Dear Emma of Far and Ride and Jessica of Jezra Travel,
Even before the trip, the first thing that impressed me was the quick & detailed response to all my queries over several email exchanges. This was much appreciated as I had many things to sort out in a short time.
My trip was in two parts: the first part was a tour of various places in Jordan & the second part was the riding tour. For the first part, everything went on perfectly. The drivers & guides were friendly & knowledgeable, day trips went as planned, and the hotel was comfortable. I only wish I had more time to explore Petra.
The riding tour was well organized and I must especially commend the excellent food. When you are out riding & camping in the desert, the last thing you want is bad food, so I was most pleased with the good food. Everyone was really friendly, and I had a great fun time. Before the trip, I was a little concerned about the weather (being December) but it turned out fabulous. The Wadi Rum desert landscape is beautiful; the Jordanians will tell you that you go there "to find yourself". The horses are well looked after and, being Arabians, are spirited which adds to the fun. I would recommend the tour / riding operator to anyone interested to visit Jordan.
Cheers Kevin
