We had a fantastic week in Jordan, thanks to our local specialist Samir and our driver and guide, Mohammad - the schedule was perfect and everything seamless, we couldn't have asked for anything to be better.

Jordan itself was as incredible as we had hoped, and Petra is one of those very special places, like the Taj Mahal that brings a tear to the eye when you see it for the first time.

We were nervous about the situation on the ground travelling at the time of conflict in the region but quickly realised this was a misapprehension on our part.

We would definitely recommend visiting Jordan and using Kimkim!

Hi Samir
I want to thank you for all the expert help, guidance and advice you gave me in planning our trip to Jordan. What an amazing country with so much history! The arrangements, timing and tours were perfectly coordinated from the time we were met at the airport with our visas until the time we left with so many incredible experiences in between like floating in the Dead Sea, exploring Petra by candlelight and sleeping in a yurt or bubble tent under the stars in Wadi Rum. We had a wonderful driver for the entire time - Abed Al Salam Alhaleq- and I think the very, very best guide in Jordan - Mutaz Moghrabi. You were wonderful to work with. You were always responsive and always giving insight into your country. Because of all your help, we had a wonderful trip. I Thank you so much. I would recommend you and KimKim to anyone who wants to travel to Jordan.

Amazing site but we got duped by someone saying to start at other end from little Petra. This is not worth it and you have to hike 2 hours to your destination even if you get the shuttle. The views are good but we were not prepared for the long walk. Just start at the main gate and you will see everything. The horses/ donkeys people are also a rip off don’t bother! I felt we paid to start from the other end and felt it was not worth it.

We opted for a custom tour with KimKim. Samir was our online contact; Mohammed was our driver for the week. Both made our trip to Jordan one of the books. Highly recommend them.

Samir was responsive (got back to us within a few hours) and patient with our various requests and preferences (it took us about two months on and off to finalize our trip). Mohammed was engaging, informative, and just as patient with us on the road; we never felt rushed with him.

Our week-long itinerary involved time in Amman, Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea. Samir finetuned our itinerary to our preferences, always answering our questions and making changes for our review without hesitation. We rarely travel the “meet us with a sign and take us around” style, but we did for this trip and all details were handled for us: hotel check-ins, guide intros, and excursion tickets. We didn’t have a single hiccup in 6 days and 650 miles of driving (even when we were late by an hour one morning).

We didn’t need the fanciest hotels as we planned to be out and about during our short week in Jordan. We wanted close proximity to attractions and Samir honored our wishes even if he thought other hotels would have been more comfortable, which we appreciated. In Amman, the Art Hotel is 3-star, so manage your expectations. It’s in the heart of King Faisal Square and close to the downtown attractions. Staff was always pleasant. For Petra, we stayed at the Petra Palace Hotel in Wadi Musa, which was a bit dated but offered amenities such as two pools, spa with massage, full-service bar, and breakfast. It was within walking distance to Petra and we would stay there again even if it isn’t the shiniest hotel (we woke up late another morning and got to breakfast at closing, but they still set us up with a table by one of the pools). Our splurge was a Martian tent in Wadi Rum at Mayazen Rum Camp. We had all the modern amenities: AC, nonstop running hot water, and even an outdoor hot tub. We even got to see sunrise from our bed through the panoramic window. The staff was also pleasant and attentive. The restaurant served good traditional and foreign food; we always had more than we could eat.

Amman is a lively city with a lot to see and do from tourist sites to restaurants, cafes, and shops. We love a good shisha when in the Middle East and Amman had two great options at Faisal Cafe and Nara Cafe. We wish we had more time there. Petra is a bit touristy and the local vendors can take away from the experience, but it is hard to deny its allure. We went to Petra at Night and despite mixed reviews, we recommend going. How often can you walk The Siq at night underneath the moon and stars? Check out Old Street Cafe on a side street off Tourism St, excellent food and service. The Dead Sea is a must do, but we went in early September and it was hot (100 degrees - the air temperature, not the water). Hope you’re lucky and a tour bus (or several) don’t arrive at the same time you are there. The surge of people all trying to get their floating pictures can get annoying, but fortunately for us, it was too hot out for most people. Still, where else can you float without even trying? Wadi Rum was our favorite stop. We stayed two nights and did a sunset 4x4 tour and a 1/2-day 4x4 tour… two different experiences you should have. We also opted for a sunset camel ride for our last night and it was surreal to cross the red sands of the Wadi Rum with the landscape on the horizon. We appreciated how beautiful, and peaceful, our planet can be. All of this arranged through KimKim.

