A worthwhile dive into history - This tour was a great opportunity to enjoy the history of the area. I particulary enjoyed the Baptism site, where you will get a guided tour, see the historic landmarks (like the actual site Jesus was baptized at), and some of the churches built more recently; and get to touch the Jordan river. My driver Bardaghawi was great - he added on a site on the way since it was included in my Jordan Pass, hunted down a post office for me, and provided lots of historic and current context throughout. I would highly recommend this tour, and Bardaghawi as a driver!

Great Tour at Madaba/ worth the money - What a nice experience this was! I rarely put comments only but literally this was a 10/10! Our tour guide was Mumen and he was fantastic! Very kind and warm! He gave us details about the sites we visited, and even more recommendations for what to do and places to visit while in Jordan! At the end of the tour he took us to eat some typical Jordanian desserts and it was overall a fantastic experience!!! 10/10! Kudos to Mumen, he’s the best!

Great Day Away from Amman - Mr. Mint was fantastic! He arrived early, was very friendly, and got me to all the sites quickly and comfortably. He’s an excellent driver. And he did not mind when I spent a few minutes taking pictures a couple of times. He also took me to a couple of most unexpected bonus sites. I had a great day and highly recommend him and this day tour!

Solo trip for the books!!!! - Absolutely unforgettable experience. The Holy City tour with Bardaghawi was more than just sightseeing — it was deeply moving on a spiritual level. Bardaghawi was incredible from start to finish: professional, kind, and fully present. He constantly checked in on me, especially with the intense heat, making sure I felt comfortable and cared for. It truly felt like VIP service — not just in the logistics, but in the way he honored the significance of each site we visited. I walked away feeling inspired, uplifted, and incredibly grateful. Highly recommend!
