I traveled solo and felt completely safe and well taken care of. - My driver Iyad was a true gentleman — very knowledgeable and respectful. The team messaged me the night before to confirm everything, which gave me peace of mind. The sites were stunning and less crowded than I expected. I learned so much and enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend this tour for curious travelers!

A full and unforgettable day! - A full and unforgettable day! Fadi Al-Hourani was both our driver and an excellent guide. Jerash was majestic, Ajloun was peaceful, and Um Qais completely surprised us with its views of the Golan Heights and the Sea of Galilee. We had a rustic meal cooked on firewood in a heritage-style restaurant. A real Jordanian experience!
