About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- ColumbiaDes0 contributionsGreat tour of JordanJH made everything easy. Wonderful tour around Amman and the major sites—Dead Sea, Petra and Wadi Rum. We felt well taken care of. No safety concerns at all in Jordan. Hassan was our driver and was excellent! Highly recommend this tour.Written February 14, 2024
- 39traceys0 contributionsExcellent company and fantastic experience in Jordan.We had an excellent trip from start to finish. Jordan horizons took care of all the details and kept in touch with us from our entry point until we were safely back across the border. We felt well taken care of the entire time. We saw amazing sites, and our guides and our driver helped to make sure that we got the most out of our experience. Amjad Hlalat provided clear, updated information prior to booking the trip, and I feel completely confident as we began our journey.Written July 12, 2023
- lobojen0 contributionsOne of our best adventures to date with a great company!My daughter and I did the Petra tour and overnight in Wadi Rum with Jordan Horizons Tours and it’s one of the best things we’ve ever done. I used them for an extra service in crossing the border the day before from Eilat to Aqaba (it was like 30-45 JD) and that was worth it because they got us through the border easily and taxied us to our hotel. The next day we left our luggage at the hotel and the driver took us to Petra. He was great! We met our guide Sami at the visitors center in Petra and then our driver again after we left the visitors center. We then ventured to Sun City Camp for the night which was just incredible. Next day was a 4x4 tour of Wadi Rum w our Bedouin guide- so much fun. Everything was managed perfectly. We had all contact numbers on WhatsApp and our driver gave us a local cell phone in Petra and Wadi Rum and told us to call him any time. I highly recommend this company. Let them take care of everything for you so you don’t attempt to arrange everything in your own.Written May 28, 2023
- Kirillkhra0 contributionsFantastic company and tours!This was the smoothest booking, communication and the actual tour we could have wished for! Aida from the agency was always super quick to reply, taking care of any requests, recommendations and preferences. Itinerary was very detailed and informative. Our driver Aladdin was beyond fantastic, very good driving skills, and he cared so much about our experience adapting the days to our need, sharing stories and helping to find the best deals in shops and restaurants. The nicest person we met! I would 100% use this tour agency again as they reply instantly and if any even minor problems arise, they sort them out seamlessly!Written May 7, 2023
- pallavi a0 contributionsAmazing JordanWonderful trip and Jordan Horizon tours helped make it so. We changed our mind multiple times… they accommodated us everytime. We were late a few times… but they waited. We wanted local experiences.. and they made it happen. Hashim did it all with a smile. Went out of the way to make sure we get to visit Jerusalem, which we decided just a day before. I went with my friend… just the two of us, but we felt safe. People are very nice and the food is awesome. They take so much pride in their country. The landscape is so diverse … from desert of Wadi Rum to Amazing Petra to floating in Dead Sea, everyday was a new experience! By far the best trip I’ve ever taken. So much in love with this country. Hope to visit again someday😊Written March 12, 2023
- Kcookprof0 contributionsFabulous trip with Jordan horizonsMeet and greet at airport was fast, easy and professional. My driver for the entire trip was jihad. He was pleasant, knowledgeable friendly, and became my friend during my travels. During my travel, jihad became my teacher and taught me Arabic numbers and phrases. If I wanted to stop for a photo in the middle of our drive, or something to drink, he was always willing to accommodate me. My tour guide at Petra was Mamoun, he was fabulous, very knowledgeable about archaeology, willing to take a photo if needed, and just a great guy to talk to about Jordan and Petra. My tour of the desert with Mohamed was entertaining and fun. I highly recommend Jordan Horizons. If you’re coming to Jordan book a trip with them.Written December 21, 2022

Sammy was always on time and ready to take us to our next destination! He also knows some great places to eatWritten February 27, 2020
- carolynl2390 contributionsAmazing tour, great serviceJordan Horizon Tours put together an excellent itinerary including informative specialist tour guides and Andrea in their office was very helpful in putting together a schedule that fitted our requirements. We were looked after really well from pick up to drop off by our driver Mustafa. We loved the drive south, through desert, over snowy mountains and down into the valley at Petra. Visiting the ancient city ruins there was a high light. Our memorable day finished in the beautiful desert at Wadi Rum, staying in a Bedouin camp. Take plenty of warm clothes but an experience not to be missed. Exploring the desert by jeep, driving through the Jordan valley to the Dead Sea gave more opportunities to see the variety in this lovely country. We can’t wait for the chance to return and see more. Would 100% recommend Jordan Horizon Tours.Written February 18, 2020
