Über uns

Eid Nawafleh – Director of Jordan Tours & Travel, also owner of Petra Kitchen, Jordan's first customer orientated restaurant, where the clients cook along side local women and a professional chef. Owner of Made In Jordan Gallery, where local handicrafts are sold for the benefit of those that made them. Founder of Petra by Night, the romantically candle lit Siq leads to the famous Petra Treasury that is flood-lit with candles and then brought to life with the sensual music of local instruments. Most recently, Eid added a unique service to Jordan's tourism, Jordan Travel Medical Clinic, to provide the most professional health and safety service.

Eid is originally a Petra Bedouin, from a very large family who have their own village in the immediate area. He was educated in Wadi Musa, going to and from school on his own donkey. He studied film direction in Amman, during which time he directed an amateur film of the local Bedouin community's interaction with Western society. He also worked producing adverts and propaganda. 

Most of the Nawafleh family is involved in tourism by some way or another; however it was Eid's desire to introduce a new aspect of tourism to the region and specialized in film crews and news stations at the time of the Gulf war. This field led him to organizing these crews' excursions throughout Jordan. He is the first in the family to open his own Tour Operator Company. 

With an active imagination, Eid is always getting involved in new ideas and enthusiastic in organizing events where the local community benefits. In the years as a Tour Operator, Jordan Tours & Travel has organized incentives for Pharmaceutical companies, Microsoft, various industries and specialist fields. Eid does it different, he invites the locals to attend functions and integrate with the visitors, offering a unique cross cultural experience. 

Over a decade ago Eid introduced the concept of 5* camping in Wadi Rum, incorporating the Bedouin experience by training those interacting with Westerners to cater to their needs in a way that showed an authentic Bedouin lifestyle, finding the common ground between the two cultures. 

In 2004 Eid attended the Tourism Destination Management Course at the George Washington University, USA, to enhance his tourism knowledge, establishing a good networking base in which to operate professional events. 

Jordan Tours & Travel does not cater to the budget traveler; they provide a professional and comprehensive service that does not stop while the customer sleeps. Offering tailor made packages to groups or individuals, the customer is the most valuable asset and there is no rest until their expectations are met.
