A very full day, and a good one - We modified our itinerary with prior agreement from the tour operator and driver Nidal. Instead of Bethany, we visited the Dead Sea Panoramic Complex and Museum, 10 km from the resort beaches. (Not the Museum at the Lowest Place on Earth, which is too far south and caused confusion at first.) Nidal picked us up on time and first took us to an exchange house, which got us out of a currency jam. Then Mt Nebo and the amazing mosaics in the church, then a nearby mosaic factory to learn how they are made (and shop, of course, but we didn't buy any). Then St. Georges Church in Madaba to see the historic mosaic map of Palestine in Byzantine times, and the site of beheading of John the Baptist. (Call that a "bonus" if you want.) Then scenic high road to Museum, then to Holiday Inn for our Dead Sea dip and late lunch. And finally, at sunset, back to another mosaic shop. Nidal has some remarkable views on what's really going on behind the scenes in Middle East politics - not what you expect or hear on western media. And lots of facts and insights on daily life in Jordan. A very full day, and a good one. Recommended.

Couldn’t have had a better travel companion than Mr. M.Harb - I loved the history that St. John and St. George had. Wadi mujib was one of the best experiences I had and is a must visit with Mohammad Harb

Jordan is over rated!!! - I stayed in Jordan for 7 days and visited all the top attractions. Throughout my stay I felt Jordan is an over rated country. The weather is unpleasant, prices are exorbitant and people are conservative and do not know basic English. If you are into history, you may find the place interesting. For others, it is not worth your money. A 3-4 day trip to Jordan is more than enough.
