I had such a lovely experience on my Jerash private day tour this April. From the morning, everything was smooth and stress-free. The driver arrived on time, and the trip started in a calm and comfortable way, which I really appreciated. On the way to Jerash, I was already enjoying the views and feeling excited. When we arrived, I was honestly amazed. The place is full of history and very well preserved. Walking through the ancient streets really felt like stepping back in time. My guide, Moe, was very friendly and easy to talk to. He explained things in a simple way, not too much, which made everything easy to understand. I didn’t feel rushed at all—I had enough time to explore, take photos, and just enjoy the moment. Overall, it was a very nice and memorable day. Everything felt relaxed and personal. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jordan.

Beware! This is a transfer, not a tour. We were picked up at our hotel. I was asked to sit in the front seat rather than the back with my wife. Hmm - ok, not a big deal. The driver was very nice , great wnglish and we enjoyed our conversation to Jerash. However, once we got there he told us it should take us a couple of hours and he would be waiting right where he dropped us off. As he was. In summary, we received a very expensive transfer and not a tour. We were denied our initial request for a refund from Viator.
Hello Ron, Thank you for your feedback. Your booking included private transportation with a professional English speaking driver, along with flexibility for optional stops along the route. At Jerash, the driver remained available at the agreed location while you explored the site at your own pace, as waiting time is an included part of the service. For transparency, our listing clearly states that licensed local guides inside Jerash are not included but can be arranged separately at the visitor center if desired. We also appreciate your note that the driver was professional and enjoyable to speak with. Following your feedback, a 35% goodwill refund was issued in good faith, and we remained available for any further assistance. Best regards, Reservations
Moe, our driver, is an excellent driver with very good English. He collected us promptly from our hotel and talked to us about the country throughout the journey - extremely informative. I suspect that we took longer than usual exploring Jerash, but he still found the time to take us to the Blue Mosque on the,way back, after we mentioned that we hadn't visited it. He parked outside and accompanied us around the mosque, acting as our guide. We had a fantastic day ourmt and would highly recommend this tour and Moe as your driver.

Absolutely Incredible – Amman to Jerash tour with Jordanizer & Moe! After booking the 3-day Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea (plus Mt Nebo, Madaba and Aqaba) tour with Jordanizer, I decided to add on a Jerash tour — and wow, I am so glad I did! Jerash is a truly breathtaking city with lots of history and architectural sights in one place - and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, Moe made sure everything was seamless and comfortable. Jordanizer once again proved why they’re the best!!! ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️
