        Itinerary
        • 1
          Leave Amman for your approximate one hour drive to Jerash. Travel north in your air-conditioned vehicle and absorb the views over the passing towns and desert landscapes. Then, on arrival in Jerash, head into this archaeological jewel through the ancient city gate. Jerash founded by Alexander the Great in the 2nd century AD and known as Gerasa, this provincial city was one of the wealthiest in the Roman Empire. Stroll around as your guide ( If Hired ) tells you fascinating stories about the city in its heyday. See its arches, theatres and magnificent collonaded street, and take photos of the Oval Plaza, an intriguing oval-shaped forum, as you conjure up images of the people who once lived here. After your walking tour finishes, return to your vehicle and travel back to Amman. Your excursion ends with a hotel drop-off in the afternoon.

          My Petra & Wadi Rum Solo Trip
          I had such a wonderful day today! I am a female, solo traveling and I am extremely grateful to have an amazing driver Bardaghawi, for making me feel comfortable the whole trip. Love that he'd stop places just for me to have good look and have beautiful pictures. He did take my pictures most of the time and it was very nice! Super satisfied! He surely knows how things work. Bardaghawi was cool, very knowledgeable, and informative. He definitely explained some interesting things. If you don't have much time in Jordan, I highly recommend this day trip to see the beautiful Petra and Wadi Rum for a day. Trust me, it's worth it! Can't wait to go back. Thank you, Bardaghawi.

          Excellent service and great tour guide/driver
          We had an amazing experience with Hussan as our driver and tour guide. From the moment he picked us up, he was professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable about the area. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the journey and provided great insights about the places we visited. Hussan's driving was safe and smooth, and he always went the extra mile to ensure we had the best experience and let us took nice pictures along the way. His friendly nature and attention to detail made our trip even more enjoyable by checking on us if we need more water and toilet breaks. If you're looking for a reliable driver and a fantastic guide, Hussan is the perfect choice. Thank you, Hussan, for making our trip so memorable!

          Wonderful to Petra!
          It was very nice to visit Petra, Jordan. First of all, we enjoyed the drive from Amman to Petra with the driver Hassan al-khateb. He was very helpful with information. We thank him and H&R for providing us with the tour.

          Great tour!
          This tour was an amazing experience! Amman’s rich history, the breathtaking views from Mt. Nebo, and the stunning mosaics of Madaba made for an unforgettable day. Everything was well-organized, and we had plenty of time to explore each location. A special mention to our driver, Bardaghawi, who made the trip even more enjoyable. He was professional, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to ensure we had a comfortable and smooth journey. His insights and friendly demeanor truly enhanced the experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jordan!

          A*** service by Mohammed Ali!
          Mohamed Ali, was our driver chosen for us via our booking made on ‘GetYourGuide’ for the ‘Petra Full-Day Private Tour’ from Amman. We could not have been more pleased with Mohamed Ali, who reached out to us the day before to confirm our booking and to also make enquiries regards any additional activities that we might have been interested in - due to our tight deadline, we declined as we had dinner reservations back in Amman; which we didn’t miss due to Mohammed Ali’s brilliant navigation through Amman during the last 30mins of Ramadan (If you have experienced it you know what I mean). Mohamed Ali’s local knowledge of Amman was very insightful, reinforced also of his broader knowledge of Jordan and the tours he offered- I have kept his number for this very reason as we are likely to return! A great experience, comfortable car, insightful conversations on route to Amman. We couldn’t ask for me. Thank you! (We hope your hand is better now!)

          I only had one day in Jordan and I'm glad I chose this trip.
          What an unforgettable day. Visiting two incredible sites and coming away with a desire to visit again, it feels like I've barely scratched the surface of this beautiful country. Thank you to Mohammed Ali for being such an accommodating, friendly driver and guide, he made the long drives between Amman, Petra, and Wadi Rum both comfortable and enjoyable.

          Day trip to Dead Sea and jerash.
          I had this tour with Mohammed Ali. The Dead Sea was truly a once in a lifetime experience and I totally recommend it! I went to the crown plaza hotel, which had great food, a nice pool, and an option to get a free mud bath after the Dead Sea. Jerash was An amazing city with lots of history! During my stay at the Dead Sea, my phone was set to Israel time and I was not aware that I was running 45 minutes late, but Mohammed was very understanding with the situation. The day before this tour, I went to wadi rum and Petra with him. I had such a great time with him that I cancelled a reservation with another company to do another day tour with him! He speaks very good English and made me feel safe and welcome. He is very funny and was great company during my solo travel here in Jordan. He also supplied water and was able to charge my phone in the car. If you have the option, book with Mohammed Ali!

          Perfect journey in Jordan
          We had an amazing private tour in Jordan with our guide - Bardaghawi! From Amman, we traveled to Petra and Wadi Rum, and the entire experience was fantastic. Our guide was excellent—very knowledgeable, shared a lot of interesting stories, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. The transportation was smooth and fast, and we had plenty of time to explore and enjoy the breathtaking views. The activities were well-organized and exciting, making the whole day truly unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Jordan!

        Wonderful day exploring Jerash. Hussam our guide was punctual, knowlegeable, friendly and professional. He was the perfect guide to take us to Jerash from Amman and treated us to Turkish coffee on the way. Would highly recommend him - ask for him directly, you won’t be disappointed.

        I arrived in Jordan the evening before this tour with Adnan Hamdan. He kept me informed via WhatsApp on the day I arrived that he will be waiting for me outside the lobby.

        Upon greeting Adnan, I received a warm welcome to Jordan and he maintained a smile and great conversation the entire journey to Jerash. His knowledge of Jordan is extremely valuable and offered great insight into its history.

        Very personable and an all round great tour.
