    Exploring the incredible landscapes of Waqqas in Jordan was a highlight for us, especially the breathtaking vistas of Petra and Wadi Rum. While the accommodations were generally comfortable, we found the service at one hotel a bit lacking, which was a small hiccup in an otherwise memorable trip.

    We had an unforgettable adventure that perfectly blended culture and nature. The chance to wander through ancient ruins and marvel at stunning landscapes left us speechless, while the local cuisine was a delightful surprise, especially the flavorful dishes we enjoyed during our meals. A couple of logistical hiccups with transportation made things a bit tricky, but overall, this private tour was a fantastic way to dive into the rich heritage and beauty of the region.

    Our family recently took a private tour that whisked us through stunning sites, and we loved the unique experiences at each stop. One of our favorite moments was sampling local dishes while sharing stories with our guide, who made everything feel personal and engaging. The vast landscape of the desert was breathtaking, and we found ourselves lost in the beauty of the rock formations and the adventure of a jeep ride. However, we did feel that some of the travel times between locations could have been shortened to allow for a bit more relaxation. Overall, it was a memorable journey that allowed us to delve into history and culture while enjoying quality family time.

    Our four days in Jordan were filled with unforgettable experiences, from the breathtaking beauty of Petra to the serene landscapes of Wadi Rum. The local food was a delight; we enjoyed freshly made falafel and traditional mansaf, which added a warm touch to our evenings. While the itinerary was well-planned, we wished we had a bit more time to soak in the charm of Madaba and Jerash, as each site had so much to offer.
