A bit of advice, ensure you have cash on you. Not everywhere accepts card. Also have some insect repellent for the campsite.”

See Petra and Wadi Rum from Amman in one long, well-organized day, with hotel pickup, a desert Jeep ride, and time for local culture.

“This 14-hour tour was an absolutely unforgettable experience and worth every moment. Jordan is a stunning country, and this day truly showed its beauty at its best. Petra was a dream come true. Walking through the Siq and standing in front of the Treasury was breathtaking and emotional — something I had wanted to see for a long time. The archaeological sites, rock-cut tombs, and overall atmosphere made Petra feel magical and timeless. Wadi Rum was equally impressive, with its vast desert landscapes, dramatic rock formations, and incredible colors. The jeep tour was fun and well organized, offering amazing panoramic views and a real sense of the desert’s unique spirit.…”

Review of a private Amman day trip to Petra and Wadi Rum, with transport, a two-hour jeep safari, practical costs, timing, and tips.

“Had a full day out visiting Petra and then Wadi Rum with our driver Hassan Al Khatib from Al Amal Tourism. Petra was amazing and Hassan was attentive to all details. 5 star performance. If we had our time again, would probably have had an overnight at Wadi Rum. But it was a brilliant experience nonetheless.”

Review of the Amman to Petra private day tour, with hotel pickup, Wi-Fi, four hours at Petra, driver tips, costs, and practical advice.

“Petra is the setting for the movie The Last Crusade. It was great to be able to visit a place I had always wanted to visit. From Petra, our driver/guide Abraham suggested we go further to the Dead Sea. The deep blue-green color of the Dead Sea and the strangely shaped rocky mountains to the east were very impressive. Being able to visit two places in one day was a great joy and a great memory.”

Review of Jordan’s 2-day tour from Amman to Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea, with practical advice on costs, camps, guides, and timing.

“It was a fantastic tour that allowed us to enjoy Jordan's three major attractions: Petra, the Wadi Rum Desert, and the Dead Sea. Marwan, our guide, was a wonderful and thoughtful person. This tour was truly wonderful and I would highly recommend it to my friends. The only thing that could be improved was that the bed of the pickup truck in the Wadi Rum Desert was wet, so it was cold to sit on. If they could have been more careful to keep the seat dry or put a cover on top, it would have been even better, so I would like to say so. Thank you for such…”
