1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Many different things, but camel riding in the desert of Wadi Rum is probably the top one.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

If you can afford the time, try to have some extra days in Jordan before or (better) after the organised tour, to see some other things, especially country areas and nature reserves, not possible to fit into the 1-week tour. If you are not constrained to go in the summer, spring time is probably better for less-hot weather and more greenery and flowers; or failing that, autumn.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

1) Yes: we mostly used locally-operated hotels and restaurants, not international 'chains'.
2) Not so good: but this is a problem of the local infrastructure - lack of eco-design in buildings etc (heavy use of electricity for air-conditioning, lack of passive air-con/ventilation systems and 'green buildings'). Also, it's a pity there's an emphasis on using bottled drinking water, also creating a lot of plastic waste: tap water seems perfectly clean and is safe if boiled/sterilised (eg, in tea!)

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

We had a great time and would like to go back to see some more sometime.
