    We had an incredible experience on this guided tour, which allowed us to step into the past and admire astonishing ruins that truly reflect the grandeur of ancient civilization. Strolling through the remnants of the amphitheater, we were amazed by the intricate carvings and the sheer size of the structures that have withstood the test of time. The knowledgeable guide brought each site to life with fascinating stories that made the history feel tangible rather than distant.

    While the tour was well organized, we noticed that the duration felt a bit rushed at times, leaving us wanting to linger longer at some of the more striking spots. Overall, the trip was a delightful escape from our busy schedules, providing a perfect balance of education and exploration. We left feeling enriched and inspired by the captivating legacy of a civilization long gone.

    Our family appreciated the opportunity to walk among the impressive ruins of Jerash during this guided tour from Amman. The highlight for us was standing in the grand oval plaza, where we could almost hear the echoes of ancient life. While the guide was knowledgeable and engaging, we felt that the tour could have included a bit more time for exploration on our own.
