About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- H7104PYalexk0 contributionsGreat company! Definitely recommend them!This is definitely one of the best companies in Jordan and I highly recommend booking a tour with them. They were able to show me the best parts of Jordan including the Dead Sea, Petra, and Wadi Rum. If you have a chance go with Saed. He is very knowledgeable and professional driver and he helped me a lot during the tour. He will answer all of your questions, help you with photos, and arrange everything for you.Written March 13, 2024
- dafosa0 contributionsPeivate Wadi Rum dessert tourVery professional company, from the office staff to the chauffeurs. Shoutout to Harlene who answered all my questions and made all travel anf tour arrangements. A heartfelt thank you to Tayseer who drove me from Petra to Wadi rum and back. Upon sensing my apprehension being with a non english speaking driver in the dessert tour, he volunteered to accompany me and acted as a guide/interpreter. To cap the splendid day he dropped me on the dot at a fantastic viewpoint with one of the best sunsets ive witnessed. I strongly suggest getting a guide from them as against hiring a local so called “official” guide in Petra whose main objective it seems is to get it over and done with as quickly as possible and move on to the next tourist. Will definitely ise their services again when touring this region.Written March 11, 2024
- B6595HXbillf0 contributionsWonderful service and an amazing trip!Fantastic service! Every hotel and tour booked for us was amazing. Our driver, Tayseer, was incredibly helpful and always on time. We will be coming back to Jordan. We will use PN Tours again and recommend PN Tours to everyone who visits!Written March 9, 2024
- girtsd20160 contributionsAmazing 4-day tour with Tayseer - Amman, Petra, Wadi Rum, Aqaba!My friend and I did a great 4-day tour with Tayseer and had the opportunity to see many of Jordan’s treausres. Tayseer was truly amazing and extremely helpful with everything - I 100% recommend to travel with him when exploring the country! We had great fun, all the places were beautiful and can’t wait to visit again!!! ❤️❤️❤️Written February 24, 2024
- N5054MCsebastianb0 contributions4 days in Jordan in FeburaryWe travelled from Amman (0,5 days) to Petra (1 full day) to Wadi Rum (1,5 days) and then Aqaba. We had a great time with our driver Tayseer, he is very knowledgeable about Jordan, its people and society and speaks great English. The car was also very comfortable. He was also very supportive in arranging other parts of our trip (communicating with hotels, tour guides and the camp site). 5 stars! Very satisfied, would love to come again!Written February 24, 2024
- williambG7633XU0 contributionsPerfect Petra visitBoth Oqba who drove us to Petra and Ali who guided us around were highly knowledgeable. We learned more about the history of Jordan than any other country we visited. The natural beauty of Petra was amazing. Ali took us off the normal tourist path to show us the colorful rock formations. He is also an expert photographer and took outstanding pictures. Our only regret was out inability to stay longer to see the other beautiful sites in Jordan.Written February 21, 2024
- K7324AYmarcor0 contributionsGreat way to explore Amman if you have a short layoverI had a 8 hour layover in Amman and wanted to tour the city before continuing my trip. My guide Oqba was great. He spoke perfect English, taught me about the history of Amman and Islam. He was very calm and took me to King Abdullah Mosque, the citadel, the old city (theater, market) and dinner in a fantastic restaurant. He had me try sweets and traditional food. Also the agent Christine was awesome. Not expensive at all. I really enjoyed the tour and I highly recommend it.Written February 8, 2024
- 801evin_0 contributionsPN tours JordanIt was an amazing trip! Jordan is fascinating and the tour was excellent. Our guide and driver, Muhammad Masoud, was very friendly, kind and helpful. We enjoyed it a lot, it was an unforgettable trip for us. Thank you for everything♥️Written February 7, 2024
- muniaghani140 contributionsAmazing JordanI had an amazing tour of Jordan with my father at the first week of January. Alhamdulillah, can't thank Allah enough for the blessings. We visited Amman, Petra, Wadi Rum, Aqaba and Dead Sea. Unbelievable beauty of nature, ancient ruins, sites of Islamic history - all together Jordan was one of a kind experience for me with the best possible company - my father and the most friendly and caring guide Saber.Written January 31, 2024
- RobinV17560 contributionsWonderful PetraI visited Petra and it was even better than I expected. A little bit cold in January, but that did not bother me because we were walking most of the times. This is a wonderful experience that I would like to recommend to everyone. I was accompanied by Mr. Oqba and that was the icing on the cake: I really enjoyed the interesting conversation we had, you can feel that he's a great and warm person. Cheers!Written January 27, 2024
