A personal dream Awesome adventure!! I enjoyed every second. Visiting Petra, riding in the desert at Wadi Rum, sleeping under the open sky if wanted, enjoying breathtaking views every day... and all this with wonderful and well-cared-for Arabian horses. I was lucky and got many tips for handling Arabian horses from the owner, Hashem Farajat. Afterwards, a relaxing visit of the Dead Sea. Everything was perfectly organized by the Amman office and on-site personnel. 100% recommendation!!

Simply Unfogettable!! The view of Mount Nebo was amazing!! The day was foggy but we we were able to see the majestic view from the eastern side. The sign board showing the cities in the Holy Land across the Jordan River was simply jaw-dropping! Had to imagine through the fog, the beauty of the land. A simply unforgettable trip!!

Amazing trip 😊 This is amazing trip with friends. We’re go to the Jordan with « copine de voyage ». Shaher is a great guide and he’s very competent. He can say about history, political and fun in Jordan. It was a very nice trip and external company was always in time for activities. Thank you so much for that. Sarah
