Amazing food tour with Mohammed - Food tour around was a great experience! Mohammed took us to different places to try various foods such as middle eastern sweets, drinks, the best falafel in Aqaba and hibiscus drink in local neighborhood. He was also a great companion told us interesting stories about the city, language and culture. Highly recommend this food tour for anyone who likes discovering cities off the beaten track.

Great experience in Aqaba - If you go to Aqaba, the walking and food tasting tour should not be missed. The guide Mohammed is very friendly and flexible. He will tell you all about the history of the city and, after watching the sunset in the harbor, take you to authentic shops, where you can taste various Jordanian treats. He knows the people in the shops and they are very hospitable. You can look, taste and they will tell you with pride about their products (spices, tea and coffee etc.) We also tasted at different places a sandwich filled with the tastiest fries in Aqaba, drank coffee, tasted fresh made baklava, drank a cold hibiscus drink, had dates and ate a falafel sandwich. You really come to places that you would otherwise never have found or walked past! We wouldn't have wanted to miss it, because it gave us a good idea of ​​'real life' in Aqaba. In short, the walking and food tasting tour is highly recommended! Eva, Lisa and Michel from Holland, on tour together with Marie-Louise from Germany.

Fantastic time, kind guide and an insightful walk! - We travelled extensively through Jordan, but this tour really introduced us to the everyday Jordan. We walked through lanes and experience the daily slice of life of a regular Aqaba resident. Mohammed is a very kind and engaging guide. We learnt a lot through our conversations. The spots and shops we visited were well thought of, and we truly truly enjoyed sampling the delicious local food!

Food Tour of local specialities with Mohammad - Mohammed Is a very kind person, he did the Tour for me alone! He spoke about the history of Jordan and the local curiosities, and I had the possibility to better understand the time of Ramadan. In the city market streets I tasted cheese, wraps, dates, a lot of delicious food and special teas. I strictly recommend a Tour with Mohammad, he is a very friendly young man and gives you good tips for your trip in Jordan.

No show - Would love to have taken this but the guide was a no show despite taking our $$. Not only did we waste a night on vacation but now I have to waste my time arguing for a refund.
