“The trip was incredibly well organised – from the driver still holding our name card at 2 am when our flight was delayed to the perfect timekeeping throughout. Our English escort always thought the details through – from cheaper lunch to what we might need. Our forward going but sensible horses were fun and easy to ride, and Atollah – our Wadi Rum guide – matched them accurately to our riding abilities. Watching the camel race, Wadi Rum-style, from the window of a 4×4 driven alongside the galloping camels was a thrilling experience. In addition, the hotels (except for the reasonable 3*in Madaba) were much better than expected for the price, rounded off with a swanky posh 5* in Amman.”
