Madaba
Your Driver will pick you up from the hotel at 8:00 and transfer you to Madaba . Best known for its spectacular Byzantine and Umayyad mosaics, Madaba is home to the famous 6th century Mosaic Map of Jerusalem and the Holy Land. With two million pieces of vividly coloured local stone, it depicts hills and valleys, villages and towns as far as the Nile Delta. The Madaba Mosaic Map covers the floor of the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George, which is located northwest of the city centre. The church was built in 1896 AD, over the remains of a much earlier 6th century Byzantine church. The mosaic panel enclosing the Map was originally around 15.6 X 6m, 94 sq.m., only about a quarter of which is preserved.

100% recommended and looking forward to returning soon
We thank the agency for adapting to our needs; we had little time and inconvenient schedules. However, they were always present. From the airport pickup, we felt safe. It is a very professional and punctual agency. We spent 2 days with them fulfilling the planned itinerary. Both the driver and interpreter were very friendly, attentive, caring, and kind. Thanks to them, we experienced a different version of the country than what we see on TV. It is a very safe country with good infrastructure. I recommend visiting Jornadia, and if it is with them, the experience will be much better.

Jordan is safe and brilliant
Amman Wonderful jordan 1057640786 We had an amazing trip made possible by our wonderful driver and guide Sadek … the accommodation was excellent .. Jordan is a fascinating and place to visit it’s such a shame so many people cannot access due to the current political situation .. thank you to our guide in Petra .. we want to read your book … this was a trip of a lifetime which we will not forget
Response from the operator: Dear 621fionak, What a pleasure to read your heartfelt review — thank you for sharing it with us. We’re delighted that Sadek made your journey so enjoyable, and that you appreciated the accommodations and overall experience. Jordan truly is a special place, and it’s wonderful to know it left such a strong impression on you. Your kind mention of the Petra guide will surely make him smile — we’ll pass along your message (and yes, we hope you get to read his book one day!). We’re very grateful you chose to travel with us, and even happier that it became a trip of a lifetime for you. Warm wishes, The Team of Jordan Horizons Tours

Very nice and safe trip to dead sea and Petra with driver Fad.
I had a very nice short visit to Jordan everything very well organized by Jordan Horizon and my driver Mr. Fad who did a great job. After we left Amman we visited an old church, mount Nebo and the dead sea shore before arriving at my hotel in Petra, called Old Village. Very nice place with great views to Petra. The next morning the highlight of the trip: visit amazing Petra! A great experience with guide Mahmoud who explained everything about the history and astronomical background of the site. During my visit I always felt safe and well looked after my Mr. Fad. Many thanks!
Response from the operator: Dear Vacation28722032500, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It’s wonderful to hear that your short visit to Jordan was smooth, enjoyable, and well organized. We’re especially glad that Fad took good care of you throughout the journey and made you feel safe and comfortable along the way. We’re also happy you enjoyed the visit to Petra with Mahmoud — his knowledge always adds a special depth to the experience. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again for a longer stay next time. Warm regards, The Team of Jordan Horizons Tours

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amman.
How much does Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $220 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amman usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Amman is not rushed.
Is Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Amman, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Amman can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Amman and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Amman to Petra Via Madaba, Mt Nebo and Dead Sea Day Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Amman within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Amman?
+
On Outty we rank every Amman experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Amman: Petra and Wadi rum Private/Group Full day Tour, From Amman :Private or Group Full day tour to Petra, Private Two Day Tour To Petra, Wadi Rum and Dead Sea from Amman. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Amman?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Amman?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
