Touristic Localities Sightseeing Tour in Amman (Half-day Tour) Amman is the modern and ancient capital of Jordan, known in history as Philadelphia & Rabbath-Ammon in the Roman-Greco period. Originally spread over seven hills like Rome, Amman now covers twenty hills. The city is crowned by the Citadel, a hill with the ruins of the Temple of Hercules, and a museum with artifacts dating back to the earliest settlement in the region, some 7,000 years ago. At the foot of the citadel lies the 5,000 - seat Roman Amphitheater; while there visit the museum of Popular Tradition and the Folklore museum, one flanks either side of the Amphitheater.
Tour to Jerash (Half-Day Tour) An easy 25 minutes drive from Amman is the Roman City of Jerash, known in the past as Gerasa or Pompeii of the East. It is considered the best preserved and most complete city of the Decapolis, a confederation of ten Roman cities dating back to first century B.C. Within the city you will see the great oval Forum, approached by what is termed the Street of Columns. This forum was once the center of social activity. There are two public baths, three theaters, and a hippodrome. There is also a nymphaeum, which is a complex of fountains and sculptures. You may walk under the triumphal arch built in honor of Emperor Hadrian, and let your mind return to the dream of time in the Temple of Artemis. One of Jordan’s most highly anticipated culture / fun events is the annual Jerash Festival held for two weeks each summer. During the remainder of the year there is an impressive and unique sound-and-light show given within the walls of the ancient city.

Religious Tour to Ma’daba, Mount Nebo, Baptism Site & Dead Sea (Full-Day Tour) Ma’daba: Thirty minutes drive south from Amman, along the 5,000 – years old King’s Highway is the city of Madaba (Madaba of the Bible). Madaba’s chief attraction is the contemporary Greek Orthodox Church of St. George. The church contains the earliest surviving original mosaic map of the Holy Land dating back to the sixth century.
Mount Nebo: Ten minutes to the west is the most revered site in Jordan: Mount Nebo, the memorial of Moses, the presumed site of the prophet’s death and burial place. The Byzantines built a small church whose floor is still covered with marvelous mosaics.
Baptism Site: Ten minutes drive from Mount Nebo, Some 2000 years ago, John the Baptist lived and baptized in a settlement called “Bethany Beyond the Jordan” (John 1:28). This important site of early Christianity, which Jesus also visited, has been rediscovered in Jordan, about 1500 meters east of the Jordan River. It has been carefully excavated by international archeologists, receiving pilgrims and visitors.
Dead Sea Ten minutes drive from Baptism Site, at 1,306 feet (400meters) below sea level, this is the lowest spot on Earth. As the name suggests, the sea is devoid of life due to an extremely high content of salts and minerals, giving the waters their curative powers, recognized since the days of Herod the Great, more than 2500 years ago. Take a swim where it is impossible to sink, and bath in the water that have flowed from the river Jordan and from the hills of Moab and Gilead.

Historical Tour to Petra (Full-Day Tour) Three hours driver south from Amman is the most famous attraction in the Kingdom. In July 2007, Petra was ranked second among the New Seven Wonders of the World. Three hours drive south from Amman is the most famous attraction in the kingdom, Petra fortress city. Literally carved out of craggy rocks, by the Nabataeans 800 B.C..
Fortified behind a narrow deep siq (gorge) that slowly winds through a massive rock wall. It is a wading, one kilometer long fissure between the overhanging clefts that seem to meet 300 feet overhead. Within Petra you will see soaring temples, royal tombs, Roman theatre, water channels, arched gates and others.
Petra was discovered when a Swiss explorer disguised as ab Arab, fell on it in 1812.
2 days Petra, Wadi Rum & Aqaba (2 day tour) Stunning in its natural beauty, Wadi Rum epitomizes the romance of the desert. With its "moonscape" of ancient valleys and towering sandstone mountains. Climbers are especially attracted to Wadi Rum because of its sheer granite and sandstone cliffs, while hikers enjoy its vast empty spaces. Wadi Rum is best known because of its connection with the British officer T.E. Lawrence. You can rent out a four-wheel-drive jeep with a Bedouin driver. Also available are camels, which you can hire. For those with the sense of adventure, the best way to see Wadi Rum is by hiking and camping in it. In Aqaba, King Solomon built a fleet that sailed to Ophir (Somalia) and returned with 420 talents of gold. The Aqaba fort was rebuilt in 1587 AD. In one of the most exciting discoveries in recent times, archaeologists in Aqaba have unearthed what they believe to be the world’s oldest church, from the late 3rd Century AD. Surrounded by rugged purplish mountains, Aqaba enjoys formidable weather throughout the year. The Gulf of Aqaba is a world known diving area. Aqaba itself offers eager divers the chance to experience virgin coral reefs, rare marine life forms, and encounters with friendly sea animals like turtles and dolphins.
