3.Petra & Wadi Rum Private or group Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 750 reviews · 14 hours · from $126

Leave Amman early for Petra and Wadi Rum, two of Jordan’s great sights. Your English-speaking driver, often Mahmoud, Zeyad, Fox, or Khalil, handles the long road and timing. Spend about three hours at Petra, then take a two-hour 4x4 ride through Wadi Rum if selected. A local Petra guide is not included.

“Mahmoud, our driver, is not only a well-mannered and trustworthy professional, but he also creates a friendly atmosphere among group members. He treated us with respect and kindness. It is worth mentioning that Mahmoud speaks English fluently, drives carefully, has a neat and clean new minivan, and is reachable via WhatsApp. P.S. DO NOT MISS THE JEEP TOUR IN WADI RUM!”

The rock formations were stunning and the carvings were amazing. Afterwards we drove to Wadi Rum where we did the truck tour. Our guide there was informative and fun. It’s quite a ride for us older tourists but we felt safe and enjoyed the views. This tour makes for a long day but our driver, Ilbrahem stopped each way at a store, restaurant so we could stretch and get a snack. Good day!”
