Itinerary and highlights
We begin our day with a morning departure from Amman after breakfast, heading towards the historic St. George’s Church in Madaba. Here, you will see the famous Madaba Map, a remarkable Byzantine-era floor mosaic. This ancient map provides the oldest surviving original cartographic depiction of the Holy Land, highlighting important locations, including Jerusalem. A true treasure of history and art, the Madaba Map offers a unique glimpse into the region’s rich cultural and religious heritage.
Next, we continue to Mount Nebo, the sacred site where Moses is believed to have viewed the Promised Land before his passing. From this vantage point, you can enjoy panoramic views of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and even Jericho on clear days. The site also features an impressive collection of early Christian mosaics and the memorial church, providing both spiritual significance and historical insight.
After exploring these remarkable sites, we return to Amman or the airport, completing a private and enriching Holy Land experience filled with history, spirituality, and breathtaking landscapes.
