    · March 11th, 2024
    I joined the 6-day Passage to Petra tour on Feb 18-23, 2024. My experience has been a awesome and memorable one. Every single encounter was faultless from beginning to end. Everything was stellar, from the Customer Service team who answered all my questions in a very timely, informative and professional manner, to the representative (I'm sorry I forgot his name) who met me at the Queen Alia Airport and helped me with the visitor visa, customs, luggage (there was an issue with my luggage, and he got me through that ordeal), to the hotel and restaurant choices. I liked the trip notes, and how everything was organized and clearly stated, even the budget. The itinerary was good, we covered a lot in a short span of time. Knowing what I know now, I would have stayed a few more days for more exploration and to truly soak it all in. The best part was our guide! I love our guide, Ghaedan N. (G for short) and driver Musa. They made our trip not just full of information and history, but full of heart, and I fell in love with the country because of their passion for it. I was very happy that we were a small group and we were all able to bond well. The history was fascinating and G made it come alive. He took care of every single person who didn't feel well, made sure to give us choices, gave advice on dealing with situations, and made sure we were all having a good time. Because there was an opportunity, he even took us to a couple of special places that highlighted how warm, welcoming and friendly the Jordanians are. I am very happy and blessed that I went to Jordan, and that I went with On the Go Tours. I will definitely check out your other trips/itineraries. One of the ladies I met on the trip said she went with On the Go a few times and have not been disappointed. I thank you, On the Go Tours Team. Keep up the good work!

    Totally Jordan ON THE GO Tours was truly Amazing. Despite the conflict in Israel, NOTHING was happening in Jordan at the time I went, so I'm grateful I didn't cancel the trip and miss this awesome experience. This was my 6th Tour with ON THE GO Tours - and again, it made me see why I keep coming back. I really love the vibe of Jordan, there's just a relaxed energy that feels good. I felt safe, welcomed and enjoyed my time here. ⭐⭐ I thought we'd be driving on dirt roads and be very bumpy - but it was freeways all the way to every destination. We had a massive Bus so we could all spread out - with charging points on board, and plenty of room. We had a group of 19 people, with 17 of that group just coming from Egypt with ON THE GO Tours. They said they loved there time there also, felt super safe, Loved the tour and never felt uneasy - despite the Israel unrest. Some tour Site highlights included the AMAZING Petra, Wadi Rum Desert and the Dead Sea. ?️⭐? Petra was beautiful - we got a fabulous weather day to see the treasury and monastery. With tourism being down in the region, it was quiet and peaceful, very rare. It is such a site to see. Not only the treasury, but also what's around, old amphitheater, rock houses, old temples, very cool to see. There is a lot of walking on this day, not complaining at all - just a heads up. To see the monastery, you can do the 1400 round trip of steps, or hire a donkey to take you one way, or both. The Monastery's size is something to be in awe of - just WOW. photos don't do it justice. I'm 6ft 3in height, and the front step was as tall as me, clearly built for Giants, lol ? in Wadi Rum, we did a desert Safari on the back of Utes out in the open. If you prefer to sit inside the car cabin, you can for sure, but to get that 360 view, best to be on the back. We did a few stops to take in the sites, but driving through the desert was a massive highlight, beautiful colours and lookouts, with nothing but sand, cliffs, rocks and mountains for miles. That night, some of us upgraded our rooms to sleep in the luxury Dome glamping tents. These tents were gorgeous, all you could need, and had a massive window opposite the bed, so at night you could stare gaze, and in the morning, see the amazing mountains and desert. ?️? The Dead Sea and the resort were brilliant to chill and relax. You don't swim here; you float on your back. The water itself almost feels oily, but in a good way. The mud is like silk when you put it on your skin. When you wash it off, I noticed blemishes were gone, my skin felt silky smooth, it was great. The resort Itself was great - HUGE, and cause tourism is down, one of the nights, after my group had gone their own ways, I ended up being the ONLY PERSON staying at the resort - it was epic. This stay saw us staying opposite Isarel, where we could clearly see Jericho and Jerusalem. During my 5 days there, I never saw any rockets, or heard conflict of any sort. I felt completely safe the entire time. Another massive Highlight was our guide "G". He was amazing. So knowledgeable, fun, easy going, approachable. Everything with him was flawless, so much wisdom and information about everything we saw, and he made it so interesting. He was sweet, kind and caring and made sure we were all enjoying ourselves. One of the best guides I've had on a tour. Really loved this tour and hope people go and visit Jordan to see all its amazing sites. Despite the Israel Unrest, Jordan is not wanting involvement and staying out of the conflict - so i urge people to go here cause it is safe. ON THE GO Tours wouldn't run tours here, or anywhere if it was unsafe - so don't cancel - book that ticket and see the amazing place Jordan is.

    I had high expectations of Jordan but this trip still managed to beat them. Petra was staggering and the night camping in Wadi Rum was great. I would strongly recommend booking this tour instead of the shorter one, as the free day at the Dead Sea is very welcome after a busy tour! All of the hotels were of a high standard, with good Wi-Fi and delicious meals. Our guide Mohamed was attentive and interesting, he made several stops that weren't on the itinerary, for example to see a historic Ottoman train in Wadi Rum. Jordanian people are so friendly and welcoming, and despite the situation in Israel I felt completely safe and looked after for the entire trip. I cannot wait to return.
