8.Fancy Tour of Hegra in a Vintage Land Rover

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 11 reviews · 2h 30m · from $499

Review of Hegra’s private vintage Land Rover tour, with Nabataean tombs, local guides, pricing, itinerary, and practical booking advice.

“Driving in the open landrover was fun and the Nabataean tombs are amazing! But for the price we expected a private guide, however she gave also explanations to the guests in other cars, sometimes in Arabic. We didn´t feel very valued. In general it is difficult to listen to a female guide with niqab speaking English not perfectly. We were three old ladies (over 70) but the driver did not help us out of or into the car.”
