Highlights

Your private, air-conditioned vehicle and professional English-speaking driver will be waiting at your designated pick-up location in Amman, ready to take you on a scenic journey through Jordan’s picturesque countryside. Your first destination is the historic city of Madaba, known as the 'City of Mosaics.' Here, you'll visit the famous St. George’s Church, home to the 6th-century Madaba Map, an intricate floor mosaic that beautifully illustrates the ancient Holy Land and Jordan. Next, you'll head to the sacred Mount Nebo, where you can soak in the breathtaking views over the Jordan Valley. Be sure to admire the well-preserved 6th-century floor mosaics, depicting vivid scenes of animals, pastoral life, and hunting. Your journey continues to the Baptism Site, with an estimated arrival by 2:00 PM. After a 2-hour tour of this revered location, you’ll reconnect with your driver for a relaxing return to Amman, where you'll be dropped off at your chosen location.

About Amman

Amman, Jordan's capital, spreads across a series of hills, with Roman ruins, crowded downtown souks and a warm welcome at the start of any Jordan journey.

The Amman Citadel crowns Jabal al-Qal'a with the Temple of Hercules, the Umayyad Palace and sweeping views over the city. Below, the Roman Theatre, carved into the hillside, seats thousands, and the downtown souks around the Grand Husseini Mosque sell spices, gold and sweets, with the scent of coffee and cardamom in the air.

Top-ranked sights in Amman: Petra, Jerash (Gerasa), Ajloun Castle.
