Amman City Tour — Full Day
About This Tour
One of the Middle East's most underrated capitals deserves a full day — and this tour delivers Amman in depth, ancient and modern, with lunch included. The historical circuit covers the King Abdullah I 'Blue' Mosque with its striking blue-tiled dome, the Citadel with the Temple of Hercules and Umayyad Palace commanding views over nineteen hills, and the 6,000-seat Roman Theatre carved into the downtown hillside. Then the city comes alive: a walk through the gold souk and spice market of the old downtown, a taste of hot knafeh from Habibah — an Amman institution since 1951 — and the cafés and galleries of Rainbow Street in the elegant Jabal Amman district.
The afternoon is yours to shape with a choice of one signature museum: the Royal Automobile Museum, with the late King Hussein's remarkable collection of cars and motorcycles; the Royal Tank Museum, the largest of its kind in the Middle East; or the Jordan Museum, home to some of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the 9,000-year-old Ain Ghazal statues — among the oldest human statues ever found. Lunch at a well-loved local restaurant is included, and with a private driver threading you through the city, you cover in one day what most visitors need three to find.
