Mount Nebo
Mount Nebo is an elevated ridge located in Jordan, approximately 700 metres above sea level. Part of the Abarim mountain range, Mount Nebo is mentioned in the Bible as the place where Moses was granted a view of the Promised Land before his death
Wadi Rum
We proceed for a 3 hours’ drive to Wadi Rum! The valley of the moon, we arrive to the camp (and we bet you’re hungry by then) for a Bedouin specialty dinner: ZARB. What’s that you may ask? Well, it’s a mix of meat like lamb and chicken, rice, potatoes and carrots, placed in a hole in the ground, which is filled with flaming coals. The hole is then covered, and after a few hours, the meat and rice are all smoked, steamed, and grilled, all at the same time! After dinner, you can enjoy a night of stargazing since there is no light pollution in the area. Overnight in your camp in Wadi Rum

Great Jordan experience

5.00Great and fabulous experience. We enjoyed the tours so much. Wadi rum was a superb experience, the desert/bubble night was so so good. Can’t wait to do it again. Petra was very educative and I loved the guide, very informed and knowledgeable about the ruins. The desert tour and sand climb. …… I just want to scream. The sand was so cold and soft and great for the legs Overall. The tour company, guides and the rides was professional, beautiful and a wonderful experience. We would recommend and also visit again using this same tour guide and company
La. Best experience of our trip

Has a good time. 9/10 would do again

5.00This trip was right after an Egypt tour and this experience blew our minds. They had someone meet us at the airport and walked us through the arrival process. The representative met with us after the gate and walked with us through the arrival process while giving us tips for our trip. He helped us though immigration and dealt with all the paperwork, helped us with the money exchange, and introduced us to our guide at the end. It was great not having to worry about what to do next. Our guide Muhammad was respectful and we couldn't be happier with him. He showed us around and gave us as much time as we needed. He was flexible with out itinerary and allowed us to skip parts that didn't interest us. Especially the parts of the tour that felt tourist-trappy. At the end it felt like we gained a friend. The accommodations booked were central to all the exciting parts of the Amman and Petra. However, the accommodation at Amman was lacking some of the amenities that we cared about. If you just need a place to sleep before you continue on exploring then it's sufficient. In the end they took us back to the airport and the same representative made sure our process went smoothly. He even helped us cut through some of the lines. He ended the trip with a little goodie bag.

5.00By far this holiday has been an excellent experience ,recently we traveled to Amman Petra Wadi Ram Jerash and the travel agency kept in touch with us throughout our visit they ensured that we did not have any problems, infact they even immediately upgraded our hotel accommodation when we had informed that the room was too small for 3 persons They did a perfect job with the logistics, hotels and we enjoyed ourselves throughly without ant hiccups. I would definitely recommend their service to travellers interested in visiting Jordan for tourism purpose.
Great experience

Amazing Experience in Jordan

5.00Jordan is a beautiful country with a lot of highlights, and this team did our experience even better! Everything was really well organized, from the beginning to the end. We can’t think about doing something different in our trip, it was perfect! Ziad has a deeply knowledge of all the attractions and we have learned a lot from him. And also, for that ones that are searching a Portuguese tour, Ziad is the right guy. He speaks Portuguese very well and you can perfectly understand all his explanations!
