Itinerary and highlights

After meeting your driver at your chosen pickup location and time, you’ll head to explore the Amman Citadel, spending approximately 45 minutes discovering its historic ruins and panoramic views.

Next, you’ll visit the Roman Amphitheater, spending around 30 minutes exploring this remarkable site. Built in the 2nd century BCE, the Amphitheater is one of Jordan’s most impressive and well-preserved historic attractions, capable of seating 6,000 spectators. From its upper levels, you’ll enjoy stunning panoramic views of Amman. Its grandeur and cinematic appeal have made it a popular location for films and advertisements, making it a must-see when visiting the city.

After visiting the Roman Amphitheater, your driver will take you on a 20–30 minute car tour through Downtown Amman. You’ll pass by the bustling old shops (Souk) and admire the Grand Hussein Mosque, built in 1923 and Jordan’s oldest mosque. You’ll also see Habiba’s Shop, famous for its traditional Jordanian sweets like Kunafa, and the renowned Hashem Restaurant, serving classic Jordanian dishes such as hummus, foul, and falafel. The duration of the car tour may vary slightly depending on traffic.

Next, your driver will take you to Rainbow Street, a historic and vibrant area in Jabal Amman, perfect for photos. Originally called Abu Bakr al-Siddiq Street, it stretches from the First Circle to Mango Street and is lined with attractions including rooftop restaurants, cafés, and pubs, offering a lively glimpse of Amman’s culture and charm.

Next, your driver will take you to King Abdullah Mosque, the only tourist mosque in Jordan designed specifically for visitors. Don’t worry about attire—there’s a special room providing garments to ensure your clothing is appropriate for the visit.

Built in the 1980s, the mosque can accommodate over 3,000 worshippers. Its striking blue dome and futuristic twin minarets make it one of Amman’s most iconic landmarks. If you’re curious about Islamic culture and architecture, this is an ideal stop. Men and women enter separately, visits are scheduled at specific times, and the entrance fee is 2 JD.

Next, your driver will take you to the Royal Automobile Museum, a must-visit for history buffs and car enthusiasts alike.

This museum showcases a remarkable collection of cars and motorbikes owned by King Abdullah I, King Talal, and King Hussein of Jordan, spanning from 1916 to modern times. You’ll see rare classic vehicles that played a role in the history of Jordan’s royal family.

The museum offers electronic narration in Arabic, English, Spanish, French, and German, with a special narration for kids available in Arabic.

After the Royal Automobile Museum, your driver will take you to The Jordan Museum, located in the vibrant Ras al-‘Ayn area of Amman’s new downtown.

Opened in 2014, it is the largest museum in Jordan and houses the country’s most significant archaeological treasures. The museum’s beautifully designed galleries present the history and cultural heritage of Jordan, offering a comprehensive and engaging insight into the Kingdom’s past, present, and future. It serves as a national hub for learning, preserving, and showcasing Jordan’s historic, antique, and cultural legacy.
