Testimonials

Michelle C.

“I had high hopes for my trip to Jordan with TBA Escapes, and I can honestly say the experience far exceeded my expectations. Every last detail, from arrival to departure, was arranged thoughtfully. I saw things I only dreamed about, like the Dead Sea, Petra, and Wadi Rum, and made friendships with incredible women. Our guides were absolutely lovely and made the trip that much better. Jordan was a perfect introduction to traveling in the Middle East, and I’m looking forward to booking another tour with TBA Escapes in the future!”

Kylie N.

“I’ve never been on a group tour before (usually I like to travel solo!), so was a bit anxious about joining a group. However, this experience was incredible. I’m so happy I went, the TBA Escapes team continuously went out of their way to make sure everyone was comfortable and taken care of. I walked away from the tour with new experiences that I probably wouldn’t have experienced on my own. I’m so grateful for TBA Escapes and the confidence it gave to me.”

Raquel T.

“Epic trip of a lifetime! Thank you TBAEscapes for helping me fulfill my #1 Bucket List item, visiting Petra, Jordan. No words can even begin to describe how amazing this trip was…it exceeded all of my expectations! When I think back to the week spent with 15 amazing women exploring all corners of the beautiful country of Jordan, a permanent smile on my face forms and goosebumps begin to emerge. I can’t even begin to pick my favorite adventure…exploring Wadi Mujib, Jeeping throughout Wadi Rum, floating in the Dead Sea, hiking all over Petra, scuba diving the Red Sea…it all was incredible! Thank you to everyone who made this an epic journey I will forever cherish. Can’t wait for the next adventure!”

Arianna

“This tour to Jordan with TBA Escapes was truly a unique, luxury experience. The food, the views, the hosts; everything was beyond my highest expectations. This is not just packaged tourism. It’updates the perfect mix of sightseeing with a local touch. I never imagined myself traveling in the Middle East, but thanks to TBA Escapes my dreams became an amazing reality!”

Persa

“I’ve been wanting to try a TBA tour for years. When Jordan was posted, I had to jump on the opportunity. The fact that Kiersten was also part of the tour, made it that must more special. I left with the biggest smile on my face. Everything we saw and did was outstanding. The hosts took care of all the details (even checking us in and out of hotels!) and it was nice to not have to worry about anything. I had such a great time and I will be forever recommending it to others!”
