… You were right about Jordan being beautiful too. Our guide in Jordan, (Ahmad) was funny, charming and very proud to show us his country. We felt very spoilt with just the 2 of us on a private tour. The Jordanians were very welcoming (and complementary to us which we enjoyed!- I never tire of being told I am beautiful!!) and the countryside is gorgeous. I really liked the “biblical” ancient feel of the place. As a special treat, because we had such a huge day in Petra (memorable donkey ride!) and had seen most of the sights, Ahmad suggested we visit Wadi Rum for an extra $100 fee – which we were happy to pay. This day turned out to be a highlight of the whole tour for both of us, with a memorable jeep ride (driven by a Bedhouin!) and climbing of sand dunes etc…
