    The tour was amazing and Faisal certainly was a good guide. My only suggestion is not to spend the afternoon in Wadi Rum at the camp but maybe look at Amman in the morning and get to Wadi Rum just before sunset for the camel ride. Wadi Rum the next day was wonderful

    Had a great few days with the tour. Guide Faizal was absolutely superb from start to finish - hugely passionate and very knowledgeable. We saw many amazing sights right across Jordan. Our driver Yasser was great too, always felt very safe when we were covering long distances between location. The highligt for me was Petra - one of my bucket list destinations, and it didn't disappoint. Absolutely incredible place that has to be seen to be believed. But TourRadar, sort out the optional camel ride in Wadi Rum. Very overpriced for such a short ride, but much more important than that - the camels were not controlled in any safe way; there were 2 groups of camels walking side by side and they kept walking into each-other and a few group members got their legs trapped in between when they came together. Fortunately no injuries, but that's much more by luck than anything else. Most of us walked back to camp rather than getting on again. I have always enjoyed camel rides in the past, and have had many in the Sahara - this is the only one I have ever experienced that was unsafe. I would have scored 5/5 without the camels, but it's definitely 1 star less for this very poor experience. However, camels aside it was a great few days. Jordan is an amazing country with many beautiful places to visit, and the people there are very welcoming and friendly.

    Was a brilliant tour! So many really impressive places to see. The hotels were all really nice. Faisal, our guide, was brilliant, very knowledgeable and everything ran very smoothly. Anyone who is worried about safety in the region at the moment due to the war - don't be worried! Everything is very safe. In fact, it's probably the best possible time to visit - everywhere is so empty, when we got to the Treasury at Petra there were literally 4 other people there - amazing opportunity to get photos in front of a world wonder with nobody else in the shot! Would recommend to everyone!

    Good tour. Good itinerary and group. Overall, we were happy. I’d say the four-star were a little exaggerated. I’d say hotels were three star. Also, what was annoying was consulting with your radar before the tour to see if a Jordan pass was needed. The pass would include entry to sites and visa. This was around $100 cheaper than what we did. But they never told us. Finally the first day is a 15 min meeting that wasn’t worthwhile and shouldn’t be a tour day’

    The Essential Jordan tour for 7 days is amazing. You can fit everything in but it would be nice to have a couple of extra days along the way. Petra itself you could wander around in for 2 days. Spent 7 1/2 hours walking around and still didn’t have enough time. I would have to say our Guide Faizal was fantastic and made our trip even that more special, he is an asset with so much knowledge and great interpersonal skills.

    I HAD AN AMAZING TIME on this one week cultural tour 'Essential Jordan'. My experience in Petra and Wadi Rum was really exceptional. I travelled as a woman alone and I had a really friendly group and would recommend this experience. I felt safe and secure and our guide Faizal was very friendly, attentive and educational and gave good free time tips for eating out. The hotels we stayed in were all of a good standard of comfort and I loved the Wadi Rum camp ..it was my highlight. I found the whole experience very satisfying and although one has to expect early starts in order to see and get to specific ancient sights it was well worth the effort . We certainly got plenty of exercise walking around ancient sites. Petra in particular involves a lot of walking and high steps upward passes to see ancient monuments. Relaxing at the Dead Sea was a real bonus. Amman is a really interesting vibrant city if you make the effort to get an Uber downtown and eat out.

    The overall experience was good and there were no issues with the booking or the organization during the trip. Our guide Faizal was amazing. We really enjoyed the time with him. I would recommend the agency to explain maybe a little bit better how the trip is going to be developed because I found the description in the website not enough accurate. Also during the trip would be nice if the guide send all details of all the days in advance with also the extra activities and when they are going to take place. it will be easier to decide which activities to do or not.

      The Jordan Wonderer Package is adequate for a one day visit to Petra included in the tour.
