Morning pick up from Amman hotel, drive north to Jerash (Gerasa), one of the Roman Decapolis the best-preserved city outside Roman and visit its theaters, temples, churches and colonnaded streets. And then drive down to Rabad Castle (Ajloun Castle) you will visit the Islamic military castle of Ajloun, the castle was used by the Islamic armies of Saladin to protect the region against the crusaders. Then you will begin the one-hour drive to the Dead Sea. Being the lowest point on earth and filled with a variety of minerals with medicinal properties the site has developed into a health spa-like hotspot. The mineral concentration in the mud is used for therapeutic and beauty treatments. Queen Cleopatra and Sheba both were said to have known the value of the site and used it. Due to high salinity, the water supports no form of life hence the name the Dead Sea and floating is very easy. Be sure to prepare to swim and relax in the mud before heading back to Amman.

Inclusions: Bottled water, English Driver, Optional Onsite Local Guides, Hotel pickup and drop-off

Exclusions: Lunch, Gratuities, Entry Fees to Sites

Pick up from any hotel or residence in Amman and drive 03 hrs to the red rose city of Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the world, and since 1985 a UNESCO World Heritage Site. More than 2,000 years ago the Nabatean Arabs carved here amazing monuments in the sandstone. The Nabateans gained wealth by dominating the trade routes of ancient Arabia, but came under Roman rule in 106 AD. Visitors enter Petra via the Siq, an impressively narrow path, flanked by 80 meters high cliffs, till the Treasury. Its name comes from the Bedouin belief that the Pharaoh hid his treasure in the urn at the top of the Kazneh. The monument consists of a massive façade, 30 meters wide and 43 meters high

Dahab provided a great day tour from Aqaba and were extremely accomodating when my flight to Aqaba was cancelled and I needed to move the tour back an hour. Our lovely driver was early and efficient, happy to stop for snacks on the long drive to Petra (as we had an early flight and missed breakfast) and found us a brilliant guide on sight. We had a fantastic day and a great experience seeing the spectacular Lost City and I'd recommend Dahab Safari Day Tours to anyone, especially for the price in comparison to competitors.
