My friend and I had a fantastic time on our trip. We were met by someone who helped us get the necessary paperwork, traveled to Wadi rum (we slept), stopped at a nice shop where we purchased beautiful scarves, and departed with our Wadi Rum local guide! Our guide was awesome, know all of the best spots to visit and photo spots as well! He was kind and attentive as I got sick at the beginning of our journey. We enjoyed staying at Sun Camp - the staff was so kind to us and generous in their efforts. We were fasting and they prepared food for us that night so we wouldn't be hungry. Our driver drove us to Petra (we slept), checked in to the hotel, and thoroughly enjoyed our guide who was also a local! We definitely benefited from his knowledge and connections! We enjoyed dinner in a cave and the following day our driver made arrangements for us to add an additional stop (for a cost). We were blessed to visit Jesus' baptism site before enjoying the amazing Dead Sea!
I rarely write reviews, but my experience deserves recognition. I traveled with a small group of friends, and what impressed us most was the agency’s flexibility and professionalism. We started from Jerusalem and crossed the Allenby Bridge, where JHT’s representative helped us through what could have been a confusing process. From there, everything was smooth sailing. In Madaba and Mount Nebo, we had time to reflect on the biblical history, while our guide shared both historical facts and heartfelt local stories. When we reached Petra, I was blown away—not only by the site itself, but also by the way our guide balanced exploration with rest. He suggested shaded routes, provided cold water, and even pointed out photo opportunities that gave us memories for life. Wadi Rum was another highlight: we had a thrilling 4x4 jeep ride across the desert, followed by a quiet evening of stargazing. The camp was clean and comfortable, with warm Jordanian hospitality. What I appreciated most was the balance between adventure and comfort, history and relaxation. The travel operator understood our needs better than we did ourselves, and that’s the mark of a truly professional travel company.