- SneedCollard0 contributionsGreat personal tour of two of earth's wonders.I have to confess I was a little nervous about doing this with my 16-year-old son, but this tour ended up being the highlight of our trip. Everything was as advertised, from being met and shepherded through the border to having a great driver and vehicle to having personable, knowledgable tour guides meet us at Wadi Rum and Petra. Mohammed and Andrea were very communicative and helped me feel at ease about the entire adventure. Some notes: We stayed at the Tetra Tree Hotel in Petra and it was clean and comfortable, with a decent breakfast and dinner. We both enjoyed Wadi Rum even more than Petra, but stayed in Petra so we could beat the crowds the next morning. Instead of racing back across the border to Eilat on the second day, we booked the Intercontinental Hotel in Aqaba—a fabulous hotel at half the price of the Eilat equivalent. Think about it! Bring warm clothes and good rain gear if you visit in winter. We were freezing in Petra!Written January 29, 2020
- temmesq0 contributionsBest Tour Company Ever!!!!! (33 countries 6 continents) HIGHLY RECOMMENDOmg like where do I even begin!?!?! This tour company was absolutely amazing!!!!!! We travelled with 6 adults 2 kids (10 & 8) 1 newborn (9 months) for 6 days. They were super communicative from the start and helped us plan what we wanted our trip to look like and worked through several of our concerns through WhatsApp. They even got us into the best Wadi Rum hotel that there is even through we couldn’t book it on our own and it was sold out. Each hotel we stayed at provided breakfast and dinner like talk about ease. When we finally got to Jordan our driver that picked us up was the sweetest and most understanding man ever. By the end of the trip he was like an uncle to us and We learned all about him and his family. He was always so patient and understanding. You can imagine traveling with 2 kids and a baby, we were usually not on time or wanted To stay at certain places longer than expected but he worked with us on our schedule for each day and was super flexible. The bus provided was also top notch. We were super comfortable. We joke that our bus was more comfortable and luxurious than our airline flights lol. Also our tour guides were great. All of them spoke great English and were super knowledgeable. They took us to all the right spots and even restaurants. I never had to use my brain the whole trip to try and figure out what the next move would be at all. Everything was perfectly planned. Down to the places to eat it and we ate Oh so very devious food. It was amazing. Definitely gave me peace of mind especially having our newborn with us. Highly recommend this company if you want a peaceful and enjoyable vacation. Wouldn’t do Jordan without them!!!!! The icing on the cake was when my husband got sick (something he caught while we were in India before coming to Jordan) the driver immediately took us to the best hospital in Amman and stayed with us to help with the doctors. And the tour company checked in on us several times to ensure we were okay. Btw I don’t even like writing reviews but I had to write this one. I wish I could like totally put my number here so anyone reading could call me about but seriously this is one of the best tour companies we have ever used and we have visited 33 countries and counting. Worth every penny.Written January 15, 2020
- Stanley B0 contributionsWell worth it!!We chose the two days/one night experience and really enjoyed ourselves. They do need to update their website graphics, but don't let that discourage you. Hassan was very professional and handled our entry at the Jordan border very well. Ali, our driver, was so great at making us feel comfortable and he is so friendly, we felt like we were being taken care of by a longtime friend. The Bedouin guide for Wadi Rum was very nice, made sure we got to see everything and got us back to the driver on time. Since it was winter and cool outside at night, we opted for a hotel instead of sleeping outside. The Tetra Tree hotel where we were placed is beautiful, classy, clean and a better hotel than I expected! The hotel's upstairs rooftop dining for dinner and breakfast offered great food and views of the city. Mamoun picked us up the next morning and is an excellent tour guide for Petra and one of the best I have ever done a tour with. His added research enriched the experience. The Alqantarah restaurant we went to after Petra with our driver had good food and was also more than we expected to do, which was great. The only feedback for the Alqantarah restaurant is to try to keep some of the flies and cats out of the restaurant 🙂. Afterward, Hassan and Ali smoothly facilitated getting us back to the border. Mohammed stayed in touch with us every day both days to make sure things were alright; it really was excellent customer service!Written December 24, 2019
