Reviews
Het was een hele zware trip maar het meer dan waard. De mensen in Jordanië waren erg vriendelijk. De gids was ook erg enthousiast
Petra em si é incrível, mas o passeio é demorado e cansativo demais, e tudo é enrolado, isso acaba cansando mais ........
It’s a very long day, planned out for you all you need to do is be ready! We were not advised to get Jordanian dollars but they did take Egyptian pounds at a made up exchange rate. The tour guide was very good at Petra but mumble on the coach so he wasn’t clear. The city itself is amazing just a shame you can’t go inside the temple. It very hot and along walk, so talk food and water !
The female coach lead (Alisa) allowed a man to threaten me and record me on the coach after he refused to take his seat forward and proceeded to be against my lap for the journey. Alisa lacked the common sense to figure out that if everyone reclined their seats it would be uncomfortable for most, particularly those at the back. Alisa continued to point in my face, whilst asking me to calm down, instructions better suited to herself. She informed me she “could do whatever she wants as she is in Egypt” - a strange comment to make. That being said Petra was wonderful and the English speaking guid
Excellent trip. It’s a gruelling journey from Sharm but well worth it. The guide was very good but we felt the tour was moving a bit slow as we wanted to complete the whole trail so we left the group and went on our own and then met the bus at the end. The hike up to the monastery is a killer but the view is stunning.
Esperienza coerente con tutto quello che c’è scritto sul sito, ben organizzata e con guide molto disponibili, simpatiche e formate. Non neghiamo che sia un tour faticoso, ma di certo ne vale la pena.
