Amazing experience in Jordan and Israel - custom itinerary!
5 - Excellent
  • Kesha Kanakiya
“My mom and I booked a 4/5 day private tour of Jordan and a 1/2 day private tour of Israel with the local travel specialist. They handled all of the booking for us and were very responsive and flexible in switching out hotels, activities and timing per our request. They handled everything for us, and all we had to do was show up at the Queen Alia airport! We felt very safe throughout the whole trip - everyone was welcoming, especially in Jordan as the country’s primary economic revenue is through tourism. Our Jordan driver, Tayseer, was phenomenal and had amazing English. He even taught us some Arabic! He had wifi in the car, cold water and A/C waiting for us whenever we’d come back, and provided us with a local cell phone so we could contact him when needed. He coordinated with all of our local hotels and guides to make sure we were all set and that they’d take good care of us. We are vegetarian, and he’d call ahead to make sure the local restaurants or hotels could accommodate our diet. Tayseer also helped us out in a sticky situation where we lost a phone and he coordinated with local security and guides to help us find the phone and drove extra to get our phone back. If you’re booking a tour in Jordan, I’d highly recommend requesting to have Tayseer be your driver! He really made our journey fantastic. We stayed at the Holiday Inn at the Dead Sea and had a very relaxing time there! Their spa is small but good, so if you’re interested in a treatment, I’d recommend either calling ahead or asking the agency to help book an appointment. We did the Petra by Night experience (definitely worth it if you can arrange your itinerary) and Petra the next daytime. Basel was our guide in Petra and he taught us a lot about the Nabateans and also took great pictures of us. I’d recommend bringing about ~25 JD per person in cash if you think you might use the golf cart or horses / mules as it can get very hot in the summer post-10am. We then did a Jeep excursion in Wadi Rum with Yahya. Yahya’s English was really good, and he showed us the main highlights of the dessert. There was a natural bridge he showed us and he took me on a little impromptu scaling / climbing adventure to get to the top! Super cool experience. You could also tell he genuinely cared for the people of the desert and animals around him - when he was showing us the way the Nabateans collected water, he noticed someone had left a mule tied to a shrub in the heat and brought water from his Jeep for the animal. Truly, he had a pure heart. Please request him if you’re booking a Jeep tour in Wadi Rum. We then continued to Jericho, Bethlehem, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv/Jaffa from the land crossing. We had a great time seeing all of the holy sites - definitely worth the trip. Make sure you negotiate well if you shop from the markets - even for food! There was a juice place that first quoted us 25 Shekels and then eventually said 15. But anyways, had a great time! Thank you so much travel expert.”
Fell in Love with Jordan, People, Food, and the Sights

  • Michael Meyer
“An excellent tour of Jordan's most important sights (and sites). Petra was an incredible experience as was the visit to Wadi Rum and the Roman ruins at Jerash. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and knew how to run a tour. It was the right mix of tour time and personal time for exploring on your own. Overall, this was one of the best tours I have taken (and I have done a lot). The people of Jordan are very accommodating and a pleasure to talk to, which they like to do a lot. I found the historical background of Jordan and the current political and economic characteristics of the Kingdom to be fascinating. HOt air balloon ride in Wadi Rum is optional...but well worth it. Highly recommend the tour.”
Superb and challenging

“The Data to Petra trek is challenging and rewards the hard work with awesome views, and spectacular sights of Petra at the end of it. On my trip, our group barely saw another person over the first four days, so it was serene and took me away from any hustle and bustle of everyday life.”

Israel & Jordan - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

Traveling to Israel Vs Jordan : An Overview

Planning a tour to Israel and Jordan? Here's an overview of the transportation options and highlights to help you make informed choices.

Getting from Israel to Jordan

Travelers have several transportation options when getting from Israel to Jordan and vice versa, but the most convenient and popular way is by land, through the border crossings between the two countries.

The Allenby (or King Hussein) Bridge serves as the primary land border crossing, connecting Israel's West Bank with Jordan. Travelers can easily access this vital link by taking buses or taxis from cities like Jerusalem or Tel Aviv in Israel. Depending on the starting point, the journey typically lasts between 1 to 2 hours. Upon reaching the border, travelers are required to complete customs and immigration procedures on both sides.

The Yitzhak Border Terminal in Eilat, Israel, offers another convenient land route, connecting to the Aqaba Border Crossing in Jordan. Particularly beneficial for travelers heading to the southern parts of Jordan or those eager to explore the Red Sea region, this route is a practical and accessible way to cross the border.

For travelers looking for quick travel between Israel and Jordan, direct flights are available between Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv and Queen Alia International Airport in Amman. With a flight duration of approximately 1 hour, this is a swift and time-effective option for those with limited schedules. Several operators also offer guided tours that include transportation between Israel and Jordan, making it a hassle-free option for travelers who want a comprehensive experience.

Best time to visit Israel and Jordan

You can’t go wrong planning a trip to Jordan and Israel during the spring (March to May) or fall (September to November) seasons, when the weather is most comfortable. Springtime also brings blooming flowers along with the mild temperatures, making it an excellent period to explore Jordan's renowned archaeological sites and the mesmerizing desert vistas of Wadi Rum. The summer months from June to September are also a good choice for visiting Israel when the weather is warm and perfect for beach excursions along the Mediterranean coast or immersing yourself in the vibrant culture of cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

For a more seasonal overview, check out our guide on the best time to visit Jordan and Israel.