- SarahPres0 contributionsAn unforgettable adventureI visited Amman, Ajloun, Jerash, Dead Sea and Petra with Tayseer via a private tour and impressed is an understatement. Tayseer is my favourite guide. He is kind, knowledgeable, flexible with programmed activities, happy to go at our pace, went the extra mile and always made me feel welcome. I have no hesitation in recommending Tayseer. He has left big shoes for other guides to fill. Our visit is one I will always remember.Written January 22, 2024
- naomibR7320MR0 contributionsAn amazing experienceWhat a wonderful adventure we had. We went from bustling Amman, to to the Roman ruins of Jerash to the dead sea and all the way to ancient Petra. Each stop held a new wonder to see, and there was lots of new information to learn. The people are friendly and welcoming. We are 2 female travellers, and we felt safe and welcomed everywhere we went. Our guide/driver Tayseer was the best. He was so patient with us and our many questions, and helped us to experience Jordan in its many wonders. From mud baths at the dead sea, to the best local places to eat, he was 5 stars all the way and I would highly recommend him to future travellers. We found Jordan a safe and enjoyable place to visit, and would happily come back in the future to experience more of its treasures. I would recommend the trip to anyone wanting to have a great experience.Written January 19, 2024
- Paolo Z0 contributionsAmazing Jordan TourJordan is so beautiful and has so much to offer. We had an amazing time here. A big, big thank to our driver, guide and friend Tayseer. He was fantastic and provided many details about Jordan and the places we saw. All we had to do was enjoy our time 😄. We felt safe and in very good hands during the whole tour. We can highly recommend this country and this company to anyone.Written January 9, 2024
- jordanpJ2473JU0 contributionsExceptional Company, whom are now our friends - I trust PNT with my money, my family, and my memories.This review is 100% positive an a testament to the exceptional quality of Petra Night Tours (PNT) but I’ll provide the review in two parts: one brief for those scrolling and one lengthy for those interested in the details. Without a doubt, book with PNT. I travel regularly, including Africa for work, but when it is a family holiday – there can be a nervousness or stress about the quality for the experience. I can attest that PNT is 100% worth it and an exceptional value. I trust PNT with my money, I trust them with my family, and I trust them for delivering an experience beyond what you hoped. We emerged with countless memories, but more importantly with our guides as our friends whom we stay in contact with, and emerged with a desire to return to Jordan soon, and would without a doubt do it with Maria in the office and Tayseer as our guide and driver. I spent a lot of time looking at reviews to select a company, and I 100% agree with the positive reviews of PNT. Most importantly, Maria in the office and PNT listened to us (about our desires and wants in experiences) and provided exceptional and timely communication during the itinerary phase, booking, and even travel with the contact names, phone numbers. Tayseer, in Jordan, is second to none and is now a friend and part of our family. His warm personality, his knowledge, and his desire to make your experience in Jordan is beyond exceptional. We are truly excited and anxious to return one day soon to our friends and a country we loved – Jordan. I should also note, we used PNT to find us guides and tours in other countries in the region as we continued our trip – and the services they found were equally good, and PNT has earned my trust with their vetting and quality and communication. Now, for the details of what you can expect. I reached out to Maria with a few ideas for an itinerary, mixing in places I’ve previously have been – but wanting to take the family and also trying to find some new sites and experiences for myself as well. Within 24 hours she had returned with a draft itinerary and budget, listening to what our interests were – and even adding an a cooking class for the family. We exchanged emails over the next 3 days fine tuning the plan, and then booked with ease! Upon arrival, we were greeted by Tayseer at the airport (whom is now our friend). He helped us quickly navigate the airport and took us to our hotel – standing by to then take us to dinner that evening. The following day Tayseer was joined by our other guide Freddie – who took us to the three dessert castles, lunch in Old Amman and then the Amman sites including the Citadel and ampitheatre. The two of them were not only fun to spend the entire day with, Freddie is exceptional knowledgeable of the history and sites, but we enjoyed our time conversing and traveling with them just as much. The second day, Tayseer took us down to Petra, stopping at the Dead Sea multiple times for us – pointing out different opportunities for beaches and experiences. We never felt rushed, and he did a great job making sure we got the full experience – and even taking photos for us as well! Tayseer then took us to a roadside farm where we picked our own lunch and grabbed some homemade bread before continuing down to Petra. At Petra we were met by our guide there – who I can just say – wow! He knew his photography and was a great asset along our way – timing everything perfectly for the sunlight and photos. Little did I know, during this time – Tayseer was running around town – looking for a birthday cake to surprise me for my birthday later. 