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!

An excellent tour visiting Madaba, Mt Nebo and the Dead Sea - exceeded our expectations. All tour entries were covered and driver was knowledgeable and spoke English well - note they do not accompany you through the sites. Most pleasing, and not obvious in their website overview is that lunch and swimming in the Dead Sea is at a private hotel on the Dead Sea. Lunch was a superb spread in the restaurant overlooking the Dead Sea, and change rooms and showers were good. Swimming in the Dead Sea was a fantastic experience. A great day out. Only downside is that communication with the tour group is very difficult - we did not receive notification of a change of start time of 2 hours until 15 minutes beforehand. We had actually started to book another tour through our hotel - luckily we were able to cancel this at no penalty. Emails beforehand to clarify details of the tour went unanswered.
