5.00I was completely satisfied with the self-guided tours and with my transportation expert for the day. The experience was safe and pleasant with zero rushing. I took my time at each stop and lingered leisurely to explore at my own pace. I would definitely repeat the experience!
Excellent trip with Omar

5.00Omar was a kind & helpful gentleman, he communicated well before the trip. He was a careful driver & knew the best places for photographs. We were dropped off outside all the sites & given clear instructions. We definitely recommend taking this tour, especially with Omar thank you for a great day Sarah & Rob

5.00The sites were as described. The only disappointment was the Baptism Site was unexpectedly closed. Ashram, my driver, was extremely apologetic, even though not his fault. He offered to take me to a few other local sites in Amman to make up for my disappointment. I do feel the price is a bit much since no entrance fees are included and once at the sites, you are on your own, no guide. I was very pleasantly surprised to have a clean, pleasant smelling car…no residual smoke smell, as most vehicles in Amman have. Ashram was an excellent driver with extensive local knowledge.

5.00It was a beautiful and historical route. Our driver was an extraordinary man—friendly and attentive. The three of us (my wife, my child, and I) discussed many topics with him, ranging from history to everyday life. He is an excellent English speaker with the deep knowledge of a professional tour guide.
