Per PersonDiscover two of northern Jordan’s most important historic sites on a Jerash Ajloun tour from Amman. This private day trip combines the remarkable Roman ruins of Jerash with the medieval fortress of Ajloun. Together, they offer a convenient way to experience different periods of Jordan’s history in one journey.
Your day begins with pickup from your hotel or agreed location in Amman.

After exploring Jerash, continue through the green hills of northern Jordan toward Ajloun Castle, also known as Qala’at ar-Rabad. The hilltop fortress dates to the 12th century. It played an important defensive role in the region during the Ayyubid period.
At Ajloun Castle, explore its stone towers, defensive walls, historic chambers, and museum areas. In addition, enjoy panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. Weather conditions determine how far you can see.
