Private Half Day Tour of the Baptist Sights

Description

Your tour begins in Amman towards the Jordan Valley to visit the baptism sight recognized by the Vatican. "Bethany Beyond the Jordan", where John preached and baptized Jesus, has long been known in the Bible and from the Byzantine and medieval texts. The site is located on the east bank of the Jordan River.

You will also get to visit the site Tell a-Kharrar and Elijah's Hill which has made stunning archaeological discoveries since the late 1990's, where the site has revealed pottery, coins and architectural remains from a 5th century Byzantine monastery.

This is a private tour so please list any special interests you have (art, architecture, history, culture) at time of booking to alert our driver, so that he or she can better prepare for your private tour.
