Highlights
  • King Abdullah Mosque - The blue-domed King Abdullah I Mosque, built in the 1980s by the late King Hussein as a memorial to his grandfather, is open to Non-Muslim visitors.
    The nave with an area of 1,615 m2 has the capacity to house 3,000 worshippers. It is octogonal and distiguished for not having pillars inside. Its dome of 35 m in diameter has a height of 31 meters. A source of radiation was placed in the middle taking the form of a golden star culminating in the Ninety Nine Most Beautiful Names of Allah surrounding the dome’s neck. The suspended chandelier of 168 lanterns consists of three circles with the Holy Quranic Verse with the word Allah recurring on every lantern.
    The fertile land is expressed in the form of a red carpet made of an ornamental textile of recurring patterns meant to direct worshippers toward the Kiblah. All the walls, including the Kiblah, the pulpit, and the Mihrab are panelled with wooden and marble oriels.

Excellent and Stress Free City Tour - From booking the tour a week before our trip to the day of full day city tour everything was easy to navigate. Our driver was fantastic and answered questions and gave us information about each location we visited. We were able to see a lot of the historical sites and museums worry free because of the clean car, friendly driver and being able to go at our own pace. Highly recommend booking through this company for your travels in Amman.

Top trip with Tareq - Absolutely amazing day tour of Amman. Some reviews say that it's just a driver who doesn't talk, but my top man Tareq not only drove me around, he was giving so much interesting info about the city and sights. Ask for Tareq and you won't be disappointed.

At you pace touring Amman - Be mindful, the car driver is not a tour guide that will go inside to each destination with you! Mohammed was excellent in providing quick tips to each stop. I enjoyed my alone time at each location and I loved the sweet treats! At some places I didn't see myself being there for too long so the timing with the tour can fluctuate. Great day spent overseeing Amman and is architectural sites!

Essential experience - If you’re visiting Amman as a tourist, this is the way to go. In some cities you might be able to do it yourself, but not here. Or it would be very inconvenient, and likely more expensive. So glad we booked the tour. Our guide wasn’t particularly voluble, but good enough. Basically you’re getting the service of a private car and driver. You pay small entrance fees to some attractions and use your Jordan Pass for free entry to others. Find out about why the Jordan Pass is the best deal available if you’re planning a trip to Petra too. And also you wouldn’t want to try doing Petra on your own. We got a private car and driver deal for Petra from another company. There are cheaper ways to do it, but I’m glad we didn’t even try it.

Misleading and expensive. This is a driver NOT a tour. - This provides you with a driver NOT a tour guide. It implies you are given a tour of each site, which you are not. You are only driven between each place. This is misleading and very overpriced for the what you are actually given. Driver just sat and smoked cigarettes at each location, didn’t provide any information on the locations. I know a cheaper driver who would have provided a better experience. I would have done this if I had known.
