I am a little disappointed about the tour. I booked this tour because (1) I thought that navigating the back trail could be difficult and (2) as we have more time, we could have more time to learn about Petra and Nabataean kingdom. Well, the back trail is not that difficult to find and our guide was unfortunately not very engaging. He was actually on the phone talking to his wife more than half of the time on the trail. When I pointed out his unprofessionalism, he did stop talking to his wife, but then added "but there is nothing to explain!". Well, if that is the case, what is the point of the tour? The tour is supposed to last for 5-6 hours but we reached the treasury in 4 hours. I do think the backdoor trail is worth doing it, as the scenery is so beautiful, but I don't think you need a guide for this. Actually, I do think that the whole Petra can be explored without a tour guide if you study a little bit in advance or visit the Petra museum (free) near the visitor center. If you really want to do the guided tour, probably 3hr regular tour may be better as that one allows you to explore Royal Tombs, Roman Theater and other structures in more detail with the guide's detailed explanation. During the backdoor trail tour, you just walk past those structures without getting close to them, so it is difficult to fully appreciate them (and have less chance to get the explanation). Even though the tour itself was disappointing, Petra is definitely beautiful and fascinating!

This tour is really amazing. Fahed is so knowledgeable but also manages to engage even reluctant teenagers. He was friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend this tour.

We went on this back door experience and it was AMAZING! We’ve been lucky to have Ahmed as our guide. He arranged everything for us to make this experience memorable, he told us the whole history and made everything even more interesting. 6 hours passed by in no time, even teenagers listened with interest and we were all more than happy to choose this option. Ahmed showed us spots outside the path we wouln’t go see if we were alone and showed us a perfect spot for the best pictures. I definitely recommend this tour and especially our tour guide Ahmed.

We booked the back door tour which included transportation from our hotel to the trailhead for the hike to the Monastery. Our guide Hashim gave us the option to take a ride in a private taxi and a private 4x4 pickup truck to skip the wait for the public shuttle. This was good advice as we started the hike before everybody else arrived. Hashim was our guide for the entire tour that ended at the Treasury in Petra. He had a friendly demeanor, is patient, very knowledgeable and covered everything we saw in Petra in great depth. He also shared a lot about life in Jordan in general.

The Back Door Petra – Easy Access route was an excellent way to experience Petra. The hike was manageable and very rewarding, with breathtaking views along the way and a much quieter entrance compared to the main gate. Reaching the Monastery from this route was truly unforgettable. Everything was well organized, and the experience felt authentic and peaceful. Highly recommended for those who want to enjoy Petra away from the crowds.

We did the backdoor access tour in Nov as a family - with 10 year olds. I was a bit apprehensive initially as I had read it was a solid hike. Our kids regularly hike 4 miles of even terrain (this was about 7), but it turned out great, partly due to our guide. Jihad contacted me via whatsapp immediately after booking, answered all my questions patiently and provided excellent suggestions. He kept tabs during our stay and volunteered to help if we needed any. We started early in the morning to catch the 4x4 ride to the starting point. It costs 15JD, but definitely helps. The hike is elevated but gradual for the majority and not very strenuous. Our guide Anas grew up in the area and is very knowledgable. He provided excellent information, kept us at a comfortable pace and the kids entertained. We learnt a lot about the history, geology and culture from him. Highly recommend this tour and the company.

Lovely experience! Anas was knowledgeable, kind and patient. We learned so much and he took so many pictures for us. He does a great job giving you a heads up before you enter a crowded area that you’ll be given an option to shop, go to a picture spot, ride donkeys, etc. so that we could make a choice without feeling pressured. Going through the back was definitely the move. Others going through the front have to climb 800+ stairs in the heat to reach the Monastery. Felt like it was worth it to have a guide to navigate from the hotel to all the spots and learn along the way.
