BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Distances are short, the standing is long
Two or three hours mostly on your feet on hard ground. Comfortable shoes matter more than fitness.
The route is public space
Markets, lanes and places of worship are where people live and pray. Ask before photographing anyone and cover up where others do.
Cash for the small things
Tea, a fritter, an entry ticket. Card acceptance in old quarters is patchy at best.
Ask what the group size will be
A walking tour of six and one of thirty are different products at the same price. It is a fair question.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Worth every rupee.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.

Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.

Medina Province done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Plenty to eat and they were happy to work around a gluten allergy.

Well paced over 5 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Worth every rupee.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Recommended.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Would book with them again.

Reply from Meridian Overland

Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.

Questions people ask

Same civilisation, a couple of centuries later, and about a fifth of the visitors. Hegra has more intact tomb facades than Petra and no Treasury — there is no single set-piece, and no crowd either. If you have seen Petra this is a complement rather than a repeat.
