Great experience - Our tour guide was Orwa and he was very knowledgeable! He taught us a lot about the history of the city and took us places where the locals frequent. He was very friendly and understanding and even bought us some snacks from the local vendors. We enjoyed our tour.

Great Way to see the markets - We had a great morning with Orwah. We saw the old market and new market. Learned about the Jordanian culture and had some treats along the way. He was very personable and seemed to know everyone!

Great tout , Great Guide - When travelling we always do a walking tour of the local city. On this occasion, I was the only participant in the tour. Despite this, Orwa was very professional and knowledgeable in this area of Amman. We went everywhere and he knew everything and everyone mostly by name. This was a very genuine walking tour. We would NOT have achieved 5% of the information doing this ourselves.

A highlight in the discovery of Amman - I come to Amman for the sixth time and yet Orwah managed to captivate me for 3 hours by making me discover the unsuspected heart of the old city with passion and generosity!!! It is an inexhaustible source of information about his city, a highlight of my trip ...

Not good value - Good guide. Disappointing venue. The walks to the old markets and new markets were boring and not exciting. Did not enjoy this tour. Expensive and poor value. Not recommended
