Amman City Tour + Dead Sea
About This Tour
History in the morning, weightlessness in the afternoon — this private day tour pairs Jordan's capital with its most surreal natural wonder. We begin among Amman's landmarks: the blue-tiled dome of the King Abdullah I Mosque, the ancient Citadel with the Temple of Hercules and sweeping views over the city's nineteen hills, and the 6,000-seat Roman Theatre carved into the downtown hillside, with time to wander the surrounding souks.
Then the road drops — over a kilometer of descent in under an hour — to the shore of the Dead Sea, 430 meters below sea level, the lowest point on the surface of the Earth. Here the water is nearly ten times saltier than the ocean and floating is simply physics: lie back and the sea holds you up. Coat yourself in the mineral-rich black mud famous in spas worldwide, rinse off, and repeat until content. Upgrade to a private beach resort with lunch, pools and full facilities for $45 per person, or keep it simple — either way, you are back at your Amman hotel by evening having toured a 9,000-year-old city and swum in its strangest sea in a single day.
