Your Amman City Tour with Egypt for Travel begins as your tour manager picks you up from your hotel in Amman. Get ready to explore the fascinating blend of ancient history and modern life in Jordan’s vibrant capital.
Your journey starts in downtown Amman, home to some of the city's most significant historical sites. First, visit the Amman Citadel, perched on a hill offering panoramic views of the city. This archaeological treasure showcases remains from the Roman, Byzantine, and early Islamic periods, reflecting Amman’s rich and layered history. Here, you will also explore the Archaeological Museum, which houses a remarkable collection of artifacts, including some of the Dead Sea Scrolls, giving you a deeper insight into the region’s past.
Next, take a stroll through the bustling Souq, Amman’s traditional marketplace, where you’ll experience the local culture firsthand. Walk through its lively alleys filled with aromatic spices, colorful textiles, and fresh produce, offering a glimpse into daily Jordanian life.
Your tour continues with a visit to the Roman Theatre, an impressive 2nd-century structure that once accommodated 6,000 spectators. This well-preserved amphitheater, built during the reign of Emperor Antoninus Pius, stands as a testament to Roman engineering and remains a key cultural site in Amman today.
After an enriching exploration of Amman’s historical and cultural gems, your driver will take you back to your hotel, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Jordan’s capital.
