  • Visit the ancient site of Jerash, a place of 1000 ancient pillars
  • Explore the Attractions of the North expand_more
    • Meet the tour guide at the hotel or the chosen meeting location in Amman.
    • Drive through Jordan road for about 1 hour and 20 mins to get to the castle of Ajloun. Visit the castle for about an hour.
    • Head to the local Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature for a hike on the Soap House Trail (2-3 hrs). After that, we will drive about 45 minutes to get to Jerash.
    • Explore Jerash, which will last for 2 hours. Jerash is the most preserved Roman site ever. Antioch, Pompeii of the east, Gerasa, whatever name you choose, you will still be taken away by the beauty of the temples. The Cardo, the mosques, and the city with 1000 pillars are an apple to the eye. As we walk through the Hadrian's Gate, not only you would merge into the site, but the feel of old times will wash over you as if you started to see Marianos by the gates and the chariots running back and forth in the hippodrome; the bridge that connects eastern and western sides of the town is still functioning.
    • In the late afternoon, we will head back to Amman.

Know before you go
  • Northwest of Jerash is Ajloun and a castle like no other. You will be left with the views of the evergreen landscape and the amazingly maintained waterways, and maybe, you will feel some of that northern pine-scented breeze to make you feel as new as rain. The trail will lead you among Oaks, Maples, and Summaq trees (Rhus). The feeling cannot be explained, so you will have to be here to experience it first-hand!
