5.00The driver picked us up on time and was very courteous and kind. We had not planned a driver for the rest of our journey and he personally arranged it for us. Thanks goodness he asked us our travel arrangements! The driver parked the car and walked us into Petra so we could meet up with our tour guide. I'm so glad we booked a tour guide! He was so kind and knowledgable. We would have walked past so many important artifacts without his guidance. He also helped us take the best pictures. Lunch is included and it was a nice respite from the walking. Then we continued up to the Monastery which was kind of a hike. About half way through, we took a break and sat with his welcoming friends who made us tea while we admired the view. Once we reached the top, we had a nice little break and then he helped us down the slippery parts of the path and back to the center where our driver was waiting for us to take us to our hotel. I highly recommend this driver and tour guide. We could not have been more pleased. Thank you for an amazing trip that we will always remember!

5.00It is a briliient and wonderful tour, I highly recommand it. The programme is planned very well and it covered quite a few great sites. And the guider is very nice. The only small setback is that the little bus is not very much comfortable....although it is ok.
