Walking Jordan's Spice Trails

Great tour. Very safe and friendly people. Interesting but not challenging.

An exceptional experience. Each day brought new wonders, every stop on our itinerary proving fascinating. Tour leader Saleh was one of the best guides I have ever met, bringing fresh appreciation to all that we did. A trip not to be missed - and one that I would gladly repeat. Highly recommended.

The Spice Trails trip was fantastic! The itinerary was pretty packed but very well managed and organised. Our guide Saleh was brilliant and his knowledge of Jordan was first rate. Despite troubles in neighbouring countries, Jordan felt very safe and the people welcoming. Walking through the sand in the desert was hard work at times but the sights we saw were amazing. I was very grateful for my lightweight Kantju gaiters from Alpkit, great for keeping the sand out of my boots! The highlight of the trip for me was the day we walked from our camp near Little Petra to the Monastery, explored Petra and returned via the Wadi Alturkmanyah paths - such stunning and remote landscape.

An outstanding trip enhanced in great part by our tour leader Saleh, whose knowledge of history, culture and nature was fantastic. Jordan is an amazing country with very friendly people. We felt very safe, even though we were travelling in difficult times for the region. Jordan is an oasis of peace.
