    Outstanding day out from start to finish!

    This turned out to be one of the best travel days of my life. Fadi arrived at my hotel early - I was ready to go - so we got a nice relaxed early start. Communication the night before about pick up time had been excellent. Water and food/snacks were provided and we had plenty of stops during the drive there and back. The car was nice and modern with great air conditioning for the desert heat. After visiting the amazing, stunning Petra UNESCO site itself, I was able to make immediate contact with Fadi who then picked me up outside the Visitor's Centre a couple of minutes later. The conversation through the day was fantastic, friendly, informative, relaxed. It was like I was having a great day out with a long time friend. Thoroughly enjoyed the day, Petra was everything I thought it would be - incredible. Thanks again Fadi for an outstanding day. Highly recommended. Note - If you are using Jordan Pass for your ticket, you first go to the Visitor's Centre Ticket Office to get your included ticket. Then proceed to the actual entry gate where you will need to show your Passport and ticket for admission.

    Response from the operator: Hearing that this was one of the best travel days of your life means everything to us! Fadi takes genuine pride in nailing the details—from clear communication and cool comfort to making the drive feel like catching up with an old friend. Thank you so much for the glowing recommendation and for sharing that helpful Jordan Pass tip for fellow travelers!

    Brilliant trip to Petra and Wadi Rum!

    We had a brilliant trip to Petra and Wadi Rum with Anas - he’s so knowledgeable, kind and professional! He had so much knowledge of Jordanian history and really made sure we got the most out of our trip. Breaks were perfectly planned throughout and Anas made sure we were comfortable and safe!

    Response from the operator: So glad you had such a brilliant time! Anas takes real pride in sharing Jordan’s history, keeping the ride safe, and pacing the day just right. Thanks a ton for the wonderful words!

    Mohammad made our Jerash trip easy: on-time pickup, safe driving, great English, and a very comfy car

    Mohammad was an amazing driver for my trip from Amman to Jerash. He speaks really good English, and we had fun conversations on the way — he knows a lot about Jordan and shared interesting tips and stories throughout the drive. He picked me up at my hotel right on time (super punctual) and drove the whole day very safely. After dropping me off in Jerash, he waited patiently until I was done exploring, which made everything so easy and stress-free. He even stopped briefly to offer me a coffee, and he had water in the car too. The car was very comfortable and clean. I also heard from other guests that he drove them to Petra and Wadi Rum, and they were very happy as well. I would definitely recommend Mohammad, and I’ll call him again next time I’m in Amman!

    Response from the operator: We’re thrilled to hear that Mohammad’s punctuality, safe driving, and great conversation made your trip to Jerash so stress-free. It’s wonderful that his local tips and hospitality added that extra special touch to your day. Thank you for the high recommendation, and we look forward to welcoming you back to Amman!

    From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amman.

    How much does From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum cost?

    +

    Prices start at $87 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 From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum take?

    +

    Plan for about 13 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 From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 38 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 From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum?

    +

    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 From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 13-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum?

    +

    Around 13 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 13-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Amman: Full Day Petra Or Petra & Wadi Rum start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Amman within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    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, From Amman :Private or Group Full day tour to Petra, Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea 4 Days 3 nights. 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.
