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!

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!

Booked a transfer last December 2019 with this company and they were able to provide us transfer even on a short time notice. We travelled with kids (8 & 5) ,they provide car seat with additional charges, the van was clean and comfortable. Driver was patiently waiting us after the immigration at the border and was friendly especially to our kids. If you are looking for a hassle -free and comfortable transfer from the border to the city, they are definitely the company where to book to.

We arrived March 5. We met our guide Mustafa Orabi who would escort us on the tour. We were amazed at the historical splendors of Jordan. Mustafa is so knowledgeable that along with all the sites, we got to enjoy the actual Jordan. We were at the best places and got to enjoy the sites and activities without any stress. We are leaving with great memories of a beautiful country. We highly recommended this tour of Jordan!
