John was an amazing guide who took care of our every need! He speaks fluent English which was extremely helpful. He arrived on time and kept a great schedule. At the same time, he didn't rush us if we weren't quite ready to take off. He picked us up from our hotel in Amman and drove us to Petra where we had an amazing experience. After Petra, he took us to a restaurant nearby for lunch. He made us feel comfortable in knowing that every restaurant he was taking us to had good quality and clean food.
After Petra, we rode to Wadi Rum where we went on a sunset jeep tour. Then we were taken to our camp where we stayed the night. The next day, John picked us up and took us to have coffee at a beautiful scenic spot where you can also buy souvenirs. Actually he stopped at couple of places like this that had unique items that you don't find in town. From there, we drove to the Baptism Site where we stepped into the Jordan River. Throughout the entire trip, he made sure to help us capture special moments. He would take our camera and pose us in certain ways....like a professional photographer!
I had mentioned to John that I was looking to find a restaurant that served good Mansaf (traditional Jordanian dish) and he went out of his way on our return to Amman to take us to a restaurant that served amazing food. There were a couple of other additional things we were looking to do and items we wanted to get and he made sure we either obtained them or knew of where to go. He also was kind enough to let us know that if we have any questions or need any translations during our stay, we should reach out to him. If I could give him 10 stars I would! Highly recommend!
