Our 2-day journey through Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea was one of those experiences that is almost impossible to put into words.
Traveling as husband and wife, we wanted something special — and somehow, this trip exceeded everything we imagined.
Our journey began with the magnificent Petra, where walking through the ancient city and seeing its incredible monuments up close was truly breathtaking. It’s one thing to see Petra in photos, but standing there together and experiencing it in person is something completely different.
Then came Wadi Rum — and this is where the adventure became truly magical.
We enjoyed an unforgettable sunset jeep safari, driving through the spectacular desert landscapes as the sun slowly disappeared behind the mountains. Watching the colors of the desert change while sharing that moment together was absolutely beautiful.
And then came our overnight stay at the Bubble Camp. Falling asleep surrounded by the incredible Wadi Rum desert and waking up to that scenery was an experience we will never forget.
The evening was made even more special by an amazing dinner — delicious food, a wonderful atmosphere, and the feeling of being somewhere completely unique. Sitting together under the desert sky made it one of the most memorable nights of our trip.
We then continued our journey toward the Dead Sea, the perfect place to relax after our adventure. Floating in the famous salty waters and simply enjoying time together was the perfect ending to an incredible two days.
And a very special thank you to Bilal, who made the entire journey so enjoyable. He was kind, professional, patient, helpful, and always made sure we were comfortable. More importantly, he treated us with genuine warmth and made us feel like we were traveling with someone who truly cared about our experience.
From the first kilometer to the last, everything felt relaxed and enjoyable. Bilal wasn't simply our driver — he became an important part of the memories we created.
Petra gave us the history. Wadi Rum gave us the adventure. The sunset gave us the romance. The desert gave us the magic. And Bilal made the whole journey feel effortless.
As a husband and wife, we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful experience.
Two days. Incredible places. One unforgettable desert night. And memories we will carry with us for a lifetime.
A huge thank you to Bilal for making our Jordan adventure so special.
If you're looking for a truly unforgettable way to experience Jordan, this is the kind of trip that stays in your heart long after you return home.

Disappointing Private Transfer Experience
I booked and paid for a private two-day transfer in Jordan covering Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea. After I had already paid, a representative from the office contacted me and explained that since this was a private trip, I could manage my own time and choose the timing myself. He gave me some recommendations regarding the schedule, but made it clear that the final timing was up to me.
My understanding was that the driver would be available for approximately eight hours per day and that I could decide how to use that time within my itinerary.
On the first day, the driver picked me up at 8:00 AM and we arrived in Petra at around 11:20 AM. He then told me that I had only three hours in Petra. I did not understand why, because according to my calculations, I could spend at least four hours there before continuing to Wadi Rum. The driver was clearly not happy about it, but eventually agreed.
There was another situation on the first day that immediately made me uncomfortable. We stopped at a tourist shop where various products were being offered to visitors. From the very beginning, I had the feeling that, as a tourist, I was being taken to places where I was expected to spend extra money. I told the driver directly that I travel a lot, I understand how these tourist arrangements work, and I did not want to be taken to tourist shops or other places that were not part of my plans. I asked him simply to do the job I had paid for and be my driver. He was also clearly unhappy with this.
On the second day, he picked me up at 10:00 AM and we drove towards the Dead Sea. We agreed that he would take me to a five-star hotel that he recommended, where I could access the Dead Sea.
When we arrived at the hotel security gate, the driver suddenly asked me to give him cash for the entrance. I explained that I did not have cash and that I would go to the hotel reception and pay by card directly there. He insisted that “the rules are different here” and that I had to pay cash directly to the security guard.
I refused because security is not the hotel reception or cashier. I wanted to go inside, speak to the reception myself, confirm the entrance fee and pay officially by card. The driver became irritated, telling me that he lived there, knew the rules better than I did and that I should listen to him. When I refused to follow his suggestion and insisted on speaking directly to the hotel reception, he became visibly angry.
Given how strongly he insisted on a cash payment directly to security and how angry he became when I refused, I was left with the suspicion that there may have been some informal arrangement between the driver and the security staff. I cannot confirm this as a fact, but this was genuinely the impression the situation gave me. I could not understand why simply going to reception and paying the hotel directly was such a problem.
In the end, I refused to enter that hotel under those conditions and asked the driver to take me to another hotel that I had originally chosen myself.
When we arrived there, the driver told me that I had only two hours at the Dead Sea, and that if I was not back within two hours, he would leave. He even told me that if I wanted to stay longer, I could call the company and ask them to send another driver.
Again, I expressed my dissatisfaction. He had picked me up at 10:00 AM, and based on an approximately eight-hour working day, according to my calculations there was enough time for me to spend around four hours at the Dead Sea. I could not understand why, during a private service where I had been told that I could manage my own time, the driver was once again deciding how much time I was allowed to spend at my destination.
Throughout these two days, I constantly felt as though the driver was setting his own rules and deciding my schedule, even though the company representative had specifically explained to me after payment that this was a private trip and that I could manage my own time.
I do want to thank the driver for one thing. After this stressful situation, I accidentally left my phone in his car, and he later returned it to me. I genuinely appreciate that.
However, overall, I cannot recommend this private transfer. It was expensive and did not provide the flexibility and comfort I expected. Instead of enjoying the trip, I repeatedly had to argue about how much time I could spend at the places I had travelled to see.
Most importantly, from the very first day I had an uncomfortable feeling that, as a tourist, I was being encouraged to spend additional money — starting with the tourist shop and later with the request to pay cash at the hotel security gate. I travel frequently and I am familiar with how tourist-oriented stops and commissions can work, which is exactly why I asked the driver from the beginning not to take me to such places and simply to provide the transportation service I had paid for.
For the amount I paid, I believe it would have been cheaper, easier and much less stressful to travel by taxi.

One of the best tours
Our 2-day tour to Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea was an unforgettable experience from start to finish! Everything was perfectly organized, making the trip smooth, comfortable, and stress-free.
Petra was absolutely breathtaking—walking through the Siq and seeing the Treasury for the first time is something I'll never forget. Wadi Rum was equally incredible, with its stunning desert landscapes, exciting jeep tour, and unforgettable sunset. Floating in the Dead Sea was the perfect way to relax and end the adventure.
A special thanks to our guide and driver, who were professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure everyone was comfortable. Their recommendations and hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jordan. In just two days, you get to experience three of the country's most iconic destinations. It was truly worth every moment and exceeded all my expectations. Five stars!

Best driver in the world
we booked this tour during my work in Jordan, and we was so glad that we had some extra time to see 3 important sites with one of the best drivers we meet in our life, Mohammad was really doing more than his job, we didn't stop talking all the time as he was letting us know about Jordan and the sites we visit, he's funny and educated, so nice and helped us taking so many pic in this tour, we will back another time to Jordan for a longer tour and for sure we will ask Creative to get Mohammad to be with us

Don't Miss Jordan Treasures
Amazing Experience!! Petra is an unbelievable city and tombs sculptured into rock walls. Take the hike to the Monastery. Staying in a Bubble Tent is "out of this world". If a clear night, definitely do the stargazing. Top off the trip with a mud rub and float in the Dead Sea. Make sure you have a changing room and shower, day pass. My driver was Exceptional!! Never rushed me, always concerned I was happy with the tour and very careful. Noobeeh is his name and I know I have not spelled it correctly.
The Jordan people are special and great hosts. You won't go worry booking the 4 star trip. Enjoy!!
