Full Day Petra Tour - We had a full day tour to Petra from our hotel the Kempinski at the Dead Sea. Our driver Mohammad bardaghawi was wonderful. It is a long journey about 3 hours from the Dead Sea, he gave us information on the way about the region and we made a couple stops, one for Turkish coffee and the other at a local shop before we started the last leg up the mountain to Petra. We had a private guide for 2 hours once inside Petra, then we walked the famous 800 steps to the Monastery and it was so worth it. If you don’t want to walk there are donkeys you can get as well. There is a wonderful place to eat run by the locals at the top with a nice view of the Monastery. It was not crowded at all due to the conflicts in the region but it is safe and can’t believe we experienced this wonder of the world with no large crowds, if you are wanting to go please do the people are very nice and welcoming to tourists and like to share their cultural heritage with you! It was a surreal experience to be able to travel to Petra.

Wonderful way to experience Petra - We booked a tour with a pickup from Hilton Dead Sea Resort with all entrances and a guide pre-booked at Petra. Anas was our driver and he was exceptional. The drive was comfortable and smooth with some interesting stop-offs along the way. His knowledge of the history of Jordan and Petra was excellent and made the 3 hour drive pass by very quickly. At Petra he came with us to sort the tickets and introduce us to our guide for the day. After a great tour Anas was waiting to collect us for the drive back to the hotel. Would definitely recommend this tour to others.

From Dead Sea to Petra is not so far - We had private transport by car so the way took about 2,5 hours. It was good. We had our own pause when we need it. Petra was nice.

Petra transportation - This tour is strictly transportation to and from Petra, from the Dead Sea. That being said, our driver was very kind, pleasant, and professional. This option gave us a more personal experience that avoided touring Petra with a larger crowd, slowing us down, and allowing us to maximize our time in Petra.

Dishonest company and guide - It’s a horrible experience. 1. We booked via viator stating our hotel for pick up. It turns out the V&H asked for our confirmation 1am the night before the trip! 2. On our way to Petra, the guide (an obese guy) kept asking if we have plan for lunch and insisting that he can “arrange” that (similar to the previous 1 star comment!). At the end of the trip, the guide charged us 75 JOD for a 20ish JOD meal! 3. He also “arranged” a visit to a so call souvenir shop which sold rubbish products. NEVER EVER AGAIN
