I would like to thank Mr. Raed Haddad for making our visit in Jordan wonderful. His well-roundedness about the place and great communication skill made our experience to relive the existence of the events in that era. Truly, he is remarkable and highly recommendable.

Raed customized our itinerary perfectly along the interests we had as a group. It was an excellent experience and we'd highly recommend him to future travellers. 

Raed is amazing! If you are going to Jordan, Raed is the man you want with you. I have been to Jordan 4 times and he is by far the most friendly, educated, organized guide we've ever had.  As a photographer and videographer it's really important for us to be at certain places when the lighting will be right so we don't miss the shot. Raed is also a photographer and helped us capture some of the best shots we've ever gotten. Raed will show you Jordan in a way no one else can, and you will have an amazing adventure together. I cannot recommend him strongly enough!

If you hire Raed Haddad to convey you through the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, be sure to bring a recording device.  You will be getting the equaivelnt of an honors' seminar in the history of the Arabian peninsula, and you won't want to miss a thing.  His knowledge on the subject is inexhaustible.  Whether narrating the rise and fall of the Nabaetan kingdom or unpacking the long-range effects of the Arab victory at the Yarmuk, he fills tourists with the dizzying sense that they are treading atop millennia of civilization.  Minus that perspective, a visit to the Holy Land is just a spell at Club Med with extra sand.

This isn't to say that Raed is a pedant or a know-it-all.  God forbid.  Personable, down-to-earth, sensitive to the limits of the occidental attention span, and above all fun, he's more like a scoutmaster with a long reading list and an uncanny memory.  To say that his English is perfect would do it a disservice.  Raed speaks exactly -- and I mean exactly -- like John Wayne.  Although that can be a bit jarring when he takes you to Wadi Rum, recognizable from David Lean's epic Lawrence of Arabia, the general effect is of getting an unexpected and welcome reminder of home.

Since 2008, I have had the opportunity to visit Jordan on three different occasions. Each time, I was fortunate to have very good and very competent tour guides. My most recent trip took place in October. Raed Haddad led our group, which was comprised of religious writers and bloggers of all denominations and non-denominations. From the moment I met Raed, it was as if we had been lifelong friends. He was very warm and welcoming. His English is impeccable, which was very helpful because my previous guides were sometimes difficult to understand. Raed is very knowledgeable about Jordan and its rich history. He's also very patient, which is important when you're dealing with diverse groups of people, and goes out of his way to make every person in the group feel important. The best compliment that I can give Raed is that, when you first meet him, you think of him as your tour guide but, by the time you leave Jordan, you consider him to be your friend. He's a great ambassador for the Royal Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
