A wonderful full-day - We reserved the Amman and Desert Castles tour. The driver was professional and arrived on time, and they informed us about the Amman area throughout the trip, and it wasverybeautiful. The desert castles are exquisitely preserved, and each has a fascinating history. The full-day trip included a lot of driving, as do all trips in Jordan, but nothing strenuous, and we had a great lunch at a local restaurant. In terms of information, the sites have visitor boards that provide important details if you don't mind doing your own research, and the locals were friendly and helpful.
