Discover three of Jordan’s renowned desert fortresses and the prominent features of Amman on this 7-8 hour exclusive trip from the capital city. Delve into the history of these legendary strongholds, erected by Umayyad dynasty leaders in the 7th and 8th centuries as you traverse to each on the desert expanses of eastern Jordan. Tour the UNESCO-listed Qusayr Amra, notable for its 8th-century frescos depicting indulgent activities, then proceed to the evocative Qasr Kharana and Qasr al-Azraq fortresses, the latter serving as a headquarters for TE ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ during the First World War. Venture to the capital’s most distinguished and celebrated site, The Citadel, stationed atop one of Amman’s seven hills and featuring components that trace back to the BC era, alongside the temple of the mighty Hercules, the Ayyubaid watchtower, and the monumental hand sculpture. Conclude your exploration at the semi-circular Roman Theatre, a relic from the days of ancient Rome that historically hosted concerts and theatrical performances.
