Descripción general

Some places hold one chapter of history. Pella and Umm Qais hold nearly all of them. This is a day that moves through civilizations the way most journeys move through miles — from Canaanite foundations and biblical settlements at Pella, one of the oldest continuously inhabited sites in Jordan, to the black basalt grandeur of Roman Gadara, where colonnaded streets once echoed with the footsteps of the Decapolis. Between the two, the mountain landscapes of the north unfold in quiet green terraces, offering moments of stillness as memorable as the ruins themselves. You'll trace layers left by Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and early Islamic hands, then stand at a viewpoint where Jordan, Palestine, Syria, and the shimmering Sea of Galilee share a single horizon. A generous Jordanian lunch and the warmth of local hospitality complete a day built for those who want their history vivid, their views vast, and their journey unforgettable — guided throughout by a licensed expert devoted to telling both stories in full.

  • Pella's Canaanite, Roman & Byzantine ruins
  • Scenic countryside stop at Umm Al-Naml
  • Umm Qais's black basalt Roman Theater
  • Panoramic views over the Jordan Valley & Sea of Galilee
  • Traditional Jordanian lunch
