Wonderful trip to Jordan and the best international travel experience I have ever had! Nada did an amazing job communicating with us for a couple of months and helping us plan our trip. She gave us an itinerary that matched the exact experience we wanted while still giving us the flexibility to change things around if needed. She was always prompt in responding to any messages and concerns we had before and during the trip.

Everyone we encountered in Jordan made our trip special. Our two drivers were great. Ali was very fun and interactive. He always knew the good places to stop for travelers and would always take a picture if needed. Khalid was exceptional and made our trip better in so many ways. He always gave us suggestions on ways we could make our trip better and probably knows the entire history of Jordan. In fact, he helped organize two excursions that weren’t even on our itinerary. We didn’t have Mount Nebo on our radar, but he was able to make it happen. I can’ t say enough on how great Khalid is and anybody that encounters him as a driver for Amani tours should consider themselves lucky.

Every tour guide we had that Amani set up was fantastic. The Wadi Ghuweir hike in Dana was a lot of fun and our guide Isaa went at a perfect pace for my girlfriend and I and was super friendly (and funny). Nada set up a dinner with a Bedouin family and it was a great experience. They were very welcoming and the food was delicious.

The accommodations in Jordan were great as well. In particular the Wadi Rum Luxury Night Camp and Dana Guesthouse were our two favorite. Both experiences were unique in that they offered great views from our room and had a wonderful staff. We also enjoyed Ajloun Cabins as well. The lone criticism I have from the trip is our stay in Amman. The Signature Hotel was the worst stay we had by far. The staff was unresponsive to our concerns about the air in our room after we made two phone calls. Additionally, the room and service were not up to par for a “4 star hotel”.

I can’t say enough about the great job the KimKim team and Amani tours did for our Jordan trip. It certainly is a once in a lifetime trip and Hasina and I thank you for making our vacation a special one.

Wadi Rum Night Luxury Camp

Wadi Rum

The best place we stayed in Jordan. Glamping under the stars was one of the most memorable experience we had from our trip. The room was spacious and clean and we surprisingly had a great shower and toilet in our bubble tent. Additionally the food was fantastic and we enjoyed the show that the chef and staff put on in the evening. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Great beach for getting into the Dead Sea. The room was just ok. Clean and inviting. But, we had a safe box in the room and it didn’t work even after we called for help. Everything here is overpriced too. You can’t even buy water downstairs. We had to call for room service where each bottle was 3 JD (very inefficient and expensive).

Wadi Ghuweir Hike

Dana

This was such a fun hike. Isaa was a great guide and made this a memorable experience. This is an all day hike and probably 8 to 10 miles according to our guide. It was a hard hike but we had read online about the difficulty so we were well prepared for the terrain. Anyone thinking about this hike should be in good shape as there are some climbing aspects involved. The driver had a lunch prepared after the hike that was absolutely delicious.

Hike from Little Petra to Petra

Jordan

This is an incredible hike that allows you to hike from little Petra to Petra via the backwards way through the mountains. Therefore you see the Monastery first and the Treasury last. It is a difficult hike, especially to get to the Monastery but we enjoyed it. This is apparently not a popular route because there was a little confusion with our driver that morning. He believed we were just seeing little Petra before being transported to Petra by car. In the future, I would suggest just making the drivers and staff more aware of this hike. Once we straightened out the confusion with the office (Nada helped us out immensely) the hike was wonderful and they set us up with a local guide that gave us a lot of good information about Petra.

We just returned from the Middle East, visiting Israel, Jordan and Egypt. Kim Kim handled the Jordan/Egypt portion. It was an amazing experience. We visited Wadi Rum (The Desert, with beautiful landscapes), Petra, and Amman. We were originally scheduled to go in March 2020, so of course that didn't happen. We had a whole itinerary laid out.

We just returned from the Middle East, visiting Israel, Jordan and Egypt. Kim Kim handled the Jordan/Egypt portion. It was an amazing experience. We visited Wadi Rum (The Desert, with beautiful landscapes), Petra, and Amman. We were originally scheduled to go in March 2020, so of course that didn't happen. We had a whole itinerary laid out. It was re-scheduled and canceled twice more due to Covid. During that time, Sarah, who was most helpful, left Kim Kim, and we were handed off to Nada. Nada worked so hard, dealing with airline schedule changes to change the itinerary. I believe this happened three different times, but every time, Nada came thru. Our driver in Jordan the first two days was Bayan, and he was funny and friendly and showed us the sites as we drove thru Jordan. We spent the first night in a Bedouin Camp in the desert, and while rustic, it was beautiful and everything we expected (including Air Conditioning and a full bath!) The next day we were taken to Petra where the sites are just incredible. Buildings carved right into the mountainside. We were escorted thru the Petra site with a guide named Basil, who was very friendly and learned, and explained how the people (The Nabateans) here lived and worked. Then we were driven to Amman, where because of flight delays, we asked the driver to show us a little of the city before taking us to the airport. He (Ali) was most accomodating, and we saw the Blue Mosque, and the Citidel, a fort built by the Romans 2000 years ago. Then we flew to Egypt

In Egypt, we were met at the airport, taken thru security and had a car (driven by Mustafa) take us to our hotel. We were supposed to have a dinner cruise on the Nile, but couldn't make it because of flight delays. No worries, Nada rescheduled it for the next night. Mustafa and our guide Ibrihim picked us up the next day and took us to the Pyramids, Sphinx and the Egyptian Museum of Civilization. A wonderful place with many artifacts some as old as 35000 years. It also had mummies, some were 5000 years old. An Ibrihim explained it all. Very cool. That night we had our dinner cruise on the Nile, which was a lot of fun.

