Activity itinerary

Al Salt (Pass by)
After hotel pick-up in Amman with your private leisure vehicle and English-Speaking Driver who doubles up as your guide, travel north to ancient As-Salt (UNESCO World Heritage), once earmarked as a capital of Jordan. Built on hills, As-Salt was ruled by the Romans and Byzantines before enjoying prosperity under the Ottomans from the 1890s to the 1920s. Walk with a local guide taking in all the colours, smells, textures, and sounds of the city and experience As-Salt’s daily life. Get a feel of its lifestyle with all its magnificence.
Abu Jaber Museum
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
This walking tour takes you to the town’s main attractions and best experiences. Visiting the Historic Old Salt Museum, the beautiful Abu Jaber House, representing the era of prosperity in the city at the end of the 19th century. It has been converted into the Historical Old Salt Museum, showcasing the history of the golden age of the city. Al Ain Plaza: As-Salt’s old down town surrounded by Hammam Street, Al-Eskafyeh stairs and Al Khayateen stairs. Watch the elders play a game of Mangaleh; the most famous game in As-Salt,

passed down through generations. Visit the Great Mosque, which was once the oldest mosque in the city, was originally constructed in the 13th century and was later rebuilt in 2007 in Al Ain Plaza, the centre of the city, reflecting a mix of modern and traditional architecture. As a town that appreciates interfaith coexistence, the stairs of the mosque lead to the church of the Good Shepherd. Savour the taste of traditional bread of As-Salt at A’shour Bakery, Shrak, baked with old-style tools that were used throughout history. Get a true taste of the local scene at the farmers’ market with independent local shops selling fresh fruits and vegetables from local farms. Shop intricately-made silver and gold at the jewellery market, where you can find handmade accessories and authentic designs.

  • 30m
Visit Hammam Street, the main shopping district in As-Salt for over 150 years. Built between 1881-1884, Hammam Street is a pedestrian zone, paved to resemble the old high street. Walk Al-Eskafyeh Street, a short street that connects Hammam Street to Al-Khader Street. Eskafi means shoemaker in Arabic, where the role of the shoemaker doesn’t just exist in children’s books: he is still very much in business on the Al-Eskafyeh stairs, making and repairing shoes. As-Salt has preserved and supported its independent local business owners, holding on to its economic originality with different sweet shops, butchers, perfumeries, nuts shops, and spice shops. Enjoy free time to peruse all these shops, and snap up some souvenirs (at your own expense). Optional lunch at a local restaurant: City Balcony, Al Gherbal or Beit Aziz; or home-made visit experience for an authentic meal. Your tour concludes with a hotel drop-off in Amman.