- arhuv0 contributionsexceptional tours - 100% reccomendableit was a family trip -very well organised from visa in the airport till drop to the airport special thanks to the organiser Andrea and for her instead communication replies and the drivers mohannad and mustafa were very gud and accomodating travelling in a day from Amman to petra - then from petra to wadi Rum and then back to Amman wouldnt have been possible without classic wadi rum tours we enjoyed the trip and thank you for ur coordinationWritten December 21, 2019
- jeffn0010 contributionsAmazing adventure with organized, knowledgeable, and friendly guidesWe did the two day / 1 night tour, leaving from the Eilat border, and had the best time. Classic Wadi Rum Tours took care of everything - they were incredibly organized and made the whole trip easy so we could enjoy the fun adventure and not worry about the logistics. They were super communicative, and sent a whatsapp message the night before confirming our details (and with a photo and contact information of who we'd meet at the border, Hasan). At the border Hasan took care of all the paperwork to enter (and exit) - and then our main guide Abu Hasan was great, and spent two days with us taking us to each location we visited in Jordan. He drove us to Wadi Rum for a guided 4x4 tour of the desert - fantastic experience, like seeing a beautiful desert on Mars. Our guide in the desert dropped us off / and picked us up from a camp (highly recommend going with the bubble tent that has the clear roof!) - and then Abu Hasan drove us to Petra. We had a fantastic tour of Petra from a brilliant guide / archaeologist (Mamoun, ask for him!) - and after lunch Abu Hasan brought us back to the border. Only regret is not visiting for longer. Thanks again for a great adventure!Written October 12, 2019
- Robert M0 contributionsMarvelous sights and very comfortable accomodation with insight on the cultureWe've stayed 2 nights on the desert with Classic Wadi Rum tours under the enormous and intimidating rock. The accomodation is more comfort than you would expcet on the desert (including Wi-Fi ;). The desert is beautiful itself and the whole day trip is more than enough for an avarage traveler to fill up with sights and climbing. Additionally, if you would like, they will take you on the sunset (nice addition for free :) But the most surpising thing, which we can confirm after 7 days trip, are the meals. Breakfast and supper (Beduin style grill made in the holes and cover by sand... yammy) full of colors, local style and taste. Just taste and taste... and... :)Written October 4, 2019

I highly recommend Classic Wadi Rum tours, all of the positive things you read are true.
I took a 2 day package, staying in Amman the night of my international arrival, then stated I Petra my 2nd night, then drove back late and took international flight home. I felt I saw a good portion while I was there and am happy, but could certainly have spent more time.
I was met right at the airport and the greeter couldn’t have been more helpful to get me through customs. The driver taking me to the hotel didn’t speak English very well so at roughly 2:00am I email Andrea and said I couldn’t communicate with the driver and by 8:00am I had a new driver (Haithum) and wow was he great, he truly made the adventure worth while. He spoke very good English, knew his way around, had plenty of stories and made the drive to Petra very comfortable, even encouraged me to play my American tunes via blue on his car stereo.
I had worked with Andrea before hand that if there was time I would very much like to see Mt. Nebo and potentially even the Dead Sea. She gave me a very reasonable price and said that I could add that on once I was underway depending on how much time we had. Haithum took care of the rest.
Andrea and her operations manager checked in via phone on my first day while on the way to Petra which I thought was outstanding, they both wanted to just make sure that everything was going well.
Once in Petra, my driver helped get me into my hotel, (Edom Hotel - another awesome idea, no need to book the 3 time more expensive Montevide as Edom is nice and only 1 minute further). Once in the hotel Haithum waited while I checked in then he walked me to the visitors center and helped me get my ticket.
I arranged for a guide through Andrea (highly suggest this), but only for one day. The guide was awesome, told me everything I ever wanted to know.
All and all, I could have had a better experience. If you are going to Jordan for a reasonable price and a custom tour call/email Andrea at Classic Wadi Rum Tours. You won’t be disappointed.
Thanks, one satisfied customer!
