About this experience
Amman can sometimes feel inaccessible to foreign visitors. Take the mystery out of your visit by exploring the city with a local guide on a private walking tour. This personalized tour focuses on discovering Amman’s streets, iconic landmarks, and the exterior of monuments including museums.

Before your tour, your guide will contact you to understand your interests and preferences, ensuring you visit the sites that appeal most to you.
As you explore, gain insider knowledge of local life, culture, and history, uncover hidden gems, and experience Amman through the eyes of a local expert. Perfect for families, solo travelers, or couples, this private walking tour offers a unique and authentic connection to the city that you won’t find on your own.

Itinerary and highlights
The project was completed in 1924, and the King decided to name the new mosque after his late father Sharif Hussein, the leader of the Great Arab Revolt. The then-new mosque comprised a prayer hall, a courtyard and a domed fountain for worshipers to perform ablution, decorated with Koranic verses rendered in mosaics.
The Duke's Diwan is one of the oldest, well-preserved stone buildings located in the heart of Amman. Built in 1924 by Abdul Rahman Madi, the building served as the Central Post Office, and after 1948, it hosted the Haifa Hotel.
The Al Balad is the oldest Downtown area of the capital of Jordan, Amman. This part of the city is one of the most interesting ones to meet the Jordanians and speak with them. The area is full of stores, artisanal products, merchandise, coffee shops or restaurants. Your guide will be happy to teach you the history of the downtown !
The Souk al Khodra is a small market hall where mainly vegetables and spices are sold. Not very surprising, because khodra means vegetables in Arabic. This souk is located just a few minutes from the main streets of downtown Amman, just behind the Roman Nymphaeum
The Rainbow Street, originally named Abu Bakr al Siddiq street, is a public space in the historic area of Jabal Amman, near the center of downtown Amman, Jordan. The street runs east from the First Circle to Mango Street, and contains several attractions from roof top restaurants to pubs.
