What To Expect

After pickup from your Amman hotel, hop inside your comfortable, climate-controlled vehicle with your private driver. Remember to bring sun cream and a sun hat, plus a towel and bathing suit for the Dead Sea.

Then, gaze at Jordan’s desert landscapes as you travel south to Madaba, the ‘City of Mosaics.’ On route, your driver will share information about the region, but will not act as your guide at the destinations.

Upon arrival, hop out at Madaba’s St. George’s Church, the basilica that’s home to the famous Mosaic Map: a 6th-century floor mosaic depicting the Holy Land and Jordan. Walk around this intricate masterpiece, and admire its rich renderings of Jerusalem, Jericho, the Dead Sea and other biblical sites.

Next, continue to Mount Nebo, the hill where the prophet Moses was said to have been granted a view of the Promised Land before he died. Asborb the panoramas over the Jordan Valley from the hillside, which on a clear day, can stretch as as far as Jericho and Jerusalem. Then, view the relics and still-vivid 6th-century floor mosaics on show inside Nebo's memorial church.

Drive on to the Dead Sea, the salt-rich lake located at 1,312 feet (400 meters) below sea level, the Earth’s lowest point. Admire the sparkling, mountain-backed waters, and savor a tasty buffet lunch at the Dead Sea Spa Hotel.

Duly refreshed, choose to relax on a public beach or the beach of a Dead Sea hotel (additional cost). Change into your bathing suit and wade into the salty waters, experiencing their famous buoyancy and perhaps striking the classic pose of reading a newspaper as you float.

After experiencing the waters and spending time as you wish, reconvene with your driver for your return journey, finishing with a hotel drop-off in Amman.

Excellent day trip from Amman

Paul_N, Jan 2024

Incredible tour. Getting to stand where Moses stood was so uplifting. It's really inspiring, even if you aren't particularly religious. Mr. Mint was an excellent driver and guide, he did a great job explaining everything. Highly recommend this tour and his service.

Dead Sea highlight the others were good too

JooTim_O, Nov 2023

Hosam with R&H was a great driver. He also shared some info along the way. The best part was of course the Dead Sea but the walk under the St John’s church was pretty cool and the bell tower The Dead Sea is a different experience and the food provided by the Crowne plaza was good. It is a buffet and the facilities there are spot on and they even have the mud that you can put on urself Had a great time

Highly enjoyable trip

JENNIFER_S, Mar 2023

Mahmoud our driver looked after us excellently from start to finish,sorting out all our tickets and showing us where to go at each venue. We had an unexpected bonus stop en route to learn how mosaics are made and another to photograph some camels by the roadside. Floating in the Dead Sea was a surreal and enjoyable experience and the lunch buffet was high quality,especially the puddings and sweets.

A day to remember in Western Jordan!

CARMELO_D, Feb 2023

The day spent in Madaba, Mount Nebo and the Dead Sea was one of sheer appreciation for the local art of mosaic making, one of humbleness and one of laughter as we covered ourselves in mud in the dead sea. The tour is an excellent one and includes visits to some of the most remarkable parts of Jordan! The buffet lunch and time spent in the Dead Sea was also incredible. Thank you to our awesome guide, Mr. Mint, who took care of us so well during the trip!

Excellent tour to the Dead Sea and Madaba

Simon_T, Feb 2023

Very good trip to the mosaics in Madaba, to lovely Mount Nebo and to the hotel on the Dead Sea for mud on the kin and a bath in the waters, followed by lunch. Ramzi, the guide was amazing!

Great guide (Sameer) and a wonderful trip

robert_m, Mar 2022

We got a very nice and great tour guide whose name is Sameer. He not only became our friend but got very personal with him like a brother. The tour is excellent with the food and the place we stayed for a day at the Dead Sea. It's a great itinerary!

Awesome and incredible

Robert_C, Jan 2022

It was a wonderful and just incredible experience. Mt Nebo was amazing and swimming in Dead Sea was awesome and inch at hotel was excellent. Muhammad my guide/driver was just excellent. Very friendly and he really took care of me nicely.. Great guy!! I recommend everyone do this tour and do it with Muhammad.😀

Overpriced, would like to discuss a refund

Nadia_S, Apr 2020

Unfortunately this expensive tour did not deliver. The whole tour lasted 2 hours only, including journey time. From the details given I expected to see Mount Nebo, but the deliver only pointed it from a distance. Also the 'trip to the dead sea' was only a rushed 30 minutes visit to a hotel. We did not get spend anywhere near enough time. To pay £100 for 2 hours of rushed driving is a rip off. We were told by the locals we could have spent a whole day trip to the dead sea for a third of the price. Very disappointed, and would like to discuss a refund.

Arrival to the Dead Sea

He was prompt informed and very well mannered. Would be happy to have him accomplish me on another tour

A lot of history is in the area. Our tour was suppose to be private but wasn't, so this needs to be clear and priced accordingly. The view is awesome at Mt. Nebo.
