★★★★★★★★★★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.

“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!”

There is Bedouin tea at nearly every stop. You can even try sandboarding (or sledding with a sandboard) at one of the later stops. I had a morning tour with lunch, which was at a restaurant in the village. The portion sizes are big. The tour went as planned, even though it was just me during low season.”
