This was one of the scariest experiences I have been through, it was a traumatizing experience to say the least. On the way back from Petra to Tel Aviv and crossing the border. We had to go through the security to enter Israel and going through the process I had to wait 30 minutes at the immigration office, after 30 minutes I left the immigration office to find the tour bus already left, at that point I started shaking as it was 7:30pm and started getting darker outside, Also the people that were hanging by the borders looked very unsafe to be around. My friend was on the bus and called me and told me the bus driver refused to wait for me and everyone on the bus was complaining about this reckless behavior but he didn't care at all. I was stranded alone in the border as a female traveler and I had to go through hassle to take a shared taxi with strangers because that what I was able to find to get to Jerusalem and then take another taxi to get to Tel Aviv. I am still recovering from this trip as it was not worthed it the money for the stress you go through. I will not use this company ever again and don't recommend it to people who care about their safety.

The tour was fun, and our Jordanian tour guide Matty was really good. He gave us very detailed infos and answered all kinds of questions that we asked. He brought treats for us on the bus for the long ride. He made our trip enjoyable, disbit the 4hrs+ drive, and stressful border crossing.

Our guide Mahdi and driver Ibrahim were amazing! Everything was well organized with clear communication. We got caught in a rain storm that blocked the road, Mahdi kept us informed and Ibrahim navigated us safely across. The camp we stayed at was really nice, very welcoming staff the campfire and shisha was a lot of fun, the tea was delicious! The boarder took a bit but it was explained to us what was needed and easy to get across, no one in our group had any issues. I absolutely loved it this tour, the people, the food and of course the sites were truly wonderful. If you're debating on going..GO!

Great tour guide Ali, gave us tons of great information and facts during our trip. Tour was very organized with no delays throughout. Accommodations were good and clean even for the basic tents, campsite was very cute and cozy. I’m glad I chose the 3 day tour instead of 2 because it gave me enough time to settle in Jordan and see more, 2 days would have been way too rushed. it was worth it all around!
