Great driver. Plenty of time to see Petra and more. Communication with driver was simple and easy. Would book again.
Absolutely perfect. The company was very responsive to all of my pre-booking questions and very clear on all of the details. Our driver Murad was more than we could’ve possibly asked for. Such a gentleman. Always prompt. We hired a driver only but he was so much more! His English was amazing and he knew so much about the country. His experience showed: He would drop us off at a church and say “see you in an hour” and that’s exactly how long we would want. He was accommodating and a joy to be with. When he heard that we had enjoyed scuba diving in Egypt, he advised us that there was good diving in Aqaba and arranged a shore dive for us. He was a safe, courteous driver, and even though I am sometimes a nervous passenger, there were no issues at all.
We approached Jordanian Private Tours with our own itinerary for a 4 day private tour. They were very open to fulfilling our needs and also gave some additional advice to ensure we had the best experience. Overall they were brilliant to deal with and arrange our private tour. Our private driver was Fares and he picked us up from the airport taking us to our hotel in Amman for the first night. Next day our fantastic tour started with Fares. Over the next 4 days we visited Wadi Rum, Petra, Madaba, Mt Nebo the Dead Sea and then back into Amman for viewing of the major sites, before heading back to the airport. Fares was a great driver, but more. He offered do much interesting information about what we were viewing and experiencing. He was full of knowledge and experience. Not only that, he was a great guy, very easy to interact with and enjoy his company. If you want to see Jordan in style and comfort without the big bus tours, you need to use Jordanian Private Tours. We very highly recommend Jordanian Private Tours and if you want a great tour, ask for Fares.
We chose private transportation to Petra, to ensure we got there efficiently and quickly as possible. Our driver Murad, chose the non freeway which cut 20 mins off each way which we greatly appreciated. It took about 2.4 hours each way. He picked us up at the Kempinski Dead Sea and we were off.
We had great experience and nice driver to escort us from Amman for few days. Our driver is Mr. MURAT D, since first place he pick up us really give the best guidelines, We really enjoy it with him. The great for the package also good, JPTT give the great itinerary to us. We stay at Wadirum with nice camp and food not to bad. Overall thanks to arrange the short trip we have.
Wow! What an awesome experience! Our driver (Khalil) and our guide were fantastic. Petra was even more amazing than I imagined.
Petra is spectacular but without a guide you cannot understand its history One of the seven wonders of World.
I went to Jordan to visit nice places our driver Waleed is an amazing man, very good at his job, happy and adds to the mood of the day which is already an amazing experience! I'd really recommend booking through him!! 00962 799952938
Great Transfer Super Knoledgable and Friendly Guide - Very Detailed Tour - My Guide was one of the people who helped excavate the site.
The driver was amazing, on time, fast and safe drive to and from Amman. Plenty of rest stop opportunities along the way to stretch and shop while making the long journey to Petra. Must book for a private group as it takes the stress out of everything
