What an amazing experience...I did not know what to expect from Jordan, but have been pleasantly surprised by the warmth and hospitality of the Jordanian people. Our guide, Kamel made our trip worthwhile. He tended to every detail and we did not have to worry about anything, especially with the COVID-19 testing. Jordan is very safe and welcoming to Americans. I cannot thank Bridge Travel and our guide Kamel, enough for making this a trip of a lifetime. Do not hesitate to come to Jordan. You will not regret it.

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 .

Jordan can be regarded as a typical Arab country as its people are very warm, friendly and hospitable. Jordanians are typically happy to forgive foreigners who break the rules of etiquette, however, visitors seen to be making an effort to observe local customs will undoubtedly win favour. Joining local people for a cup of tea or coffee can be a wonderful way to learn more about local culture. If you are invited, yet are unable to attend, then it is perfectly acceptable to decline. Place your right hand over your heart and politely make your excuses.

We toured Petra and Wadi Rum on a private 1 day tour for 4 people with Why Jordan Tours in March 2020. The tour was arranged through Desert Eco Tours in Eilat. I cannot say enough great things about everyone associated with our tour. First of all we were encouraged by the Israeli side to get to the border crossing as early as possible to allow for as much time as possible in Jordan. Excellent advice, as we had plenty of time to see and do everything you could possibly pack into a 1 day trip. We were met on the Jordan side of the border crossing by personnel from Why Jordan Tours who made the crossing fast and easy. Since we were traveling at the start of the Corona Virus outbreak this was no small feat. We then met our fabulous guide, Abdulkareem Helalat, and very professional and friendly driver, Mohammad Althnibat, and began ur journey to Petra. Our vehicle was very comfortable and Mohammad is a skilled and careful driver and we always felt very secure. Kareem grew up in Wadi Musa and was able to provide us both the history of Jordan in general and the Petra area in particular as well as interesting information about daily life in that area. We immediately hit it off when he offered us some yummy sweet pastries his wife had baked that morning. Mr. Kareem made us feel as if we were not just clients but his special guests for the day. He was very informative about both the archaeology and the geology we viewed and was very understanding when we had to take short breaks along our hike into and around Petra. While I am sure we saw all the things most tourists see in a 1 day trip to Petra, I feel confident that we saw much more and got much more “inside info” about what we were seeing than the usual tour. Petra is truly amazing. The idea that this spot was a hidden gem for 2 centuries is unbelievable. I would encourage everyone to take the hike in to Petra because there is so much to see and so much information about the people that created Petra that can best be understood on the way in with an excellent guide, like Kareem. There is so much to see in Petra that a single day really is not enough, but that is all the time we had allotted. I am sure in more normal times Petra is filled with tourists. However, we were able to enjoy Petra with relatively small crowds. After touring Petra we had a great lunch in Wadi Musa. The food was both tasty and filling and we enjoyed Kareem’s company at lunch. While there was 1 other tour group there, the rest of the guests appeared to be local people out for a nice lunch. Definitely not the usual “tour lunch” . After lunch we proceeded back towards Wadi Rum. Wow! Wadi Rum is an example of the stark beauty that makes the desert so stunning. If you want to see what Mars is like there is no need to travel to the red planet, just go to Wadi Rum for a Jeep tour into the heart of the desert. We got on the back of a 4wheel drive pickup and took off across the desert floor. We parked the truck and picked a nice spot to watch the sun set in front of us and the moon rise behind us. Since it was a full moon the sight could not have been more spectacular. We all credit Mr. Kareem with providing us with an excellent tour and to leave us feeling both cared for and cared about.
