Carmen Scholten
My passion are the local people of Jordan and I love to share this with you. The Jordanian culture is a very welcoming and peaceful, which makes that I love to live in this beautiful country. Together with you I'll create a wonderful holiday that fits all of your needs and those of your family or friends. I'm originally from Holland but I've been living in the Middle East and mainly Jordan for almost 8 years.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I regularly visit different places in Jordan to keep up to date. This means that you can ask my anything about the country or special activities. And if I don't know about it, I have a team of wonderful travel specialists who do. My specialties are diving holidays (Me and my husband also run a dive center in Aqaba), responsible tourism, yoga holidays and hiking holidays. But mostly I create customized itineraries based on your wishes. "
How did you get involved in travel?
"I studied cross cultural management and sustainable entrepreneurship, not knowing that I would end up in tourism in Jordan. After my studies I left for a month long trip to and through the Middle East. That's when I fell in love with Jordan. From day one I've been involved in the travel industry in Jordan. This has resulted in having my own tour company in this surprising country. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"I've been brought up traveling around the world. I'll never forget the day I went into the rural areas of Gambia but I'll also never forget that one holiday on where I met my husband! "

Feb 18 - Feb 22, 2020

Where do I start? I stumbled upon Kimkim while researching a trip to Jordan. With nothing to lose I entered my wish list for the journey and thought no more about it, except that maybe it would be too expensive.
What a surprise. I was contacted by Carmen Sholten at in2jordan who helped me refine my wish list into something more practical for the time available. My questions were not treated as too silly, no request for added extras too difficult and I felt like I was the only client going to... read more

Dear Alan,
all the staff is so thankful and happy about your kind words, I wil especially pass your words to Hasan! From my side, it has been a pleasure to organize the trip for you, Monica and Joseph; your enthusiasm for this special country you have already visited in the past and that you want to share with your family this time has been the perfect start to organize your trip.
We hope to see you in Jordan again!
Many thanks for travelling with In2Jordan!

Everything went according to plan!
Thank you for making our trip to Jordan seamless and enjoyable. All the local guides/ drivers were so friendly and wonderful. Shout out to Hassan, the main driver who met us at the airport until he dropped us off in Petra.
Although I know I paid a little more for this trip booking through a travel agency (rather than booking everything myself), it certainly saved me time that I did not have to spend planning. Would highly recommend for Jordan.

Dear Sara, thank you for your kind and overall objective review!
I will pass the word to our drivers, especially Hassan, and to local guides. It has been a pleasure to organise your trip especially because you enjoyed it and it made you save time, holidays should be never a source of stress :)
We hope to have you and your husband here in Jordan again

All of the guides were incredibly accomodating and lovely. Hasan in particular was delightful. It would have been nice if a bit more commentary was volunteered. The site where we stayed in the desert or Wadi Rum could have had slightly cleaner bathrooms, but it was generally wonderful and a glimpse into an entirely different world.

Dear Catherine, thank you for taking time in writing this review and for your kind words for Hasan, he will be happy to hear that!

What a fantastic trip! Carmen put a perfect plan together for our family of four, accommodating for all that we had asked for. We had an incredible guide, Khadra, take us through Bethlehem and Jerusalem. She made the trip so much more valuable than we could have done on our own. She gave us personal stories, histories, and my kids (ages 6 and 8) loved her so very much--she was able to make it adult AND kid friendly (not an easy task). The country of Israel/Palestine is beautiful and full of... read more

Jordan was lovely, the locals and other people we met were very friendly and interesting to talk to.

May 15 - May 19, 2019

Overall, we were really pleased with our trip to Jordan. The itinerary suggested by Carmen took into account our interests, while also connecting us with some experiences we wouldn't have thought of on our own.
We really enjoyed meeting Nile, who was our hiking guide in Petra, and enjoyed the iftar with his family. Petra was, of course, a highlight of the trip, but Wadi Rum was also amazing, and floating in the Dead Sea was an incredible experience!
Things that could have been improved: We had a number of different drivers, which was sometimes a bit confusing. The hotels were just okay.

Dear Adam, thank you for your valuable feedback and for the additional detailed one by email! It has been a great help for improvements to have your careful and objective opinion.
We wish to have you again in Jordan, Inshallah!

The guide and car assigned to us for a VIP trip is inferior.
Guide has not taken the time to properly guide.
He was so rushed and quite annoying.
We had an excellent private trip in South America and this one was below standard the guiding etc.
Fortunately Jordan is a great country to visit.

