What makes this tour special is the local insight and personal touch. I’m a licensed guide from Petra, and I focus on sharing real stories, culture, and hidden details, not just basic facts. The tour includes hotel pickup (or easy meeting at the Visitor Center next to the ATM) and covers all major highlights in 3 hours. After the tour, you’ll have free time to explore Petra at your own pace.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience in Petra thanks to our Hashem. He was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely caring from start to finish. He helped us a lot, explained everything clearly, and made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. His knowledge of Petra, its history, and the best spots made the visit even more special. He also went out of his way to help us with directions, photos, and practical tips, which we truly appreciated. What stood out the most was how friendly and respectful he was—it felt like being shown around by a friend rather than just a guide. If you are visiting Petra and want a stress-free, memorable experience, I highly recommend him. Thank you for making our visit unforgettable!

Hashem was fluent in English and was extremely friendly with our kids . He explained details and stopped at almost every stop in the pink marvelous city . He also took us to the spot where everyone takes pictures near the treasury and helped take pictures for us (although it’s not part of the tour) . Our kids liked the tour a lot , they were thrilled . But unfortunately they were tired from Aqaba earlier that day , so we did two hours instead of three , we could not go further than the theater after the treasury . Highly recommend
Wonderful visit to Wonder of the world

I had the best time experiencing Petra. My guide Rashed Amra AL Nawafleh was excellent in guiding me and leadimg me the way to Petra. He is eloquent and proficient in English, knowledgeable of history of the place and ensures I am safe and comfortable as we walked along. He was even assisting me at taking pictures and videos and pointed out strategic spots for instagrammable take. He always asks me how I feel or any questions I could possibly ask. He is the right guide I needed for the day. Remember this was my first visit to Petra, let alone Jordan. So far, I feel great wishing I had more time to explore. Rashed encourages me to try Camel ride, mule ride, which I did, and all my rides were excellent. I enjoyed every moment of it. I was led to a Bedouin camp (store) past the Treasury which gave me the opportunity to rest and chitchat with the store owner, learning the crafts how they're made, how they survived drought season of tourism and how glad they receive tourists. I admired the Roman ruins leading to another road towards the second gate. Based on my entire experience, I am more committed to say I am coming back with more friends from Asia and Canada and more days to explore Petra and all of Jordan. I need to experience more tours here in Petra, especially at night and other trails. The tour is affordable and Viator never fails me so far. This tour is highly recommendable especially with a great guide, as excellent and professional as this man named Rashed. This in fact is a wonderful experience to treasure with.

Big success doesn’t happen as fast as it seems to the outside world, it happens through ongoing dedication. This is Hashem & the team ,the trusted tour guides & driver you ever can get in Jordan . Hashem was highly dedicated great for our main Petra trail . Sharing his knowledge & also an excellent organizer, ensuring our needs were met . Mr Mo’ment took over the Little Petra trail & Monastery, walked tirelessly with us , ensuring we don’t jumped of the cliff 🤣. Sharing his knowledge , friendly , approachable & professional. Mr Atef our lovely Habibi look after us like a family members, making sure that we are safe & protected all the time . We highly recommended him as your driver & the whole team as your tour guides if or when you ever visit Jordan to have a pain free well planned experiences & relaxing holiday without any worries 😊 Name it and it shall be given 😃

Petra is an amazing destination but can get overwhelming if you aren’t with the right guide. So grateful that we had Hashem. With his perfect English and calm demeanor, he takes his time to explain things so well. You can be assured he will never upsell you and keeps things at your pace. He is extremely helpful and patient and would highly recommend him anyday when in Petra. Thanks Hashem.
Amazing tour guide!

Highly recommend Hashem! My friend and I felt really lucky to have him as our guide in Petra. He is professional, knowledgeable, and patient. He gave us advice and took really great photos of us. We ended up walking to the main sites and then taking the golf cart on the way back. It was a magical day. Make sure to also do Petra by night!
