Jordan City sightseeing Trips

Everything went well. The tour leader, Abdallah was friendly, with an excellent sense of humour, and the tour itself never had a dull moment. But the highlights, for me at least, would be: The Deir ‘Alla inscriptions at the Amman Citadel Madaba Mt Nebo Wadi Rum The Red Sea

I went on the Explore Jordan discovery trip with my mum and travelled with 11 other travellers making it a total of 13. We had Abdullah as our tour guide who was excellent and catered to all our needs throughout the trip. I was unfortunately ill during the middle of the trip but Abdullah made sure to help me with getting to a pharmacy when I needed to. The locations were all amazing - the highlights for me being Wadi Rum and seeing the sunset in the desert at a location picked by Abdullah. It definitely felt like being on another planet! Jordan is definitely safe to visit and I would encourage others to go as it was evident from the big fall in tourist numbers especially in key areas such as Petra. Jordan has such a variety to offer from ancient ruins to the desert and the sea - if any of these take your interest go book your trip to Jordan now!

Our excellent leader, Saleh, was really knowledgeable, organised, kind and considerate, as well as having a great sense of humour. The itinerary was so varied, some wonderful ancient sites including Jerash and Petra, then exploring Wadi Rum and an overnight stay in the desert. I'd recommend the boat trip and snorkelling in the Red Sea, it was amazing. Then floating in the Dead Sea before our return trip to Amman. The trip totally exceeded my expectations and not once did I feel unsafe. All the staff were friendly and helpful and our accommodation excellent. To top it all, I was lucky enough to share this trip with an amazing bunch of people. I'd 100% recommend Jordan and in particular, this adventure.

We had a wonderful holiday. Lots of great activities, from desert excursions to snorkelling in the Red Sea and camel riding. Everything was arranged perfectly, with the option to join the activities, or relax as you wish. I thoroughly recommend Jordan - a beautiful, safe and friendly country.

Jordan was epic — and completely safe. Now is the time to travel - there are very few tourists and the country needs our support. I can’t fault the itinerary, and it was the only one I could find with two full days in Petra — absolute winner! Because of the timing, we were the first group to only have Petra by Night as our introduction, and I’d totally recommend it. After being mesmerised by the Treasury, my personal favourites were Aqaba (shopping heaven) and the Dead Sea — it was great to temporarily shed a few years and feel youthful again. If I could tweak anything, I’d swap the return to Amman for a night at the Dead Sea. Our guide Abdallah was amazing — a pleasure to learn from his knowledge and passion. Tips for travellers: You don’t need a Jordan Pass. If you’re Australian, expect to be surrounded by Brits — embrace it and enjoy the banter. There’s an option to donate clothes at the end, which is a great touch. A good level of fitness is needed to really enjoy the ruins and natural landscapes.

I went to Jordan because my husband wanted to see Petra, but the country had so much more. The people, the culture and the history from over 9000 years before. Our guide was excellent, thank you Mo. You were kind, made history accessible without overwhelming us with information. Well worth arriving a couple of days before to get a feel for Amman and the people. and R&R at the end at Aqaba and Dead Sea was most welcome(safest snorkelling trip we have been on)
