“Started pretty well as I was picked up right on time. Driver was really good - I felt very safe. Instructions were pretty clear. Plenty of time to see Petra up until the Monastery if you pace your walk accordingly. The jeep ride in Wadi Rum could've been better if some sort of blanket or warmers were provided especially during winter. Buffet for dinner and breakfast at Wadi Rum was great. I wish we couldve spent more time in the Dead Sea resort as we just spent around 2 hours including the buffet lunch. The same resort we used was 25 Dinar as per my hotel but we were charged…”
