Hotel pickup is included; a local guide is available as an add-on option.Is it for me?Choose the transportation-only option if you want to move through both sites at your own pace and spend extra time at whichever one holds you longer.

Jerash, Ajloun Castle & Umm Qais: Full-Day Tour from AmmanA full-day tour from Amman covering Umm Qais (Greco-Roman city with views of the Sea of Galilee), Ajloun Castle (12th-century Islamic fortress), and Jerash (one of the world's best-preserved Roman provincial cities). The tour includes hotel pickup, private air-conditioned transport, bottled water and an English-speaking driver; admission fees are separate. The Jordan Pass is recommended for discounted advance entry.Is it for me?The tour packs three major sites into a single day with long drives between them, so it suits travelers with limited time in Jordan who want to see multiple periods of history without organizing separate trips. If you prefer a slower pace or want to linger at one site, a multi-day itinerary would work better.
