Douna Tours, Amman – Jordan

Rabieh / Tiger Center #16 – 2nd floor

P.O Box: 4892 Amman, 11953 Jordan

I decided to look around some more. Only Memphis Tours has a similiar one day tour from Aqaba but there may be others. I do not like the 50% deposit business and pay before the beginning of the tour. Ramses does not operate that way.

If you hear of anything else about this, please post on this thread.

Thanks, Bill

Hello, We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Jordan and Jerusalem that Jordan Excursions Tours arranged for us.We chose Jordan Excursions because they were very flexible and good value for money.

 

The transport provided was excellent and the driver was excellent & very friendly & flexible (He was Fluent English & Spanish speaking).

 

We stayed in the Arena Hotel in Amman and visited Jerusalem, Hebron and Bethlehem in Israel. Our guide in Israel was George who spoke very good English and tailor made the itinerary according to our wish list.

 

Back in Jordan we also did a city tour of Amman and visited the dead sea, Madaba, Nebo, kerak, Wadi Rum and Petra. The whole trip was wonderful and we were looked after very well. The staff there were very nice & very professional & very flexible, and Saif met us last night & invited us to a very nice dinner & drinks and a nice panoramic tour in night...

 

I would highly recommend the Jordan Excursions for all..
