Jerash is one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the world. The site was originally settled as far back as the Neolithic era, and also contains artifacts and ruins from the Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Ommayad period, when the city was part of a chain of 10 Greco-Roman settlements known in the bible as “the decapolis.”

Amman is the modern and ancient capital of Jordan, known in history as Rabbath Ammon and in Graeco - Roman times as Philadelphia. No more than four hours drive from anywhere in the country, Amman is a convenient base for any tour within the Kingdom. Your hosts, the Jordanians, are wonderfully gracious and welcoming and most will surprise you with their excellent English. The city is crowned by the Citadel, a hill with the ruins of the Temple of Hercules, and a museum with artifacts dating back to the earliest settlement in the region, some 7,000 years ago. At the foot of the citadel lies the 5,000 - seat Roman Theater.
Petra is the breathtaking legacy of the Nabateans, an industrious Arab people who settled in Southern Jordan more than 4,000 years ago. Over the thousands of years that the Nabateans inhabited the area, they hand-carved “caves” that gradually grew more and more elaborate, until they eventually rivaled the grandeur of contemporary Roman architecture – except that the spectacular structures of Petra were all carved from solid rock rather than being constructed. The efficient water system employed by the Nabateans also remains an inspiring example of resource management.
