Highlights

Our driver will pick you up from Amman to Madaba the mosaic city, where you can visit Saint George Church where you can see the first mosaic map of the holy land, before you visit St. John the Baptist beheaded Church which was built above an old castle which you can go below the church and walk through the tunnels below, drink a fresh water from a very old well in there which still works until now, and also you can go up to the bells tower to see an amazing view for the city from the top.

After you finish from Madaba, our driver will drive you towards Mount Nebo, where Muses stand and showed his people the holy land, from there you can see Jerusalem, Naples, Bethlehem, Hebron, Dead sea, Jericho and many more of the holy land.

Then you will be driven down to Bethany beyond Jordan (The Baptism Site) where John the baptist baptized Jesus (peace be upon him) where you can get baptized in the Holy water of the Jordan River and visit the Lutheran church, Saint John the Baptist Orthodox Monastery, St. John The Baptist Roman Church and more.

After you finish from the baptism site, for sure you will need to eat and relax, and what else could be better than having an open buffet lunch in a 5 stars resort and float on the Dead Sea with a Mud bath and all facilities use in the resort.

You will have a free time in the resort until the sunset (the beaches will close at the sunset time) before our driver picks you up again and drives you back to Amman.

Best Tour in Jordan - A very huge thank you to Esmat al daher. I was on the Holy Land Private tour (Lunch included) tour. He is very insightful and patient as well as informative of Jordan’s past and present. Loved his hospitality. Thank you for making my birthday extra special. Highly recommended 🙏

Recommended tour - Really good experience. We visited Mount Nebo, Dead Sea and Baptism Site in one day. Pros: Beautiful landscape. Driver speaks English and knows the area very well. Comfortable car. Cons: Lots of walking (especially at the Baptism Site), make sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and visit the place on nice weather. 10/10 Recommended.
