Discovering the city of Petra, watching memorable sunsets all surrounded by an amazing hospitality provided by locals.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Very nice!!! We had a lovely driver, Muhammad and he could not have been nicer. He made it extra special for usRead the operator's response here:
Hi Jaana,
Thank you for your nice feedback and happy to hear that you enjoyed your tour in Jordan and you will recommend us to others around. About the payment, it was shame what happened about the payment. And to be honest it was first time happened with us. But to avoid what happened we will advise our clients to pay by bank or cash upon arrival.
All the best wishes from our team!
