Excellent Service - I booked a tour from Amman to Jerash, Ajloun, and Umm Qais. The car was spotless, Mr. Hassan Al-Khatib was an exceptional driver, he was very attentive to safety, polite, and willing to provide local information and details about what we were going to visit. He was a truly professional person who made the trip enjoyable despite some issues caused by another customer in the car.. Highly recommended!

This tour was the highlight of our trip to Jordan. - This tour was the highlight of our trip to Jordan. The team did a great job planning the route, and the timing at each site was just right. Jerash’s Roman ruins are incredibly well-preserved, Ajloun Castle offered breathtaking views, and Um Qais gave us a view of the Sea of Galilee that was just unforgettable. Our guide and driver, Youssef, made us feel at home, and we always felt safe wherever we went. Jordan is rich in history and very welcoming — highly recommended!

Incredible historical day trip - perfect trip from Amman with the best driver - We were lucky enough to have the amazing driver Hassan Al- Khatib - from the Al-Anarmark office! You will be treated to the best driver for this tour!
Hassan is so kind, he picked us up early with snacks and he gave us a great journey by including facts and stories, as well as stops at some beautiful viewpoints.
The day was amazing from start to finish, Hassan really made sure our journey and tour was comfortable and a trip of a lifetime! I can’t recommend Hassan enough as a driver!
I think this is an underrated trip for sure! There is so much history in a few areas which are easy to reach from Amman. It is the perfect day trip, early start but back to Amman early evening to perhaps rest and then go out and enjoy the evening again!

Fantastic package to see all 3 sites in one day! - Our driver Hassan Al-Khatib was punctual, professional and very knowledgeable on all the different landmarks. He made sure we were comfortable and safe and gave us good recommendations and tips. I would highly recommend this package so you can see all three sites in one go but be warned Jerash is very hot!
