Castles & Caves.
Trish, Nov 2023
Each castle was different with so much history attached to each. From mosaics that predated Christ, to housing Lawrence of Arabia. The Cave of the Seven Sleepers was also amazing. The gentleman there explained most of the story. Again Jordanian history is fascinating. A great morning trip.

Fantastic trip

Three very different 'castles' and not overly crowded either - well worth the trip. Knowledgeable driver also.

Just a ride to the desert castles and back
Mathieu_L, Mar 2022
Given the price, I expected an extensive tour of the desert castle, not just the services of a driver for half a day. Had I known, I would have drove to the desert castles by myself. However, Mohammed was flexible on pickup location, very punctual and provided great conversations opportunities throughout our journey. At the end, he took us shopping to Black Iris and agreed to drop us off downtown rather than back to our AirBnB.
A perfect day trip from Amman

My driver, Mohammad Bardaghawi, was right on time and knowledgable ehough about the 4 sites we visited that a guide was unnecessary. He structured the day around it being a Friday (Muslim Sunday) starting at the Cave of the Seven Sleepers. Each of the desert "castles" is different in style and purpose and all are well worth seeing.

Une excursion qui permet de découvrir une partie différente de l'histoire de la Jordanie. Ali Abu Hani a été ponctuel, agréable et très sympathique, je recommande.
