"The trip was great! The tour leader and guide in Jordan were both really good so I commend The Adventure Travel Company for the recommendation of this trip. Petra was truly amazing!
Everything went smoothly and was enjoyable. Another group we saw was doing a similar trip with a different company but didn't have as good a leader and guide. In fact one guy from their group kept hanging out with us because of our guides!"
