Make the most of a day outside Amman, covering both a Roman city and a hilltop fortress that frame the region's landscapes and stories.

Begin with pickup from your Amman hotel, then set off with your group toward Jerash for the first stop of the day ahead together today.

Travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with an English-speaking driver-guide, then join a local guide in Jerash and continue on to Ajloun Castle.

Walk along colonnaded Roman streets and plazas, see theaters and arches, then climb Ajloun's stone walkways for views across the Jordan Valley.

Upgrade to a private tour for a more personalized experience with flexible pacing, dedicated transfers, and extra time to explore Jerash and Ajloun Castle at your own pace.

Jerash is one of the best-preserved Roman cities outside Italy, with remarkably intact streets, temples, plazas, and arches spread across a vast archaeological site. Walking along the original colonnaded streets gives a real sense of how advanced Roman urban planning was nearly 2,000 years ago. Highlights include Hadrian’s Arch, the Oval Plaza, the Temple of Artemis, and the ancient theaters that still host performances today.
