Petra and wadi rum
Petra has been a bucket list item of mine for a very long time and booking with Basil was the best choice I've ever made when it comes to tour guides. He made the experience better than i could ever imagine. I will 100% book with him again for all my jordan tours.

Amazing
From the moment I was picked up until our final drop-off at the airport, my Jordan tour was nothing short of extraordinary. Basil was knowledgeable, friendly, and deeply passionate about Jordan’s rich history and culture, which made every stop feel even more meaningful. The visit to the Dead Sea was surreal — floating effortlessly in its salty waters while taking in the desert landscape is something we’ll never forget. Petra was absolutely breathtaking; walking through the Siq and witnessing the grandeur of the Treasury up close felt like stepping back in time. Wadi Rum was another highlight — the stunning desert landscapes, 4x4 tour, and gazing at the gorgeous sky was indeed an unforgettable experience. Basil went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and immersed in local traditions along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience Jordan. The attention to detail, warm hospitality, and seamless logistics (including airport drop-off!) made it a truly stress-free and memorable journey. Highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone visiting Jordan!

Un 'avventura che ne vale 10 !!
It was a beautiful excursion from start to finish!! Petra is useless to describe its beauty and majesty, lunch was a buffet in a well-stocked restaurant and everything was very good. Then as a final prize, the driver Basil Nofal took me to an unknown place in the Wadi Rum desert and it was fantastic! I had the desert all to myself. His friend Yahya, who accompanied us, took many photos of me in strategic points that he knew and gave me unforgettable memories. Basil, in addition to being a good driver, is also a good man, very helpful, kind and attentive to my needs. He was precise and punctual and gave me a lot of advice and help. I highly recommend this tour to everyone, you will not regret it.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amman.
How much does Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman cost?
+
Prices start at $200 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 Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 9 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 Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman?
+
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 Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman?
+
Around 3 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Petra and Wadi Rum Tour from Amman 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.
