This was such a good way to see Petra. Starting at Little Petra and approaching the Monastery from the back allowed me to see everything without backtracking and allowed me to get to the Monastery before the crowds. And Abdullah was such a good guide; he explained the history of the park, the region, each of the major sites, and the Beduin culture.

This was the perfect way to experience Petra! Abdullah knows a lot of the local history and the modern scholarship. My trip felt like I was taking it with a friend.

I did this tour with my mom, and Abdullah was an excellent guide! Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. It’s a long day with hiking involved so come prepared with sturdy shoes, water, a hat and some energy bars etc. Highly recommended! Thank you Abdullah!

If you want to really “visit” and “see” Petra, you cannot miss the tour with Abdullah. Abdullah is a local Bedouin guide who grew up inside Petra and he knows everything about this land. I listened to so many stories and learned so much from him about the culture, history of Bedouin and Petra. He knows all the best routes to avoid crowds but also will take you to see those hidden spots that no one else knows. Abdullah even took great pictures for me. As a solo traveller this is such a highlight. He can help you literally with everything you can possibly think of. Most importantly, he truly cares and loves this land and wants to share his culture with everyone. The only regret I have after meeting Abdullah is that I only stay one day in Petra. If I had known him I would definitely buy 2 day pass in Petra and book with him more tours apart from the Petra walking tours. Highly recommend

We went to the Petra visitor’s center at 7:30am as stated in the description of this Viator ticket. My friend and I waited until 7:40am and tried to contact the guide. As you can see in the pictures with the time stamp, the message saying that the driver will be there in 10 min, came at 8:18am. We decided to leave at 8:20am since the extreme tardiness and the fact that a guide in a popular destination did not have WhatsApp seemed off. Contrary to what they had said earlier, they reached out to me hours later at 2pm on WhatsApp asking if I was still in Petra and that they live in the Bedouin village. I am currently waiting for a refund since this all feels like a scam and I never received this tour.
