About
This tour offers a one-day journey through three significant historical periods and cultures, including Umm Qais's Hellenistic and Roman history, Ajloun Castle's medieval Islamic military architecture, and Jerash's Roman urban planning. The sites showcase different types of ruins: Jerash as a large ancient city, Umm Qais with Roman and Ottoman ruins against natural scenery, and Ajloun as a fortress. It's a highly efficient trip for limited time, combining three major northern Jordan attractions into one day. It also highlights northern Jordan's fertile, green landscape, contrasting with the desert scenery of Wadi Rum and Petra.

Umm Qais "Jadara" A day Private Tour Enjoy The History And Stunning Scenery.
First Stop - Umm Qais: The tour often begins with the longest drive, heading to the northernmost site, Umm Qais (ancient Gadara). This is a strategic choice, as you can spend the morning at the site before the midday sun becomes too intense.
Highlights: Umm Qais offers incredible views of the Sea of Galilee, the Golan Heights, and the Jordan Valley. You will explore the ruins of the Greco-Roman city, including the black basalt Western Theatre, a basilica, and colonnaded streets.

After exploring Umm Qais, the tour heads south to Ajloun. The drive is scenic, passing through pine forests and olive groves.
Highlights: Ajloun Castle, also known as Qal'at ar-Rabad, is a 12th-century Islamic fortress built by the Ayyubid dynasty to defend against Crusader attacks. You can explore its towers, rooms, and corridors, and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside from the top of the castle.
