360-degree view of the city of Amman - The Roman theater and the Citadel were really worth seeing. In particular, from the Citadel, I can get a 360-degree view of the city of Amman, and it was my first experience in a place like this in my life. On the way through downtown, the traffic moved forward very slowly, which fortunately gave me a good idea of how people lived. The driver always tried to drive safely and was very attentive to me.

Touring Amman - Almost needed to pay more due to incorrect information on the site’s description, but we were accommodated to what we paid for. Our tour started an hour after the scheduled time too, so we visited the mosque, arena, and citadel. Beware in the Bazaar at the mosque. We left with the things we intended to buy, but they take you around the entire store even after saying we only want to look at a certain item. The woman was nice and even offered great tea, but it was at least a 30 minute delay before they showed us what we wanted. The reason this is 4 star is because we toured with Omar and had an amazing time touring the city. He showed us great spots and picturesque locations. Got us to the locations promptly, didn’t rush us, and drove very nicely. Felt completely safe and learned a lot about Jordan’s history and culture!

Only half the ininerary - We were picked up by Omar on time and he was very nice and spoke good English. He took us to the Citadel and Roman Amphitheatre and gave us good pointers on where to go and what to see. Since we are well-traveled and have seen a lot of Roman ruins, I specifically asked We Guide Travel if we would be seeing the old city and a mosque. They replied, "Yes, the King Abdallah (blue) mosque and the old city." However, instead, Omar took us to a local mosque, which was very basic and not interesting. Then, I believe we were on our way to the old city when it began to rain lightly. As we were stuck in traffic, waiting to turn, I saw my hotel and asked Omar "Is that our hotel?" He immediately changed course and brought us back to our hotel instead of finishing our tour. It was rather disappointing. I think he just wanted to go home and not be in the rain.
