Bassil was an excellent... - Bassil was an excellent guide for our trip to Petra. He provided clear communication regarding details prior to the trip and picked us up from our hotel on the morning of the tour. He was very personable and provided a detailed history of Petra while allowing us to view the sites at our own pace. He was an excellent guide and we would recommend him to anyone looking for a convenient and pleasant Petra tour.

Great Guide - Bassil is a very good tour guide. She knows and tells Petra very well. Good general history also helped us get to know Petra better. We arrived on time, started and finished our tour on time. We were very pleased. I highly recommend Basil to explore Petra.

Petra is the best, and this tour makes it even better - Petra is one of the coolest places on earth so it's not hard to walk around. But Alfarjat was amazing host who imparted amazing additional information to my high school and me, making the experience even more magical. He's definitely an expert, not to mention professional and light-hearted.

Explained what we will see and how to get there. He also gave us an abundant amount of information, stories, history, culture and religion explaining the area and its significance Doing this tour without basil would have been like seeing a movie without sound. Excellent itinerary. An excellent guide very well worth it. Bassil, gave us some tips and advice for the next day. Where to go and what to see Thank you bassil!!
