Mohammad was a great guide and went above and beyond to make the tour informative. He bought us water and snacks and arranged for a couple other extra experiences. We also always felt safe. I highly recommend doing the all inclusive tour. It covered all of the admission fees and the resort for the Dead Sea visit was lovely. It had a huge, very nice buffet lunch. Since I am a woman, it really would not have been possible for me to go to the beach comfortably without having that resort access. My only advice is to be cautious about the offered extra stops. We stopped at a workshop to see how the famous mosaics in Jordan are made, but I wasn’t expecting a high-pressure salesman to try to talk me into buying a mosaic for several hundred JD. A similar thing happened at a shop selling Dead Sea products. There are plenty of places all over Jordan with extremely pushy shop people, including the baptism site, so there’s really no need to make those stops.

We LOVED Mr. Mint (his nickname bc his name means 'mint' in English). He was so wonderfully welcoming and friendly the entire day. We had a bad experience with a different company but R&H Vip Transportation really took care of us after expressing we were scammed by another company. Mr. Mint shared information about all the stops and surrounding areas and history, which was lovely. Be aware for dead sea there is an extra charge to use the resort if you do not choose "lunch and all inclusive" so have cash on you if you choose transportation only. Mr. Mint was very patient in explaining this to us and changed my mind about coming back to Jordan. We are American and felt VERY SAFE with Mr. Mint. I recommend choosing the lunch with all inclusive and book directly if you can to avoid 3rd party fees if you are able. Either way, DEFINITELY BOOK WITH R&H VIP TRANSPORTATION FOR AN AMAZING LIFE EXPERIENCE YOU WONT REGRET!

It was a spectacular experience. Raed picked me up at the appointed time and understood if I needed more time to prepare. We started the tour and he clearly explained the importance of each point and told me to take all the time I needed to visit each place on my own. In addition, Raed offered a very pleasant conversation and allowed me to learn more about the culture and customs of the Jordanians. It was truly an excellent experience, thanks to Raed's excellent service. I recommend it 100%.

Shadi was amazing in explaining all the details and history about the sites and of Jordan and gave me some recommendations of things to do as well. The baptism site tour took a while but this is due to the external guide at Bethany Beyond. The trip gives you enough time to explore and you can have the evening to yourself to explore other areas of Amman if you have less time in Jordan like I had.

Fantastic tour. What a fabulous religious history these places possess. Shadi has been an exceptional guide throughout, very courteous, flexible and with amazing knowledge of local history. Highly recommended.