The last day we saw the Alabaster Mosque and the Hanging Church, and learned of their historical significance. Another wonderful day. At midnight, Mustafa was back to pick us up and take us to the airport.

The things to take away from this is
1. For 2+ years and two local specialists, Kim Kim organized and re-organized the perfect tour designed just for us.

2. The Drivers and Guides were friendly, kept us safe, kept us informed to changes along the way, and truly added to the value and enjoyment of our trip. We feel most fortunate that we had them with us.

3. Most of all Nada, our specialist was a great asset. She helped us with finalizing things, suggesting changes, and setting everything up. And as I said this was over the course of 2+ years.
Everyting worked. We were never stuck, and we always had someone with us.

We HIGHLY recommend Kim Kim Tours, and Nada in particular. We will certainly use them again

We had an absolutely wonderful time in Jordan thanks to Nada’s careful planning and our wonderful driver Jamal! I provided a list of what we wanted to do and see and Nada built the perfect itinerary and took care of all of the planning and booking.

Jamal was our driver for the entire trip and picked us up at the border. He was very prompt and so kind. He made sure we were always comfortable and well taken care of. He even went above and beyond and bought us fresh spices to take home and cook with.
5 stars for the entire trip and wi would highly recommend booking with KimKim!

I booked this trip in 2018 and was never given the option to be refunded so our family moved forward with Kim Kim and booked the trip for this summer as an addition to visiting family in Israel.
The tour was well organized but not clearly explained to me and the border crossing was confusing and exhausting to say the least. I think a step-by-step run down of how the crossing works and all the check points would be helpful. When I got we finally crossed from Israel into Jordan and meet the driver Ackhram we were informed that one person from our group had been left off the paperwork this delayed us an additional 2 hours at the border. This was not corrected when we returned 4 days later and had an additional delay of 2 hours. Once in the Van we got to meet the driver who I found RUDE and OFFENSIVE. Within our 1st hour together I was informed that the "United states faked the moon landing" mind you I had 2 Aerospace engineers in the van with me. I was told America created Isis and that Donald Trump was a great business man. I find both of those statements highly offensive. He was aggressive with his misguided facts and argued with me on my vacation about these items for well over an hour. He only stopped when I asked him to pull over so we could call the company and request a new driver. I opted just to let this go as we were so behind due to the border crossing delays. Ackhram was on time everyday and we did do our full schedule that I was happy about. I wasn't happy when Ackhram told us not to buy items in Petra that he would take us to a great shop with lots of options. This turned out to be a gas station with tacky items nothing that you couldn't get anywhere in Jordan. It was very clear that our driver had cut deals with stores all along the route but thats OK, just be honest with me there were some metal items in Petra I passed on buying expecting them to be available in this great shop. Whenever I told our driver something he didn't want to hear, such as I didn't love the Dead Sea Spa hotel (full of running screaming children) or his shop had tacky items I was dismissed and told I was wrong. Also Nada at the agency was delayed in responses we could never have a conversation every msg was delayed. I will say both drivers we had in Israel were much nicer with much more professional attitudes.

We had never heard of KimKim prior to booking this trip. Once we read the reviews, we were sure this is the agency to go with...and we were NOT disappointed. Our local specialist, Nada, helped us plan our trip from A to Z. She had really good recommendations, travel advice and was extremely responsive.

Our driver, Awni Naser, who was with us for 5 days carting us around the sights of Jordan was exceptional as well. Very knowledgeable and helped re-arrange our itinerary slightly based on our needs for an even better experience. He gave us excellent pointers during the entire trip.
Our Jordan trip included Amman, Kerak, Mt. Nebo, Jerash, Petra, Wadi Rum and Dead sea. Wadi Rum and Petra were the highlights for us. We stayed in a panoramic dome "tent" (in Aicha camp, highly recommend the accommodations and food here). Nada also organized a dinner for us with a local Petra family, which was nice to see how people in the area live. We highly recommend the Petra By Night tour, it is simple and quite magical.
Overall, we have nothing but good things to say about our trip - very well organized and executed. We will definitely book with KimKim again for our next adventure. 5 stars all around (would rate it higher than 5 stars if we could!). Thank you very much, Nada and Awni!

As far as hotel bookings, any special requests around late check out, attached rooms etc were fully accommodated. The pricing of the package seemed very fair. The highlight was the excellent services provided by our Jordanian tour guide Mr Emad Fraihat, who was much more than our driver. He had tremendous local knowledge, spoke English fluently, and very high customer service orientation. When trip ended and we had some hiccups at the airport, Mr Emad did his best to help us. I recommend Kimkim, Amani tours, Ms Nada and Mr Fraihat to make your Jordan visit smooth.

Jordan is an amazing country. Our guide, Akram, was the perfect person to show us the country. He was pleasant, knowledgeable, accommodating and the nicest most gentle man. I would definitely recommend him and Kimkim. Our favorite sites were Petra, Bethany beyond Jordan, the Castles, Mt Nebo, and the Dead Sea. Jordan is a Holy place that makes the Bible come to life. Being able to see the countryside with Akram was an awesome experience. We already miss him.

No complaints regarding the accommodations en route. The food was good , we are not meat eaters but we could always find fish or veggie dishes. Wine was good too , when available.
Jordan is one of the most interesting and varied country to visit. With THE most hospitable and kindest people you will ever meet. Thank you to Nada and Emad for such a wonderful trip.

Amazing trip! We enjoyed ourselves so much with the tour. Nada and Kim Kim make it really personal. We learned a lot from the culture and from the country. It was a 10-day tour but with so many activities it felt longer.
I can only recommend Nada and Emad (guide/driver) to anyone who wants to experience the culture and highlights in Jordan.
