Most Inspirational Moment
A small group of us did the walk up to the high place of sacrifice and back down via wadi Farasah at Petra. One of my favourite ever walks!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Just fabulous! Ibrahim is kind, organised, knowledgeable, interesting, funny and has a deep well of patience for dealing with mixed groups of people with different needs. He is everything you could want in a group leader and more.
Advice for Potential Travellers
I read that you have to wear modest clothing but everywhere we went was very liberal. Best to be respectful but no need to buy anything special. Wear good walking shoes/trainers. Expect to walk a lot at Petra! Remember to take a bag you can put overnight stuff in for the desert (you can’t take your luggage). If you are a softie for dogs and cats, keep some pet treats handy. I bought a local data sim but barely used it - there’s wifi in all the accommodation and in the bus. Everywhere else there was no 4G anyway. Embrace every opportunity and have an amazing time!