Thank you, KimKim, Samir, and Mohammed!

During our trip it was really smooth-sailing from the time we arrived. Our driver Anis picked us up and was our driver throughout. Anis was so patient with us, knowledgeable about Jordan and the place we were visiting, advising us on the recommended places to visit and when not to, he knew his background and history of the places which really enhanced our visit. We had a little set-back due to some unforeseen circumstances but Anis continued to be patient and advised us accordingly, supporting us and being so resourceful during these set-backs. He was a lovely company to be with throughout our trip, without being too intrusive too :)

Just a side note, myself and my husband realised that the food in Jordan is very salty (more at the local restaurants in malls etc., hotel food and some restaurants was totally okay), which according to my friend who stayed in Jordan before, it is normal as they like it this way. We had some stomach issues because of this, but again Anis was able to accommodate and take us to the pharmacy etc.

Overall, loved our honeymoon. Will be a great memory for us! ^^ Really appreciative and grateful towards Anis and Samir :)

Ohh we had a really good time at Petra, it's totally different to seeing and hearing about it online. At it being our first official activity during our trip, it really boosted morale after our long flight especially. There was lots of walking but our guide was able to captivate us a lot with the history of the place. We took a private guide and it felt more personal so we liked that. At the end, we got a donkey ride back to the treasury (because it was a long walk) so that was a nice experience too.

The lady at reception raised her voice and reluctant when we asked help in printing our boarding pass. When no one at Room Service was available to get our order, we called Reception to help. A gentleman said he will call them to call us. No one called us. We just decided to get food somewhere else when we would have preferred to stay in and get rest before our flight.

We were booked with this hotel which is highly rated but when we turned up, they tried to bunk us off into a guest house type of room in a dingy part of the hotel.

Our trip was great , made easy through Kim Kim who we didn’t know about prior to the trip and simply booked online with them.

Highlights were Jaresh (a surprise as we didn’t know anything about it), Petra (there is plenty of time to hike to the Monastery (definitely worth doing) and the Dead Sea (the Movenpick resort is an amazing resort too), plus our driver Mohammed who was particularly knowledgeable, kind, accommodating and a safe driver.

The only negative was the accommodation in Wadi Rum- mazayen camp which was very run down and disappointing. Described as luxury but far from it! Everything was falling apart. Personally, I would give Wadi Rum a miss and do an extra night at Movenpick Dead Sea.

Mazayen Rum Camp

Old, run down and grubby. The jacuzzi didn’t work and the front of it was propped up by a chair. The toilet seat was askew and the bathroom was old, with missing grout and grubby. Light bulbs not working and the bed was very old and battered. Far from luxury as advertised. Maybe school camp level at best. Would definitely delete wadi rum from the itinerary and have an extra night at the Dead Sea’s Movenpick resort

The highlights of our trip were the Dana to Petra hike trails where we were looked after by Mohammed and his team. The landscape was stunning but the team knowledge, catering and guiding was top class in terms of service. We also loved our trip to Wadi Rum Bedouin camp where Suleiman was a lovely guide for us. Our driver, Yazeed was great too.
Jordan is a wonderful and hospitable destination.

All the comforts in the wild and remote beauty of the desert. Simple but lovely and friendly service from Suleiman and all the staff at this site. Set in a stunning location, plenty to do while also allowing great chill time around the camp fire or admiring the stars from comfort of the veranda. Great food and super clean.

My wife and I had a wonderful time in Jordan. Our driver, Sharif, went above and beyond in making sure our trip was everything we wanted it to be. In addition to driving, explaining the sites along the way, and keeping track of all the logistics, he took care of any problems that came up. We had a snag involving our baggage at the airport and I'm not sure what we would have done without his help figuring it all out. Samir at Enjoy Jordan was also always available if we needed further assistance with anything.

Jordan is a fascinating country with unparalleled historic sites, natural beauty, and friendly people. Sharif's love for the country was plain to see, and the value we were getting was obvious when we compared our experience to that of the dozens of people getting out of the big buses. I highly recommend working with him if you do decide to make the trip.

This was a unique and enjoyable experience, although it was hotter than expected due to the lack of air conditioning. Despite this, the option of sleeping on the roof at night was a nice touch. It's really an awesome place, I'd just advise people to go in the cooler months.

This is our second amazing trip with KimKim. We had a spectacular five days in Jordan exploring Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea. In particular, we really enjoyed hiking in Wadi Rum with Ahed, our Bedouin host. Ayuob was a great driver and guide as well teaching us about the culture and history of Jordan along the way. Big thanks to Mariam for planning such a memorable trip for us!
