Guided Street Food Tour Amman

Meet your guide at the designated meeting point in Amman and begin a day focused on the tastes, streets and local character of the Jordanian capital.

Your guide will introduce the day's route and give you an overview of Jordanian food traditions before setting out on foot.

Stop 1: Hashem Restaurant

Begin with one of Downtown Amman's best-known traditional eating experiences.

At Hashem Restaurant, discover the simple dishes that form an important part of everyday Jordanian and Levantine food culture. The table typically revolves around favorites such as falafel, hummus, ful and fresh bread.

Your guide will explain the dishes and how they fit into local eating traditions while you experience the lively atmosphere of Downtown Amman.

Stop 2: Downtown Amman & Habibah Sweets

Continue through the streets of Downtown Amman, passing local shops, food sellers and busy commercial areas along the way.

Next comes something sweet.

Visit Habibah Sweets for traditional knafeh, one of Jordan's most popular desserts. Its combination of cheese, pastry, syrup and pistachios makes it a completely different experience from the savory dishes earlier in the tour.

Take some time to enjoy the Downtown atmosphere before continuing toward Jabal Amman.

Stop 3: Rainbow Street & Jabal Amman

Continue to Jabal Amman and explore Rainbow Street, one of the city's best-known areas for cafés, restaurants, shops and social life.

Walking along the street gives you a different view of Amman from the busier Downtown district. Browse the surroundings, see local businesses and experience the relaxed character of this historic neighborhood.

Stop 4: Al-Quds Falafel

Make a food stop at Al-Quds Falafel and enjoy another classic taste of Amman.

Falafel is one of the simplest foods on the tour, but also one of the best ways to understand everyday local eating. Enjoy it fresh and hot while your guide explains why this inexpensive street-food favorite remains so popular.

Stop 5: Souq Jara

When Souq Jara is operating during your tour date, spend time browsing this local market near Rainbow Street.

Walk among stalls selling handicrafts, gifts and locally made products while enjoying another side of Amman's neighborhood culture.

When the market is not operating, this part of the experience should be replaced with additional exploration of Jabal Amman rather than promising a closed attraction.

Stop 6: Traditional Jordanian Food at Sufra

Complete your food experience in the Rainbow Street area with a traditional Jordanian dining stop at Sufra Restaurant.

This final part of the tour introduces you to more substantial Jordanian cooking and gives you time to sit down after exploring the city on foot.

After the final food stop, your guided Amman street food experience comes to an end.
