A good tour to see Jerash - We had a great tour with Mohammad B. We were 4 females all different ages and we found Mohammad friendly, knowledgeable, flexible and patient and we were able to have a laugh with him. We were never rushed us and were able to spend ample time in Jerash. He even dropped us to a restaurant we wanted to go for dinner instead. Thank you for a great day!

Best car services - I booked the trip online and they provided us one of the best drivers Yousef for the whole day. He had an in-depth knowledge about Jordan and all historical incidents and importance of different places. It was super engaging and memorable. I can’t imagine any trip better than this. He is very soft spoken, good speaker, and very professional. I highly recommend their service and ask for Yousef.

Excellent Jordan driver - friendly, helpful & trustworthy - We had a great day with Bardaghawi as he drove us around key sites in Jordan. He was very friendly, helpful and trustworthy. He arrived early for our trip and was very accomodating to ensure we had the best experience, even taking a detour to help us buy some shoes. Bardaghawi has good knowledge of Jordan and shared lots of local insights, including an excellent restaurant recommendation. We would highly recommend for future trips and travel around Jordan. Thank you!

Tour and driver were a highlight of our visit to Jordan! - The sights are all spectacular. The drive through Jordan countryside to get to all three destinations was so interesting thanks to our very pleasant and capable driver, Hosam. He clearly enjoys showing his country to visitors and was generous in pointing out areas of interest from the car so that the whole day was a faxcinating learning experience. We highly recommend him, this tour, and this company.
