Amazing Tour with Bardaghawi!!! - The trip was an absolutely amazing experience, my driver Bardaghawi had me lost for words at how generous and eager he was to make my trip as enjoyable as possible from start to finish. One of the best guides I have ever had and hope to have him for tours again back in Jordan!

A simple day out with stunning scenery - The service to get there was painless and easy on me, easily managed to get a ticket and get on the hike. The views were breathtaking and the hiking wasn’t even that difficult if you stay on the main path. My driver - Shadi - was very accommodating and helpful with tips of what to do and what not to do once I got there.

Drive to Petra with Faisal - Faisal was a fantantic driver. Not only he wery respectfull and his comunications was very good in English. We felt safe and in good hands all the time.
We were constantly running late but Faisal was very patient and waited for us every time. Not only we had a great drive to Petra and back in the clean car but also we learned few local things about Amman and few words in arabic, but also few photographic tricks since he is a good photogtapher too. On top of that we got some nice sweet treat on the way and water. Faisal took real good care of us. Thank you! P.s. He has the most adorable cat Killua :) make sure to ask him to show you the pictures of Killua

Amazing Jordan! - We went to Jordan on a girls trip from Dubai and had the best time. Wail, our tour guide took us around Jordan to the most amazing places - Wadi Rum, Petra, Jerash, Dead Sea. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. Enjoyed every bit of the journey and as girls safety and security was taken care of with utmost respect and care, and that made the trip even more memorable!

Must go tour!!! - Definetly recommend! Hussan, the driver made the trip excellent. I had as a good time with him in the car the same while I was in Petra. He quickly understood I was interested in culture and explained to me things I never knew about such as Arabic music and how they change their accent la to fit a type of music. Also went to some very local pit stops where I had some of the best food I have eaten here. I would do this again even if it’s just the car ride as the conversations and experiences with Hussan were that good!

Full day private tour to Petra from Amman - Beautiful day thanks also to the help of the driver. He picked us up at the hotel on time at the indicated time. He took us to Petra and we had a short commute on the way. Once in Petra he indicated that we should be able to have lunch and head towards the tour
As per agreed time he came to fetch us. Kind and helpful person. I recommend him !!

Great drive/experience! - This was a lovely experiences and Yuones was an excellent driver! He was safe and thoughtful, and made sure I was able to see all the best views on the way to Petra. 4 hours in Petra is short, but it’s enough to see a good chunk of it, and on a hot day you might want to be out in the sun much longer!

Great service - Mahmmud was right on time to pick me up, he was kind, friendly and explained a lot of Jordan to me since it was my first time. I did the all day Petra trip and when I requested an additional hour, he did not mind at all. I am really glad I booked this tour.
