We didn't expect to love the desert - We didn't expect to love the desert castles so much! Alaa was our driver and guide — super friendly and knowledgeable. We started with Amman’s Citadel and Roman Theater, then headed east to Qasr Amra and Qasr Kharana. The mix of Islamic and Roman influence was fascinating. A hidden gem of a tour for history lovers.

Our driver, Youssef, was fantastic—he showed us hidden spots in Amman and told us so many interesting facts about the city. The Desert Castles were stunning and full of history. Five stars for service, comfort, and knowledge!

This tour was a good way... - This tour was a good way to enjoy a road trip in some of the further reaches of Jordan and the heart of its capital. Each historic site had its own vibe. It was an interesting experience to be able to walk and climb around each of the places. After the desert we went back to the city and witnessed the real, busy and beautiful life around town with our driver, Safwat. He was the man to go to town with for sure — he knew the best places for everything, especially the snacks! It was a relaxing day compared to Petra & Wadi Rum.

A great day trip with the best driver/guide - We had a fantastic time on our day trip to Amman and the desert castles. Our driver/guide Mahmoud was just great! He arrived on time with a clean car, told us the history of each place we were visiting, was very knowledgeable and gave a lot of information about Jordan and Jordanians. He figured out that we loved history so asked us to spend as much time as we needed at each site without rushing us anywhere. He also gave us suggestions on where to shop and on where to find good Jordanian delicacies. When we asked him about kanafeh, he took us to a famous sweet shop to try it out (he even wanted to pay for it himself) During this trip, we have been to Turkey, Egypt and Jordan and have come across many guides but he was hands down the best we have had so far. Thank you Mahmoud for making our last day in Jordan so memorable!!
