Jordan Tours for Seniors
Ever wondered what Jordan feels like at a slower pace? Jerash still shows its Roman streets and theatres, while the Dead Sea is known for its heavy, salty water. In Petra, the Treasury stands carved into the rock, and desert camps near Wadi Rum host simple evenings. In Amman, local cooking offers a look at daily life.

What people love about Jordan Tours for Seniors
- Passage to Petra - 6 days
Great tour of Jordan!
- Best of Jordan Tours 7 Days - Discover Jordn In-Depth Petra, Dead Sea & Wadi Rum
We had a wonderful tour of Jordan with Look at Egypt tours Our guide, Murad, is a true ambassador for Jordan and is very knowledgeable and open to sharing everything with us. The tour in Jordan fill of activities and you should know that you will walk a lot. This was a great overall tour of Jordan, and all those we came in contact with as a part of this tour were lovely and hospitable. Our guide is a great asset to Look at Egypt tours and hopefully that will be shared with him. Thank you Murad and Look at Egypt tours staff we interacted with on this tour.
- Totally Jordan - 8 Days
Every part of the tour went to schedule. The transfers on time. The itinerary gave an excellent view of Jordan past and present. Tge tour guide known simply as "G" was fantastic. His knowledge was great, he was empathetic to all participants and helped people if they were struggling. The hotels were good standard. My only negative at PETRA I would have preferred if you had the option to prepay and had a choice to use Golf cart from the entry to the foot of the monastery. One couple paid quite a bit for the buggy as you don't have a choice. I too paid for horse and also donkey to take to top of monastery but once again you are left to negotiate. On the Go could have all those costs as optional and alleviate stress as its a tough climb. As previously mentioned the visa situation could be clarified in your booking form as it is at times contradictory. All in all ON THE GO TOURS did everything as outlined in tour itinerary.
