My husband and I swore we would never do a tour, but I have to say, this tour was the only way we could have seen as much of Jordan as we did.

My husband and I swore we would never do a tour, but I have to say, this tour was the only way we could have seen as much of Jordan as we did. Actually Jordan, Remarkable country for journey, such a different part of the world to experience and learn about, opened my eyes to history I only knew on the surface. Nice-sized group at 12 people and we were very compatible -- curious, responsible, smart, funny. Trip was described as "Active" Highly recommend it for those who want a great experience of different culture.

I was very happy with the organization of the tour, it was calm and relaxed, plenty of information was given each day by our guide. He made allowances for all the different people in the group, We had no problems. The hotels used were of a good standard, and the driver who took us around was safe and got us to places in plenty of time. The highlight was Petra of course. It does not disappoint at all. It was introduced to us in a great way. Thanks to all who made it a wonderful experience.

Sami was the most amazing tour guide I've ever met. His knowledge of the country was absolutely astounding. He had an amazing sense of humor, and kept everyone entertained throughout the week. The tour itself was very high paced. But the sites that we saw were absolutely amazing, made even more spectacular by Sami's knowledge. This was a fantastic tour and by the end we both felt like we had seen pretty much all of Jordan. The time at the Wadi Rum was something neither of us had ever experienced. It was definitely a highlight of the holiday. I would recommend this tour of Jordan to anyone.

Just completed the 9 day of Jordan tour and WOW. What an incredible country, and this tour was a perfect way to see it. Our guide was knowledgeable, funny, approachable and passionate, doing everything possible to make our experience perfect. Each day was unique and packed with things to do, a few early starts, but coupled with relaxed nights this was no problem - it's easy to get up early when you are excited for the day! My best site were the day at Petra and our time at all the sites, although every day was great. Our group was a good size, transport was comfortable, food was delicious if you like hummus and falafel you have come to the right place at Jordan and everything was organized well. 5* is not enough, I will happily book with Map -Tour & Travels again. If you want to see Jordan, I recommend this tour! Thanks Mr.Tawfiq.
