Overview

Private Full-Day Jerash & Dead Sea

A close second to Petra on the list of favorite destinations in Jordan is the ancient city of Jerash, which boasts an unbroken chain of human occupation dating back more than 6,500 years. Jerash lies on a plain surrounded by hilly wooded areas and fertile basins. Conquered by General Pompey in 63 BC, it came under Roman rule and was one of the ten great Roman cities of the Decapolis League. Its 2km south of the main resort strip, is run by Amman municipality to give affordable access to the Dead Sea. The grounds are attractively landscaped and the beach is clean, with sun umbrellas, freshwater showers, and a vibrant local flavor, making it a great place to strike up a conversation with a Jordanian family.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • You will leave your Amman Hotel or residence and drive 50 km in the north to Jerash, the well-preserved city of the Roman Empire, often called Pompeii of the East.

Pass the Hippodrome offering space for 15,000 spectators, the impressing Forum, continue to the Temple of Artemis, which columns are 12 meters high and each drum weights 20-40 tons. Other highlights are the Colonnaded Street and the Nymphaeum. From here drive 1.5 hours to Dead Sea Beach, with 400 meters below sea level the lowest point on earth, where ever since the days of Herod the Great, people have flocked to in search of its curative secrets. The area is characterized by high annual temperatures, low humidity, and high atmospheric pressure, the air is extremely oxygen-rich. Leisure time with the chance to float on the salty waters of the Dead Sea. Return transfer to Amman hotel or residence.
