    We had a nearly perfect tour of Jordan purchased through Tour Radar. It was advertised that there would be a tour size of 10-15 people, but when we arrived at the airport and met the tour guide we were informed that it would in fact be a private tour with just my husband, myself, and the tour guide! So we had a very personalized itinerary and lots of attention. Plenty of space in the van, and we got to have one on one conversations the whole week and learn so much from our guide. He was the consummate professional, meeting us in our hotel lobby every morning. He gave wonderful recommendations throughout the trip. The itinerary was perfect - not too much per day, nor too little, but perfect action-filled days including every major attraction we could think of in Jordan. We felt perfectly safe the entire trip, too. This was my first tour booked through Tour Radar, and I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend them. I will definitely book through them again, based on this experience.

    We enjoyed our time in Jordan and our many unique experiences! The most important thing to note was how safe we felt traveling around the country. The main highlight for us was seeing Petra. The crowd sizes were small due to the political climate in the area, but that worked out to our advantage. Another highlight was getting the opportunity to float in the Dead Sea. Other stops included Aqaba, Dona, Jaresh and Wadi Rum. While Wadi Rum was nice, you should know most of the interesting activities take place in the spring. If you have ever thought of traveling to Jordan, we highly recommend doing so!

    There were days when the itinerary was a little rushed so our group missed out on some events I would have liked to have participated in, but overall, what I did experience was very memorable and satisfying for an 11 day tour.
