Excellent service - Our day with Yasser was amazing! He picked us up in his spotless car, stocked with Wi-Fi, cold water, and snacks such a nice touch. We started with a city tour of Amman, and Yasser navigated the traffic like a pro, taking us to all the key sights and the best views. Then we headed to Jerash and Ajloun, but not before Yasser found us a great spot for an excellent BBQ lunch—it was so good! On the way back, he even stopped at a stunning lookout over the Jordan Valley. After a full day of sightseeing and delicious food, we made it back to our hotel right on time. Huge thanks to Yasser for an unforgettable day!

Joys of Jordan - Our trip to Jordan was a once in a lifetime trip. We had a super driver/guide Zaid who was so knowledgeable and helpful. He took us to all the highlights and explained everything to us. I would recommend everyone to visit Jordan and get an insight into its rich history. We have great memories of our time there and hope that more people will travel there and experience the wonders of Jordan. Thanks again to our amazing guide Zaid.

Beautiful tour - The views of the North part of Jordan are beautiful. Yousef was a great guide, got us to the castle before all the tour buses and great driver to Jarash.

A lot of History in One Day - Mo was a very safe driver and knowledgeable about Amman and Jordanian history. He was very flexible allowing me as much time as I needed at all the sites. The sites at Geresh and the Citadel have excellent markers describing the sites making it unnecessary to pay extra for a guide.

A must do activity is you only have one day in Amman - We were picked up on the dot by our friendly and knowledgeable driver, Mumen Rahim. The itinerary was slightly altered as a civic protest was planned in Amman on that day, and we changed the order of visiting various locations to accommodate for that. The historic sites we visited were simply mind blowing and there was enough time to go thorough each place at our own pace. At the end of the tour he dropped us off at Rainbow Street at our request and even recommended a fantastic restaurant for our evening meal to cap off a great day off soft drying
