Private Day or Night Amman Sightseeing

Experience a panoramic visit to the city of Amman that is enriched with glamour of the past and the present known in the past as Amon. During the 2-hour morning or evening tour, visit the ancient and modern Amman by driving in a private vehicle through its streets, downtown area and past animated markets, churches, and mosques like the Grand Husseini Mosque. Start the tour driving through Jabal Al - Hussein for a breathtaking view of old Amman from the Citadel. Gaze in awe at the Roman Amphitheater with its Hashemite Plaza, carved into a hillside in the 2nd century B.C. and the most important remnant of Amman’s predecessor, the Roman white city of Philadelphia. Pass the “Raghadan Palace”, the burial place of the late King Hussein. Proceed to the downtown area and take some free time to wander and explore the old gold and spice markets. The tour will continue to the city’s center Parliament Building, King Abdullah Mosque (Blue color), and the Orthodox Church. Continue to stroll by the historical area of Jabal Al – Webdeih, famous for its different arts galleries. Then wander around Rainbow Street in Jabal Amman Quarter, the cradle of many of Amman’s landmarks: like the headquarters of the Jordan River Foundation, and the residence of King Talal. After Rainbow Street, Amman’s colorful arts and shopping hot spot; head over to the modern part of town. Delve into the upscale neighborhoods of “Abdoun” and “Swefieh”, where luxury shopping malls and swanky private villas line the streets. Alternatively, ask for a drop off at one of the malls on your tour like Galleria Mall, Taj Mall, or Abdali Boulevard, a stylish new enclave of designer shops regarded as Amman’s up-and-coming downtown area.

Yousef was a great driver. Very accomodating with the timeline as I took a bit longer in the Citadel. He also was very pleasant and friendly, nice to speak with. Nothing was a bother, we stopped at a very popular food shop (Shawerma Reem) after the 3 sites on the way back to the hotel. Only comment I’d make relating to the specific sites is there is very little information available at the sights if you are walking around the sights on your own eg Citadel. Having visited a few Roman sites in other countries I got the gist of the areas at the Roman Citadel. Guides are available within the tourist attractions for additional costs to the entrance fee, and can provide all the information about the specific site. Guide costs ranged from about 30 JOD. Thanks Yousef for a great morning. 😃

Yousef Hanoon, he is the best!!! He was very flexible, kind and interested in showing things that were not included. If you are going to Amman, he is the person that I really recommend. Nowadays I can’t trust on all the reviews because some guides ask you to give the best review in front of them that I don’t like. If you are good, I’ll give you the best review. But I’ll give the best review to Yousef.

Yousef is a perfect guide, he speaks English very well, responds to your requests and tells you about the city and the country in a lot of detail. I was able to follow him well and found the trip perfect. He drives safely and in a good car. I would definitely recommend him. Thanks to Yousef

Yousef was very friendly. The car very clean. Indeed; it's more of a driver's tour rather than a sightseeing tour but Yousef explained some things to us anyway.

highly recommend Yousef for tours in Jordan, friendly, reliable and safe driver giving good information on the waynto places we visited
