Did the Amman to Petra & Wadi Rum trip with my sister, and honestly, it was EPIC. Our driver (Basim) was suuuper chill, told us random facts about camels and old kings, and even stopped at this tiny bakery so we could try fresh bread. The van was clean, AC worked (thank god), and we never felt rushed. Petra itself—wow. Just wow. Bring extra snacks, tho, bc the food stalls were $$$. Highly recommend booking with these guys, especially if you like a bit of banter along the way.

Took the day trip with my partner. Guide was very knowledgeable, but the car felt a bit cramped for the long ride. Petra is just as stunning as you expect but def wear comfy shoes—lots of walking. Our driver shared some good local food spots (the falafel stop was LEGIT). Wish we’d had more time in Wadi Rum, but overall a memorable day. Would go again, maybe just request a bigger car next time!

Group of friends, did Petra + Wadi Rum. The sites are worth every bit of hype, but ngl, the early start was rough. Guide was patient with us (even when we were late lol). Car was clean, AC strong. Petra was packed but the guide knew shortcuts to quieter spots. Lunch was included, not bad but nothing special. Would recommend, just prepare for a looong day.

Went solo and was a little nervous, but the driver, Khalid, immediately put me at ease. He explained cultural things I’d never have known and even helped me buy a SIM card at a random shop. Petra is as magical as you’ve heard (the walk in is LONG tho, so pace yourself). Wadi Rum was HOT but gorgeous—bring a hat! Would give 6 stars if I could.

Amazing trip!! Went with my two teen kids, both loved it (shocking). Our driver Bassam told us loads about the history, and we stopped for Turkish coffee halfway. Petra was a dream, but beware—it’s a LOT of walking and can get windy. Bring layers. Wadi Rum at sunset was the highlight for us, camel ride was hilarious. Would totally do again.
