Traveler reviews
Fantastic guide (Hassan), excellent tour of Citadel n' a great local lunch.
I had 4 days in Jordan n' with full-day tours of Petra and Jerash/Dead Sea already booked (see separate T/A reviews), wanted to see the Citadel, Roman Theatre in Amman but after hiking Petra, thought my ol'legs would give out, so booked this day tour of Citadel (Umayyad Palace), Roman Theatre a few other sights n' "local" lunch. My guide (Hassan Alqurnih) was excellent; a truly local man, most knowledgeable of local history n' culture and quite flexible with my options. After an extensive Citadel tour, did Rainbow St by car and the "Embassy" area, then Hassan look me to his own personal eating spot (.......I asked for it). Perfect tour, guide and options. Fantastic !!
Overall a trip worth doing when you’re in Amman and the tour provider is reliable.
Tour company was responsive when I updated them of my hotel location. The driver was on time and speaks English pretty well. The visit to Jerash and Citadel was like a step back to history.
An authentic Jordanian experience
My guide Mahmoud was superb. I like to learn about the society of the country I am visiting as well as see the sights and in this respect Mahmoud was brilliant, providing me with wonderful insights about the people of this great country. I do not drink so Mahmoud offered to replace the wine tasting with a Turkish Hammam experience which is really something. Don’t go for the “hard” massage unless you’re prepared to be seriously pummeled. The dinner at a local, non tourist restaurant was first class. Really great traditional Arab food. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and Mahmoud’s company and cannot recommend this experience more highly.
A memorable evening in Amman seeing the sights and enjoying Iftar with a local guide during Ramadan
I had an absolutely lovely evening with Basel of Zaid yours seeing panoramic views of Amman in the evening followed by Iftar with at Hashem in downtown Amman. I got the see the sights including the Citadel and the Blue Mosque with the burkah and the Amphi theater while seeing Amman from up high The Iftar was most especially the best part of the tour and a memory I will treasure Basel personally broke bread with me with three types of hummus and the Majool dates and Kunafi at the end as the sweet
Full view of Amman in a single day
We combined the panoramic tour with the day tour of Amman. They were both spectacular. Our guide was absolutely amazing. The lunch we enjoyed was outstanding.
