Excellent day tour!

Hassan was an excellent guide for our day tour. Interesting to visit Bethany Baptism Jordan River and As Salt as these were not a part of our larger organized tour. As Salt seems unknown as a UNESCO location and it was fascinating. Lunch was included and was very good. Thank you Hassan.
