One Day Petra & Wadi Rum from Aqaba

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The tour driver was very helpful and took care of us throughout the day . I would recommend this company to anyone who would like a trip of a lifetime to see one of the seven wonders of the world . It is an awesome experience.

On the morning of the booking there was a technical issue at the port due to a change of vehicle/driver which in turn caused 30 min delay to departure. The driver ( who was fantastic ) spoke little English, being a 2 hour drive we expected to be given some key information about the area as we travelled. Upon arrival at Petra, we were not given any specific instructions regarding the tour, we were told in broken English no rush and later we will watch sunset at Wadi Rum, I was given drivers phone number and told to phone him on our way back to site entrance at Petra. We then met our tour guide at Petra and started our tour, the guide again was very friendly and knowledgeable. However the tour felt rushed with little time for photos with the explanation of plenty of time for photos on way back. We weren’t given any water or information regarding lunch during tour and as my partner is diabetic we ended up buying our own lunch at Petra. At 2:15 I then received WattsApp message informing us driver was ready to take us to Wadi Rum, it was only be chance I seen this and bizarre choice of contact as I had I given th driver my phone number, It then just took us 30 mins to return to the entrance only then to be to told that Wadi Rum was now finished. We were taken to a stop off for lunch but as we already had bought lunch this was no longer required. So we were just returned to our ship. This tour was very poorly organised, poor information / communication and certainly didn’t warrant cancelling, especially as lunch wasn’t required making up for any so called lost time. I would advise anyone planning on booking this to think twice, it is impossible to fully experience Petra in 1 day let alone trying to squeeze everything else in. If you have the time book for separate days or pick one or the other. I would have safer money, been afforded more time had I booked on my cruise ship, unfortunately I didn’t have this information prior to my trip.

We had the most amazing trip. Our lovely driver picked us up at the hotel to drive us to Petra. We had a great guide who told us loads of interesting information about the historic city. The lunch was very good with lots of choice. Our driver then drove us to Wadi Rum for the jeep safari. Our driver was again great we took us all around the most beautiful sites and we watched the spectacular sunset. Best day and would recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you again.
