you 3 hours in Petra isn’t enough time—and it isn’t. But we had very limited time in Amman, so it worked for what we had. Definitely only going to see the highlights of Petra, but it was 90° that day, so we were okay with it. Our guide at Petra was amazing—he knew we only had a few hours so he made sure we got in as much as we could. The Dead Sea was amazing—once in a lifetime experience. Our driver, Basel, was fantastic—kind and knowledgeable. Definitely a very safe, careful driver. He was really helpful and made the day easy. If you have limited time in Jordan, this is a good way to cram in the highlights!

Hospitability, all-around nice people and a big doses of culture and knowledge.

Andrea_A, Jul 2023

Mazen, the driver, acted as a great guide. His English was good, fluent and not only commented on every single aspect he could possibly come up with, but he also was easygoing enough to have deep conversations about historic aspects of Jordan in general, and the places in particular. We are unhappy about the low availability of tour guides in Spanish. We couldn't start our tour on time, but Mazen was happy to fill in with short show-arounds we wouldn't otherwise have experienced. From herbs, to Ottoman empire fortresses, to local fauna, biblical stories, you name it. He is the kind of guy you want to get a first impression of the country he is representative of. Later on, we had a fun, knowledgeable and fluent fuide in Spanish. It was too bad that it took longer than we would have liked before starting our tour. The only problem was not his Spanish, but the pronunciation of his vowels that made it harder for us to grasp, other than that, he was perfect even showing some photograph skills that came to be phenomenal when we checked them latwr on.

Driver was best ever. Knowledgable and personable. Tour guide at Petra was excellent as well. He went above and beyond to “do it our way”

Disappointing Trip

Michelle_M, Jul 2022

The driver couldn’t speak much English, no Wi-Fi on board. Got to Petra, original guide wasn’t there, eventually one turned up who was really good, however said if we went on the horse he would stop our tour as they would want money for us to get off. Didn’t get lunch at the specified restaurant ended up at a back street cafe, food horrible, would not recommend this trip

Response from Host, Jul 2022

I am sorry to read that, reference the lunch, due to force majeure reasons, it was changed and I understand it was under your acceptance. I personally do recommend having the lunch outside after coming back from the long Petra walk back. Unfortunately, you didn’t like our local food, which is part of the travel experience and culture. As for the WIFI, we apologize as driver had an unexpected technical issue on the way. The Driver speaks advanced English and the Petra classic visit was completed successfully with our English-Speaking Guide, meeting and exceeding your expectations as you mention in your questionnaire feedback in destination which reflected totally the opposite of your review, rating all as excellent.

Excelente tour.

Muy buena empresa. El chófer Basel Mousa excelente, muy agradable y servicial. Fue un viaje muy largo en automóvil desde Amman a Petra y luego el Mar Muerto. El guía en español en Petra llamado Salah excelente!. El Resort en el Mar Muerto muy bueno. El restaurante muy bueno y delicioso. Recomiendo esta empresa.