Dear Robert,
Thank you for your feedback. This is valuable for us.
I am sorry you experienced this. However, there haven't been any VIP arrangements. You have paid for a private trip, but you and the group haven't been wanting to add any surcharges or supplements, to make the trip more comfortable, to save on costs. I do agree with you that the guide and transfer was not as you would have expected, but this is an overall problem in Jordan where we have to deal with government policies... read more

In Amman the driver Mustafa who pick me up at the airport and drove me to Petra was very friendly and helpful during the time he was with me I wish he would have been with me all the time.
Over all it was a great trip.

Carmen organized a perfect first trip to Jordan for us, and our driver, Azzam, could not have been a better ambassador for Jordan. We saw and explored wonderous sites and take home with us wonderful memories. The value for money spent was excellent. The hotels were good value with the exception of the Grand Hotel in Madba, which was sub standard. We highly recommend Carmen and KimKIm!

Dear Clinton!
Thank you so much for your kind review!! It was lovely to have you in Jordan and it's great to hear your kind words. The hotel in Madaba we are not using anymore based on your and others' experiences.

Everything was great especially our wonderful driver Mohammad who was very informative about the areas we were visiting as well as Jordan in general. We would have liked a bit more time at the dead sea as we arrived at 230 pm and left at 8am the next day. It was a wonderful experience except for our hotel in Petra , the Candles hotel is an absolute dump. We were initially given a room I wouldn't have housed a dog in and the replacement was much better but still way below the standard expected.

The trip was a blast. Our driver Amjad was personable and professional. My only critique is that there was not enough time to do this trip properly. If I did it again, I would skip the Wadi Rum and spend more time in the other locations. We spent a long time driving just for a couple of hours touring the Wadi Rum. Otherwise, it is a good overview of some of the spectacular highlights of Jordan.

A stand out negative- the Oscar hotel in Petra is not clean and is very tired and smoky. I asked for simple but clean. We ended up moving to the move pick for our second night. I would remove it from your hotel list.
We also had three different drivers all were nice and efficient but better to have one that can tell a few stories. They were very reliable and punctual though.
Otherwise Jordan was fantastic. Thank you.

Dear Peter,
Thank you for your feedback. I always appreciate to receive this to give better service during the trips for my future guest.

Thoughtfully prepared itinerary.
The driver allocated (Nedal) was helpful & advised on circuit and what to expect. Cover the northern side of Amman and the south but Petra just blew me off. What a site but it was beneficial because we engaged a guide at site.
Also incorporated some experience at Wadi Musa & Wadi Rum in the desert wilderness.
Finished the circuit with Aqaba & Dead Sea. Wish we had spent more time here
Be prepared for an active period if you want to enjoy.

Overall the trip was great and all of us think that Petra was the highlight. It was a rush, but that's because we had time constraints and entirely our doing. Carmen is a great planner and was in constant contact & communication before and during the trip. My thanks to her. The guides were good and knowledgeable. Najeeb may have been a little overbearing but overall no complaints. They were punctual and helpful.
The Art Hotel (Downtown) was a great location and good place to stay and get a... read more

We are back home after a great trip to Jordan, all thanks to Carmen. Carmen was always kind and quick in responding to our endless questions. She suggested an alternative itinerary to save some transfer time and it worked well for us. She was very accommodating to all our requests and changed the hotels to meet our requirements and budget. Our driver Audi was very cheerful, helpful and a kind person and we had a wonderful time with him. The whole itinerary was well planned, all the pickups... read more

My experience in Jordan would not have been what it was without my travel specialist, Carmen answering ALL my questions, working around my own plans etc., and just being accommodating! My driver, atef, was unbelievable. He was so gracious and kind and knew all the routes and gems of each place. My Bedouin guide, Ibrahim, who took us through Petra's backdoor to the monastery was wonderful. He was patient, helpful, and an overall great guide who showed us so many cool things along the way.

My trip to Jordan was everything and a bit more from what I have expected :)
Carmen has provided me with an amazing service from the beginning and she was great accommodating all the places I wanted to visit in only 5 days, thank you so much for that!
Amman was very interesting and I really enjoying walking around the Paris Circle and getting lost on Circles 1 and 2... also on day 2 going to Mount Nebo and Bethany beyond the Jordan was a great experience, and needless to say that a pit stop... read more

I'm the Head of Content at kimkim, and booked part of my recent trip to Jordan with Carmen from In2Jordan. A major goal of my trip was research for original article ideas, and my criteria was pretty challenging. Carmen did an amazing job of curating interesting, unique, and immersive experiences that lived up to my "off the beaten path" standards.
One of my absolute favorite memories is from my time in Wadi Rum, the desert wilderness in southern Jordan. I was originally scheduled for an... read more

If I were to do this again,
I would want more information up front from the guide about what has been paid for already and what hasn't.

