    Trip to Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea, Amman City with Mr. Nabil!!

    Let’s start from the arrival pick up. Mr. Nabil welcome us with a big, warm smile. He advise us some important spots that we should visit in a short trip of 2nights/ 3 days. We visited Amman city, archaeological site and went for some shopping. 2nd day we went to Petra and Wadi Rum. Mr. Nabil was there to advise us for everything we should know. And he was always flexible even when we were late. Mr. Nabil organised everything, assisted with everything, we didn’t check our phones even one time! So, comfortable! Petra is amazing destination like a fairy tale. After Petra we went to Wadi rum we did jeep safari, and Nabil show us the best , magical spots ! We drunk the traditional Bedouin tea and relaxed in the sunset. Important to mention. Mr. Nabil is a great photographer, except concierge and personal driver ! We had the best photos ever ! 3rd day we went to Dead Sea ! Mr. Nabil did again his magic. With a lot of surprises ! But I will not say everything and I will not spill the tea, because you really need to check it your self ! Thank you Mr. Nabil for everything, our trip would not be the same without you!!

    Amazing trip in Jordan, thanks!

    We had an amazing time in Jordan thanks to our guide, Alaa Manasra. We were a group of four friends traveling together, and we spent three days exploring Amman and the surrounding areas, with the trip passing through the Dead Sea, down to Petra, and into the desert of Wadi Rum before traveling back to Amman. Alaa is a truly friendly, experienced, and knowledgeable guide. He made our experience in Jordan special, always available to explain local traditions, bring us to amazing viewpoints, and recommend great local spots to eat. What we appreciated most was his perfect balance of being present and on time while respecting our private time as friends—which made the entire experience even more comfortable and relaxing. Having covered over 1,000 kilometers together, we can highly recommend Alaa and Retaj Jordan tours.

    5 Days in Jordan with family, visiting Petra, Wadi Rum, Wadi Dana and the Dead Sea

    I organized my 5-days trip to Jordan with my two sons at the last minute. Looking at reviews online and its website, I decided to contact Retaj. They quickly returned my email and whatsapp messages and organized the transfers according to my itinerary and hotels booking. Everything went smoothly and easy. Thanks a lot to Sukaina, Steven and, mostly, to Ahmed, our driver. You contributed to make our trip unforgettable. We love Jordan, the Jordanians, the Bedouins, everything. Visit Jordan on your own, totally safe. Peace

    Response from the operator: Dear sir, Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We’re truly honored that you chose Retaj for your last-minute trip to Jordan, and we’re thrilled to hear everything went smoothly. It was a pleasure assisting with your journey, and we’re especially happy to know that myself, Steven, and Ahmed made such a positive impact on your experience. Your kind words mean the world to us—and we couldn’t agree more: Jordan is a special place, made even better by its people. We hope to welcome you and your sons back again someday for more unforgettable memories. Warm regards,

    Don’t hire to self drive, call them instead

    I hired the car for a day tour of Jerash and Ajloun castle and Raed made it so easy and enjoyable that I decided to hire for another 3 days for the rest of my Jordan trip. Not only it is easier to hire than to self drive as most if signs are in Arabic, but you get to relax while you travel I went with Raed and now I have a friend for life. He is a safe driver and went above and beyond to make my trip memorable. Highly recommend !!!!

    Who is 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea best for?

    Is 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea good value?

    +

    It is a premium pick. It starts at $112, above the $89 typical for similar experiences in Amman.

    How much does 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea cost?

    +

    Prices start at $112 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amman usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Amman is not rushed.

    Is 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Amman, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Amman can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Amman and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3-Day Journey Through Shobak Castle, Petra, Wadi Rum& Dead Sea start and how do I get there?

    +

    What are the best things to do in Amman?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Amman experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Amman: Petra and Wadi rum Private/Group Full day Tour, Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea 4 Days 3 nights, From Amman: Private /Group Full day tour to Petra. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Amman?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Amman?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
