Excellent in every aspect - What a memorable day! Bader was waiting for us and we were instantly impressed with his professionalism. The car was spotless. On our way to Petra, we stopped for coffees and fresh fruit. Bader gave us lots of information on the history of Jordan which was incredibly interesting. Once we arrived in Petra. Bader dropped us off at the main entrance. He was there ready for us when we had finished our excursion. We didn’t have any waiting time. Our journey home was comfortable and Bader asked if we needed to stop for food and drinks. Nothing was too much to ask and he just wanted to ensure we had a safe and comfortable journey. Would highly recommend.

Convenient and Flexible Petra Trip - My sister and I took a day trip to Petra with Hussein as my driver, and everything went smoothly. He picked us up from my hotel on time and was very accommodating when I asked to be dropped off at the Citadel afterward. The drive was comfortable, and Hussein was friendly and professional throughout the trip. A convenient and well-organized experience overall.

Excellent one day trip to Petra. - If time is limited and you want just a day trip to Petra, this is the trip for you. It is a private tour, with great flexibility. Our driver and guide on route was outstanding (Mr Bardaghawi); friendly, informative, accommodating, and a great driver! Our Petra guide Mohammed was similarly excellent. I can recommend this trip with this tour company and these guides without reservation!

Best Tour in Jordan! - This was a wonderful once-in-a-lifetime tour. Bardaghawi was the absolute best tour guide. He was welcoming and friendly. He shared a lot of great information and helpful hints about visiting Petra that really helped us enjoy the day! Petra is a must-see attraction when in Jordan and I highly recommend Bardaghawi and this company! True professional and a great ambassador for the Kingdom of Jordan!

Good experience. Professionally handled - We enjoyed our day in Petra. Our driver Zak communicated with us the day before and so did the company when the driver couldn’t contact us. He picked us up on time, drove us to Petra , waited for us, and brought us to our hotel in Amman. He was very helpful answering our questions.

Day trip to Petra so much to see - Hotel pick up my Bardaghawi right on time, good communications using what’s app. He was great, showing me points of interest along the way. Then I was personally guided around Petra by Mohammed who was very knowledgeable. I spent about 5 hours on the site exploring and being amazed by the incredible stone works. All in all it was an outstanding tour.

A Day Well-Spent in Petra - Lovely Petra experience that lived up to its billing. Our driver Mahmuod Awad was very helpful & made the 3-hour each way drive feel as comfortable as it can get.

Dead Sea to Petra - Our tour guide who drove us from our hotel to Petra was absolutely amazing. He was not only a safe and skilled driver, but also incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Jordan, which made the journey so much more enriching. What impressed us most was how accommodating he was — when we changed our plans and decided not to go to Wadi Rum, he seamlessly adjusted the itinerary and took us to other beautiful sites instead, making sure we still had a memorable experience. His flexibility, kindness, and expertise truly made our trip special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Jordan.
