Discover Jerash and Amman: A Journey from the Capital

The Jerash and Amman Expedition from the Capital is a full-day tour from Amman that combines one of Jordan’s most important Roman archaeological sites with the capital’s best-known historic landmarks. After pickup from your Amman hotel, travel north to Jerash and explore Hadrian’s Arch, the Oval Plaza, a Roman theatre and the Cardo Maximus with an English-speaking guide.

Pause for an included lunch at a local restaurant before returning to Amman for Citadel Hill, the Roman Theatre, the downtown souks and a stop at King Abdullah I Mosque. The itinerary balances major archaeological sights with a glimpse of everyday life in central Amman.

Air-conditioned transportation is arranged throughout the day, with drop-off back at your Amman hotel after sightseeing. This is a 1-day tour with no domestic flights, making it a practical way to experience both Jerash and Amman without arranging separate excursions.

  • Day-01 Amman to Jerash – Ancient Jerash and Amman City Highlights
    King Abdullah I Mosque Dome in Amman, Jordan - Planet Travel Advisor

    Meet your guide in the lobby of your Amman hotel at 8:00 AM and depart north in an air-conditioned vehicle for Jerash. The archaeological city lies approximately 45 km north of the capital, with actual driving time depending on your pickup location and traffic.

    Begin your Jerash visit at Hadrian’s Arch, built to commemorate Emperor Hadrian’s visit in AD 129. Continue through the archaeological site to the Oval Plaza, one of the city’s most recognizable public spaces, before seeing a Roman theatre and walking along the colonnaded Cardo Maximus. Together, these landmarks give a clear picture of the scale and urban planning of ancient Gerasa.

    After exploring Jerash, stop at a local restaurant for your included lunch. Beverages are not included.

    Return to Amman for the afternoon city tour. Head first to Citadel Hill, where the scheduled sightseeing includes the remains of the Temple of Hercules and the Umayyad Palace complex, along with wide views across the capital. Continue downtown to the Roman Theatre, then spend time around the Downtown Souk, where traditional shops and everyday city life create a different contrast to the archaeological sites visited earlier.

    Finish with a stop at King Abdullah I Mosque, known for its prominent blue dome. After the final sightseeing stop, transfer back to your hotel in Amman, with the current itinerary scheduling drop-off at approximately 5:00 PM.

Good to Know Before Travel

1. How far in advance should I book my international tour?
For optimal availability, especially for private guides, boutique accommodations, and peak-season flights, we recommend booking your international tour 6 to 12 months in advance. If you are planning travel during high-demand periods (such as cherry blossom season in Japan, the dry wildlife migration season in East Africa, or winter holidays in Egypt and Southeast Asia), securing your itinerary a year early ensures the best choice of hotels and seamless logistics. Last-minute bookings (3 to 4 months prior) are possible, but choices for premium accommodations may be limited.
2. Are your tours fully private or group-based?
We specialize primarily in tailor-made, private tours designed exclusively for you, your family, or your private party. Traveling privately gives you complete flexibility over your daily sightseeing pace, hotel categories, vehicle transfers, and expert guide allocation. We also offer curated small-group departures for travelers who enjoy sharing the experience with like-minded explorers while maintaining a comfortable, uncrowded group size.
3. What level of physical fitness is required for your tours?
Physical requirements vary depending on your destination and chosen itinerary. Many cultural and historical sightseeing tours involve moderate walking over uneven terrain, cobblestones, or ancient archaeological sites (such as temple steps or historic city quarters). Active itineraries may include hiking, jungle trekking, or desert excursions. Every tour description lists an activity level (Easy, Moderate, or Active), and our travel specialists can fully customize daily schedules to match your comfort and mobility needs.
4. What is included in the tour package price?
While exact inclusions depend on your customized itinerary, our standard tour packages typically include: Professional private airport meet-and-greet services and all local ground transportation in private air-conditioned vehicles. Accommodations ranging from 4-star and 5-star hotels to boutique heritage properties and luxury tented camps. Expert English-speaking local guides and Egyptologists/naturalists for scheduled sightseeing. Admission tickets and entrance fees to major monuments, national parks, and scheduled activities as outlined in your itinerary. Selected meals (daily breakfast is standard; select lunches and dinners are included depending on the destination). International airfare, international travel insurance, visa fees, and personal gratuities are generally excluded unless specifically requested.
5. How do visas and entry requirements work for international travelers?
Visa regulations depend entirely on your nationality and your destination country. Many destinations offer e-visas or visa-on-arrival facilities for US, Canadian, UK, and European passport holders, while others require pre-arranged documentation through an embassy or official government portal. Your passport must also be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned return date and contain consecutive blank pages. We provide detailed, up-to-spec entry guidance during your planning process, though travelers are ultimately responsible for verifying current requirements with official government authorities.
6. What safety and health precautions should I take before traveling?
Prioritizing health and safety is a cornerstone of comfortable international travel. We recommend consulting a travel medicine physician or checking the CDC and WHO websites 4 to 6 weeks before departure to review recommended routine vaccines, destination-specific immunizations (such as yellow fever or typhoid where applicable), and routine medications. Comprehensive international travel insurance covering trip interruption, medical emergencies, and emergency evacuation is mandatory for all our travelers. Throughout your journey, our local operations team monitors safety conditions daily to ensure seamless, secure travel.
7. What is the standard tipping culture during international tours?
Tipping practices vary significantly around the world. In regions across Africa and Asia, tipping (breeks / baksheesh / tips) is an integral part of the local service economy and a customary way to express appreciation for exceptional service from private drivers, local guides, hotel staff, and cruise crews. Before your departure, we provide a clear, practical tipping guideline outlining recommended daily amounts in local currency or USD, helping you budget comfortably without guesswork.
