Things to do in Jordan, Jordan: The Best Tours

February 15, 2022 Jeremy Dunfee

Jordan (/ˈdʒɔːrdən/; Arabic: الْأُرْدُنّ‎ Al-‘Urdunn [al.ʔur.dunn]), officially The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (Arabic: المملكة الأردنية الهاشمية‎ Al-Mamlakah Al-Urdunnīyah Al-Hāshimīyah), is a sovereign Arab state in western Asia, on the East Bank of the Jordan River. Jordan is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the south, Iraq to the north-east, Syria to the north, Israel and Palestine to the west. The Dead Sea lies along its western borders and the country has a small shoreline on the Red Sea in its extreme south-west, but is otherwise landlocked. Jordan is strategically located at the crossroads of Asia, Africa and Europe. The capital, Amman, is Jordan's most populous city as well as the country's economic, political and cultural centre.

Muhammed was a very qualified driver with good english skills. He picked me up promptly at the hotel (even rung the hostel to know he was arriving soon), took me to get coffee at the start of the trip and were very open to let me have my time, and get snacks etc. Would definitely recommend the trip and driver to anyone else! Thank you!

We had the best time in Jordan! Our guide and driver, Sufian was fantastic and the trip was well organized and very safe. Although there was a bit of driving involved, we had WiFi in the car and were always very well taken care of. Thank you for a lovely trip to Wadi Rum, Petra and the Dead Sea!

I never take the time to write a review because I am never really impressed. Jordan Private Tours changed my mind! I was blown away by their flexibility to change things and their quick response, not to mention they allowed us to customize our private tour and their friendliness! My husband and I travelled to Jordan in late April 2021 and had Ja’far Iskek as our guide and driver throughout our visit. We visited Amman, Jarash, Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea. Throughout, Ja'far provided great insight into the history of the areas and took care of us. He also provided cold water bottles in the car and not to mention WIFI in the car as well. Visiting Joran was definitely a trip of a lifetime! We will cherish our memories forever! Thank you so much for the hospitality. I highly recommend Jordan Private Tours and Ja'far Iskek! Thanks!

It’s really a unforgettable experience. Emad picked up me from my hotel . He is a very good guide . He knows the city inside out . Cause he had been doing this for a long time . He gave me a quick briefing about the tour . He told me I can spend as long as I like if I am interested in some places . To void crowds we should visit the mosque first. Nobody was there when we arrived . So the mosque opened the door just for me . What a VIP treat . After the mosque we went to citadel. I loaned to stay there for 45 minutes . After I stepped in , there was a magic in the air. I instant fall in this place . The view is spectacular , 360 degrees panorama view of Amman city . The ruined monuments and the temple, also the museum just kept me going for ever. When I realized my next appointment was coming . I have stayed there by myself almost 2.5 hours . Emad was patiently waiting for me outside . When I ready to leave , he was there already to pick me up . Due to the timing , he suggested me servers new plans . They are all sounds very interesting . If I have time I will contact him and let him to show me all the best places in Amman . I really enjoyed this trip ....

Recently we visited Jordan and decided to head south at the Wadi Rum desert. The scenery was amazing from the photos and the three of us wanted to have a 100% desert experience. There are tons of camps at the place so it was really hard to decide. We sent many emails and got some answers. The one that got our attention was the mail from Wadi Rum Bedouin Guide. Polite and friendly, exactly what we were looking for. When we arrived Feras welcomed us, it was like a lost friend and drove us to the desert camp. Unfortunately we could not have a jeep tour,as we told them prior to our arrival, however he has a warm heart and took us for a walk near the camp and showed us the "road" to the sites and explained us a lot about the bedouin culture. All that, as a friend, never asked for anything extra. All in all Feras and his colleagues are well trusted and won our hearts from the very begging. Food was awesome the communal area and all the WCs clean and the tents were exactly as we expected.

Enjoy a whole day in the awesome desert where everything is allowed: climb on every rock you see, dance and jump around like no one is watching (because it's true), roll down from the big sand dunes, hunt sand storms, pet the camels, learn how to tie your scarf Bedouin-style, go offroad in the jeep, sit down in the shade and help Ahmed make his famous lunch, sing songs in caves, drink from fresh springs, watch rock drawings, have tea with Bedouins and listen to their songs. And after one whole day of this, relax in our comfortable tents and join us for a good home cooked meal. In the evening we relax around the campfire, watch the Milky Way and tell Bedouin stories. You will sleep like rock. The next morning after all this awesomeness you will think: 'Did we do all of this in one day?' Luckily you still have the photo's!

Inclusions: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Overnight stay in bedouin camp

2019 SEP, I took part in a 2-day/night Wadi Rum tour arranged by Zain Tours and left unforgettable memories. I was a solo traveler, before I went to Wadi Rum, I was a bit worried and anxious about the uncertainty on the trip. Thanks to Zain Tours for the careful arrangement that made me feel at ease and had a perfect journey. The magnificent view from the top of Jabal Umm ad Dami, the spectacular sunset/sunrise view, and the incredible scenery are the memories of Wadi Rum I tried to capture with photos. However, there are still some hard-to-be record moments that also moved me. That was an exceptional plan arranged by Salem and Ahmad's family. Visiting some traditional tents, which perfectly expressed the hospitality of the Bedouin. When sketching the desert landscape under the shadow of the rock, my heart merged with peace and unprecedented harmony. Sleeping under the starry sky made me reluctant to close my eyes and fall asleep. By sharing many teatimes and night chats with Salem and Ahmad’s family, I was introduced to the Bedouin’s sense of belonging to the family, even though I don’t know anything about the Arabic language. Bedouin's attitude towards life, a simple and optimistic lifestyle, and be respectful to nature is what I admire. Under the sunshine in Wadi Rum, you might even believe that every camel here is smiling because of being well taken care of; therefore they're much happier and smarter. Bedouin and Wadi Rum are worth visiting and get to know. Be recommended to visit Wadi Rum with an open and respectful mind, and your bright and joyful heart would come along on the journey in return.
