The perfect day tour

Noshin_H, Jul 2024

This was an amazing tour! We were picked up at our hotel at the time specified and our driver Ahmed was absolutely wonderful. He was very nice and patient throughout the entire drive. When we got to Petra we were given a guided tour by Sami who is the best! He is so knowledgeable and funny, we learned so much while having a great time! We took longer than we were supposed to while completing the steps to the Monestary, and Ahmed was kind enough to get us boxed lunches to make sure we don’t miss our next leg of the tour. We then went to Wadi Rum, where we were driven in the sand by Yusuf who was a great driver. We felt safe, while still having an adventurous time in the desert. Make sure to watch the sunset here! Overall this was the perfect day tour and it ended up lasting 18 hours from pick up to drop off, jam packed with everything we wanted to do in both of these sites!

Thank you for sharing such a detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that your tour was everything you hoped for, and that Ahmed, Sami, and Yusuf made the experience even more enjoyable. It’s wonderful that you got to enjoy the beauty of Petra and Wadi Rum, and we’re glad we could accommodate your timing with the boxed lunches. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re so happy your day was filled with unforgettable moments. We hope to welcome you again for more adventures in the future!

We had such a great time with Jordanian Mappers. Our driver, Mohammad, was super fun. He kept us on track and got us safely everywhere we needed to be. I was super impressed that he was able to get us to Petra AND Wadi Rum for a jeep tour, tea, and sunset, even after our cruise ship came in late. We got back to Aqaba and even had some time to spare, so he picked up coffees for us and we cruised around town while he showed us some neat things in the city. We had so much fun. Our guide at Petra, Sami, was awesome too. He knew we were on a tight schedule and he did an awesome tour for us, helping us see in an hour and a half just about everything he shows in two and a half hours. We were all panting and sweating when we were done!! Definitely not for the faint at heart, though cramming everything was completely our choice. The buffet lunch was so good too. A great, wide taste of Jordanian food. I’d 100% recommend this company. Especially if you don’t want to do a tour bus excursion from the cruise ship. These guys make a personalized tour awesome. No waiting around for the lingerers in your tour bus group!