2.5 hours of guided tour in Petra was perfect, and then Tayseer stood by (even giving us a local phone, so we could keep him updated as to our timing on return) as we ventured out to the monastery on our own. Upon returning, we started the drive back where we stopped for dinner. During dinner, Tayseer had organized with my wife a birthday celebration for me at the restaurant – complete with “happy birthday” song and cake. It will undoubtably the most memorable birthday with our new friends! On our last day, Tayseer took us to the airport – and even parked and walked us in – showing us where we would return from our flight to Cairo (how to navigate getting our backs and checking back in a week later when we stopped over on our flight from Cairo to Amman, before returning to Washington, DC. PNT also coordinated our Egypt tours for our second part of the trip, which were just as equal high quality – from the airport escorts, drivers, guides and the timing of a perfect itinerary. We’re forever grateful and would recommend Petra Night Tours, our friends to anyone and look forward to a return to Jordan (soon!). Thank you again!Written January 1, 2024

I wanted to tack on a private two-days (one night) itinerary in Jordan at the end of a planned business trip. I contacted PN Tours after I saw them recommended in a guide book, and Mae Badua responded pretty much immediately with some detailed comments and ideas about possibilities - I was very impressed with her helpfulness and responsiveness.
I could have squeezed in Dead Sea and Wadi Rum, but after some discussion with Mae, I decided to concentrate on just Petra. Really enjoyed the trip, and it was nice to not rush Petra. Very happy too with my driver Saber - very pleasant and friendly, and we had some nice conversation!

Amazing trip! We went on a 6 day private tour as a family with 2 tweens. We covered all of the major sites from Amman, to the North of Jordan for spectacular views of Lake Tiberius, then south to Petra, Aqaba, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea.
Freddy was an amazing tour guide who tailored the experience to our pace and connected it all together. Syed was a great driver.
Would highly recommend for any family. They offer customized tours beyond what’s listed.

It’s hardly necessary to sing the praises of a visit to Petra, and it is everything, and more, that we’d been led to expect. No, this review is entirely about Petra By Nights Tours as a company. Travelling with my wife, adult daughter, and son-in-law we had an entirely too short visit to Jordan planned, only 4 nights, and we had decided beforehand to base oursleves in Aqaba for it’s proximity to Petra and Wadi Rum. What we envisioned and hoped for was a pickup at 6am at our hotel in Aqaba with a driver and guide. Multiple efforts beforehand, through multple tour companies, in the US, Israel and Jordan all proved fruitless and frustrating as most transports/groups leave from Eilat when coming to Petra from Israel, and they are geared to larger groups. By luck I found Petra by Night while in Tel-Aviv, contacted them, and the whole experience was top-notch. Ms. Harlene in the Amman office responded to our email request promptly, was very responsive in terms of adjusting the price quoted as we had ‘Jordan Passes’ (highly recommended, btw), and totally clear about our plans. Sure enough, our driver, Ali, was waiting in our hotel lobby promptly at 6am. He was more than pleasant, well informed, had no agenda regards taking us to a ‘tourist stop’ coming or going, and arranged for a guide (unnecessary IMHO) once we arrived at the entrance to the Petra site. Moreover, when he encountered van trouble which delayed his meeting us at the end of the day, a quick phone call had a substitute driver there in short order, with Ali meeting us half-way back to Aqaba beside himself with apologies. In short, this company deserves the highest possible praise in terms of their providing service, being flexible, honest and totally delivering on the wants/needs of their clients. Thank you Petra nights, for a memorable experience; I look forward to a return visit to Jordan, one of longer duration, and you will be my first contact when planning that trip!

We had a fantastic 4 days tour of Jordan. First day was Mt. Nebo and mosaic map followed the crusader castle.
Second day we spent almost the whole day in Petra with a personalised tour guide and had late lunch (mansaf) at Mom's Recipe.
Third day we went to Wadi Rum with another personalised tour guide in the desert then we drove to Dead Sea
Fourth day we went to Citadel and Roman theatre in Amman
The tour guide was dedicated to us at most critical times. There were also appointed guide for each important sites eg Petra and Wadi Rum.
The timing suits our routine and each journey was performed in a timeframe acceptable to us.
We had a guide which could entertain us in terms of cuisine in Jordan. We had the best lamb BBQ and mansaf rice.
Overall this trip was one of my best holiday.
