Amazing hike, once in a lifetime experience. - Absolutely amazing experience. The hike is what we came for, and it exceeded high expectations. From vast desserts to colourful canyons to the most captivating rock formations, the environment and surroundings constantly changed multiple times a day. Not to forget the beginning, seeing the treasury but more breathtakingly the Petra region. However, my favourite part of the trip was not hiking, but the service provided from (sorry for the spelling) Ali, Hashem, and Nemir. Their cooking and kindness went a long way. Lastly, Titi our guide, deserving a mention of his own due to the passion he has for not only his work, but for the groups surrounding him to. An incredibly kind guide, who’s even better company. Thank you Treks Team for the thorough logistics and the experience of a life time. P.S if you’re considering, do it, you will not regret it.

Best vacation ever - This was my first time participating in a guided tour and I am sad that I only started to do so at age 51. I wish I would have started guided hiking tours 20 years ago. You have all of the solitude you may want as well as the comfort of knowing you won’t get lost and you won’t run out of water. The guide, Munther, was a pleasure to share a week with. It was great to gain insights into the flora and fauna as we were walking. His support team was great too. It was like coming home to family and friends after a day‘s hike. The food was fantastic, home cooked Jordanian meals. In the well organized prep sheets, prior to my arrival, it says you may want to bring snacks. I can assure you this isn’t necessary. There was plenty and tasty foods for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The sleeping mattresses were great and really let you to have a great night‘s sleep. I can’t wait to do another tour with Treks. I almost forgot to mention, I was allowed to bring my dog with me too. Yogi may be the first miniature poodle on the trail! And from Yogi‘s behavior, I think he loved it too.

A must-do adventure!! - My sister organized the trip and I had no idea what to expect. From this day forward I’m only going to camp the way Treks provided. First-class… all we had to haul was water, layers to keep warm and our packed lunches prepared by a lovely team. The best way to see Jordan and experience the historical significance, the cuisine, and the kind-hearted people. I am coming back for another hike next year! Such a wonderful vacation! Can’t recommend it enough… this is a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks, Treks and Munther!!

Petra to Wadi Rum trek - This my 2nd time in Gordon! I left my heart in Petra and Wadi Rum. it was great to have Monther as our guide from Trek. The timing was perfect (Novembet)- weather was cool. we spent a perfect day in a magical place Petra to Wadi Rum, it was well orgenaized, timing, perfect lunches- jordanian food, magicals view, perfect explanation for the mystery of this paradise. then, we excperienced 6 wounderful extreme days including hiking and Jeep tour, delecious jordanian food and the sky was magical at night. I would highly recommend taking Monther as guide trip (you will feel him as a friend), he was aware for all our needs, nothing was missed. one cons: be ready to become addicted to these places/experience types.

Once in a lifetime adventure - What a special lifetime experience. You can not go to this trip and not fall in love with God's special creation of the beautiful sand mountains and crystal clear skies, or not zone out from life's business when you hear the sound of the pure waters in the beautiful valleys. The air is so refreshing that you don't want to leave. Meeting with locals adds to the uniqueness of the trip. It was so well organized by Treks, well thought of, full of rich moments, there was not one dull moment. Our local guide Munther was such a cool easy going and a welcoming guide, very enthusiastic yet proffessional. So highly reccommended if you want an authentic Jordanian experience.

A MUST TRIP - We were on a 5 days trip with leading guiders Emad Madah and Munther Altiti ( treks). It was a trip to remember, well organized from the smallest details to the bigger ones. We lived the Jordanian experience with all our senses (living dorms, food, music, meeting local people, hiking in different nature types and more). The guiders took care of our safety (specially girls safety), made sure we got our 3 daily meals and secured a LOT of drinking water. The two of them have amazing energy, knowledge and professional experience. I highly recommend them as guiders (and as a friends).

Unforgettable trip 🐫🫶 - It was an amazing trip! We spent an unforgettable 5 days crossing the north and south of the desert in Jordan. Everything was perfect, thanks to TREKS for the best tour program they organized, and especially thanks to Monther, our guide, who has become our friend. We started our trip from Petra at a local camp, which allowed us to experience the local lifestyle. The locals were friendly and generously kind. Then we moved to Wadi Rum and spent another two days there. The camps, the walking tours, the food, and the overall experience—everything was perfect. I highly recommend booking such a trip; it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had.
