Ross· February 10th, 2023Great tour, but a lot of driving to see the amazing sites in Jordan. Hotel staff were nice but one hotel did not have working hot water. Another hotel had a broken elevator. Petra is so amazing it would be worth having a second day to explore more thoroughly.Show more

He was always happy to tweak the schedule to help us get the best out of our day. Amer really was a big part of why the tour was so good. The night spent in Wadi Rum was a personal highlight for me.
