Jordan Cultural, religious and historic sites Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Cultural, religious and historic sites Jordan tours
Hazel | Traveled in January
Jordan did not disappoint. Having two full days in Petra allowed good exploration. This included a visit to little Petra. Make sure you go to the Monastery. It’s well worth all the steps. A night in Wadi Rum was enjoyable. Cold in December but plenty of blankets. No one had to use the communal tent. We were the only group at the camp. This may not always be the case. The optional camel ride is fun and I’d recommend it. The jeep rides are bumpy but again good fun and the only way to take in the vast scenery. Make sure you embrace the mud at the Dead Sea. The hotels were all very good. Buffet breakfasts. Food at Wadi Rum was particularly good. Restaurant meals for dinner were about 15 dinar (including drinks). Food good and plentiful. The bus was a little cramped for 15 of us but the driver was excellent and very safe. The guide was very good and passionate about his country. He knows everyone. Jordan felt very safe. An Explore representative meets you in the airport and takes you through immigration. We were lucky with good weather. Sunny and dry all week. Good group of people to share this experience with. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Jordan is a gem! The best destination I've ever been to and I have travelled a lot! A magical adventure! Biblical landscapes, iconic sights, great company, and a perfect pace. Jordan is very safe; the people are warm, and the infrastructure is excellent. I was sad to leave!
John M. | Traveled in December
Jordan is a fantastic location. Strongly recommended for the variety of cultural and historical visits, the fabulous scenery and the range of interesting and unique activities. The Roman town of Jerash was the highlight, closely followed by Petra. Our local guide, Saleh, was so very knowledgeable and friendly. We felt completely safe. We covered so much in our week. Excellent value.
Mark | Traveled in December
A wonderful itinerary seeing much of what Jordan has to offer…Roman ruins, Petra, the Dead Sea. Many fantastic experiences…snorkelling in Red Sea, camping in desert and seeing the stars, camel ride, walking up to the monastery in Petra. The food was fabulous, an unexpected highlight. Very highly recommended.
