Highly Recommended Company - Thank you Petra Nights Tours! Petra excursion was not included in the trip as we had a full packed of schedule for the business trip. Was given a chance with the help of this company... Inquired a day before and received a swift response from them, Petra itself was really amazing and this company arranged the tour perfectly from private transfers to / from Dead Sea, entrance fee and tour guide (optional). Thank you again and hope to avail the service again. Will definitely recommend.

Highly Recommend - First trip to Petra and couldn't fault the experience. The driver was on time, very polite and told me that if i needed to stop at any time for food/drinks etc it would not be a problem. The guide i had waiting for me spoke perfect english, was very informative and never seemed to try and rush me. He also gave alot of insight such as the history, the meaning behind certain parts and what other routes i could take on my way back that would not be too long. Is a great place to visit but be warned, there will be ALOT of people trying to sell you goods such as clothing, jewels, donkey rides and to guide people on non approved paths etc I was told just to say "no thank you" and that seemed to work

What a great surprise! - Tayseer had been designated our driver from Amman to the Dead Sea a couple of days before. We had no expectations before we met as it had been booked for us. What we learned about Jordan through Tayseer's eyes and stories in such a short commute made us book for the Dead Sea to Petra tour with him! It has been such a pleasure to learn all the interesting facts from Tayseer in such a passionate way. The provided car was great too! Highly recommended

Amazing Petra Tour guide - We had Tayseer as our guide and he was just incredible. He first gave us a transfer from Amman hotel to Dead Sea. We learnt so much on this small transfer that we booked Petra day tour with him. His knowledge is incredible and he just a really nice guy. Would highly recommend and will always use Tayseer on every visit to Jordan.

Best Guide - Our guide knew all the secret paths and how to get the most out of the tour. He got great pictures. Be ready for an active hike. If your are not in top condition, take the donkey up to the temple! I'm not kidding! But walk down.

Driver was on time and courteous - The drive from the dead sea, Jordan side is about 3 hours. it is up hill and made us a bit car sick. Petra itself is huge, it is actually a city. The building that i often depicted is the what they call the treasury, but there are many similar carvings. Many were grave sites. Wear comfortable shoes, it is basically an old city along a trade route and the walk is hilly, rocky and long. The 5 miles is the minimum. there are parts where you can hike up the mountain to see up close to carvings or panoramic views.
