- Petra - Wadi Musa - you will arrive at one of the local restaurants for lunch, then you will head to Petra visitor center where you will meet your tour guide to begin your 2.5 hours tour with him after that you will have free time to discover the city by yourselves and then will be the driver waiting for you to drive you to your drop off
- Siq - The 1.2km Siq, or canyon, with its narrow, vertical walls, is undeniably one of the highlights of Petra. The walk through this magical corridor, as it snakes its way towards the hidden city, is one full of anticipation for the wonders ahead
- Al-Khazneh - Known locally as Al Khazneh, this tomb is where most visitors fall in love with Petra. The Hellenistic facade is an astonishing piece of craftsmanship. Although carved out of iron-laden sandstone to serve as a tomb for the Nabataean King Aretas III (c 100 BCE–CE 200), the Treasury derives its name from the story that an Egyptian pharaoh hid his treasure here (in the facade urn) while pursuing the Israelites.
- Aqaba - Aqaba carries the relaxed small-town atmosphere of a popular local getaway. The town offers a sociable stopover en route to the diving and snorkelling clubs to the south and the big destinations of Wadi Rum and Petra. It’s also an obvious place to break a journey to or from Israel and the Palestinian Territories or Egypt

The perfect day tour - This was an amazing tour! We were picked up at our hotel at the time specified and our driver Ahmed was absolutely wonderful. He was very nice and patient throughout the entire drive. When we got to Petra we were given a guided tour by Sami who is the best! He is so knowledgeable and funny, we learned so much while having a great time! We took longer than we were supposed to while completing the steps to the Monestary, and Ahmed was kind enough to get us boxed lunches to make sure we don’t miss our next leg of the tour. We then went to Wadi Rum, where we were driven in the sand by Yusuf who was a great driver. We felt safe, while still having an adventurous time in the desert. Make sure to watch the sunset here! Overall this was the perfect day tour and it ended up lasting 18 hours from pick up to drop off, jam packed with everything we wanted to do in both of these sites!

A trip to remember - I highly recommend the Jordainian mappers tour. Our guide Hisham was very professional and knowledgeable about the area and being a local he took on on beautiful scenic routes.
Our tour guide in Petra Sami, share his expertise historian knowledge which was priceless.
We were two women traveling on this tour and we felt so comfortable and safe even tracking off into the desert on our ride in wadi rum.
It was such a fun filled day filled with history, culture and lifetime experience.
The Jordanian mappers can give you 1 day, 2 days or more of wonder memories and life experiences.

These guys nailed it. Absolutely worth the money. - We had such a great time with Jordanian Mappers. Our driver, Mohammad, was super fun. He kept us on track and got us safely everywhere we needed to be. I was super impressed that he was able to get us to Petra AND Wadi Rum for a jeep tour, tea, and sunset, even after our cruise ship came in late. We got back to Aqaba and even had some time to spare, so he picked up coffees for us and we cruised around town while he showed us some neat things in the city. We had so much fun.
Our guide at Petra, Sami, was awesome too. He knew we were on a tight schedule and he did an awesome tour for us, helping us see in an hour and a half just about everything he shows in two and a half hours. We were all panting and sweating when we were done!! Definitely not for the faint at heart, though cramming everything was completely our choice.
The buffet lunch was so good too. A great, wide taste of Jordanian food.
I’d 100% recommend this company. Especially if you don’t want to do a tour bus excursion from the cruise ship. These guys make a personalized tour awesome. No waiting around for the lingerers in your tour bus group!

Excellent - Hisham is an excellent tour guide who created a tailor made experience for us. He arranged our transfers from Jerusalem to the Jordanian border, which were seamless and he also organsied our visas. We loved our time in Jordan and really appreciated his knowledge of the country.
He organised our hotel in Petra and Wadi Rum which met excellent standards. Hisham picked us up from our hotels everyday on time and responded to all of ours calls and needs immediately. He also showed excellent hospitality by offering us tea, coffee and refreshments.
We were very happy with our experience in Jordan and would highly recommend him as a tour guide as he knows all the hidden gems the country has to offer.

Everything was fantastic! - Thank you very much! Everything was fantastic. Drivers were polite and cooperative, they didn't mind stopping us for pictures and taking them, the experiences you booked us were more than worth it! We loved the camel riding with the sunset in Wadi Rum it was a view I never have seen before.
Thanks for the recommendations, the hotel in the Dead Sea was amazing; I would recommend it to other travelers too!
