From Amman: Day Trip to Madaba, Mount Nebo, Baptism Site, and The Dead Sea

Embark on a full-day private tour from Amman to four of Jordan’s most remarkable landmarks — Madaba, Mount Nebo, the Baptism Site of Jesus Christ, and the Dead Sea. Explore the ancient city of Madaba, known as the “City of Mosaics,” and marvel at the famous 6th-century Mosaic Map of the Holy Land inside St. George’s Church. Continue to Mount Nebo, a sacred mountain where Moses is said to have viewed the Promised Land, and visit the Memorial Church adorned with intricate Byzantine mosaics.

Next, journey to Bethany Beyond the Jordan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site believed to be the place where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. Walk along ancient paths and feel the site’s spiritual energy before heading to the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth. Unwind by floating in its mineral-rich waters, rejuvenate with a natural mud treatment, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at a Dead Sea resort. With private transport, an English-speaking driver, and flexible add-ons for lunch and entry fees, this tour combines Jordan’s religious heritage, natural beauty, and cultural depth in one unforgettable day.