Dear Jason!
Thank you for your 5* review. It's always nice for me to receive feedback on the guides and how to organize things better. I hope I've inspired you to come back to Jordan again!

Wonderful country and nice people.
We enjoy a lot and our trip was a great experience.
Good organisation, maybe just one driver had been better as a new one every day !
Thank’s a lot !

Dear Myriam!
Thank you for your kind review. You've surely met a lot of different people on your trip, however we'll do our best to stick to one driver for future customers. Thank you for sharing this with me. I hope we've inspired you to come to discover more of what beautiful Jordan has to offer.

The trip was amazing. Carmen did a great job planning the excursion, she was always available to answer any questions or make last minute accommodations.
Akram was our guide for most of the trip. He was knowledgeable about all the sites we travelled to. Gave us lots of free time to explore. His english is impeccable but most impressive was his driving skills. Couldn't ask for a better guide.
Petra was unbelievable. We were there for 2 nights and 1 full day. If you like hiking I would recommend 2 to 3 days there. A lot more to see then just the treasury.
Overall the trip was 5 stars

Dear Graham,
Thank you very much for your kind review. It was my pleasure. All the best to you and your brother!

I booked this trip as a surprise for my husbands 40th birthday. Carmen was amazing in putting the itinerary together and answering all of my many questions, no question to stupid, ensuring it was a birthday to remember!
From Jerash to the Dead Sea we saw so many amazing sites with our driver Bashar nothing was any trouble!
For the birthday day itself we went to Petra which no words can describe it’s beauty and wonder! Followed by a night under the stars at Wadi Rum.

We just returned from our Petra/Wadi Rum trip and it was an outstanding experience. The entire 4 days were great - filled with many new tastes, mind-blowing sites, and relaxation. Working with Carmen was smooth and easy. Our driver - Mohammad Karajeh - went out of his way offering guidance, coffees, tastes of native foods, etc. He really added touches that made our trip so memorable. My only suggestion might be to offer a range for the tent stay in Wadi Rum...I believe we might have chosen a... read more

The trip planning had up and downs with regard to hotels. Carmen suggested the Movenpick as a 5 star option, but I had already seen that rooms were not available. She then came back with news that rooms were not available and suggested the option of the Hyatt Zamman as a 5 star option. Turns out it was not even a part of the Hyatt chain but just a local hotel claiming to be 5 star but certainly not of international standard. I had to demand WiFi in the room ( arranged finally after being told... read more

Dear Pheroze,
Thank you for your feedback. We always appreciate the opportunity to upgrade our services. Due to availability, the hotel you stayed in was the best option we could find for you. I would have loved to known about the driver right away so we could have taken action, just like we did when you contacted us about the hotel. We hope you had a lovely time in Jordan and inspired you to get visit this beautiful country another time.
Thank you for traveling with In2Jordan!

Thank you to Carmen who facilitated our first trip to Jordan. It eased our apprehensions knowing we have transports and guides to assist us in a foreign land. The recommendations to stay at the Wadi Rum Luxury Night camp, and accesss to the Dead Sea at Dead Sea Spa Hotel —spot on! The Backdoor hike to Petra’s Monastery from little Petra— incredible ! We are also grateful to our guide, Ibrahim whose personality and character, stands out amongst the many we have met.
Thank you again. Hope to be back soon.

Dear Gerelyn,
Thank you so much for your kind review! It was our pleasure to have you here in Jordan. I've passed on your message to Ibrahim together with some pictures. Looking forward to having you back in the country, showing you even more special places Jordan has to offer.

A fantastic trip to Jordan thanks to Carmen’s expertise and knowledge. It was busy but never too hectic as we saw the amazing sites. Wael, our driver and guide was easy going and friendly, as well as very punctual. He put some miles on that car shuttling us from Amman to Wadi Rum and back again! Petra of course had to be a highlight, just magical. I also loved the vastness and beauty of Wadi Rum and our friendly guide, Rashid. I think we may have been running out of energy towards the end,... read more

My overall experience with the travel arranged for me in Jordan was quite nice.

- all the drivers arranged for my pick-ups were professional, polite and kind. They made some calls for me on the way to the hotel and so on to make sure everything goes smoothly. I really appriciated that
Minus
- I feel like I didn’t get enough information about Jordan and all the destinations I was going to prior my trip. Carmen created Vamoos app for me for my itenerary, which was great, but I thought... read more

Dear Thanya.
Thank you for your review. I'm sorry that not everything was completely to your satisfaction, but please understand that we did all that was possible within your budget. And planning a driver or rental car would surely have made your trip more quick and comfortable, but also too expensive, so we hope you understand our situation. Maybe I've should have informed you better about this, my apologies.
