What are people saying about Jerash (Gerasa)

Natalie_R, May 2026

Great Day Trip from Amman

We had Omar as our lovely driver for the day and he made a long day easy! It was nice to have someone to ask about location guides and pricing. Omar would also pull over for beautiful vistas or tell us a bit about the area we were in. It made the whole day go so smoothly! We loved our time visiting the sites and would recommend.

Jerash and Ajloon were...

Jerash and Ajloon were both really interesting and the scenery and views were amazing. Umm Qais, however, was not that great and much of it was closed in January - not worth the extra drive. My driver, Ashraf, was very pleasant, flexible and accommodating.

Great day trip from Amman

Bader was an absolutely fantastic guide for our trip to Umm Qais and Jerash. He was communicative, incredibly helpful, and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him. He went the extra mile to make sure we all (especially our 5-year old daughter) had a great experience. Even in the rain, Umm Qais and Jerash were still both amazing.

Great tour. Well...

Great tour. Well organized. Our guide Adnan was great. He even bought tea for us in the morning with his own money.

Saed contacted us prior...

Saed contacted us prior to our excursion to give us details about pick up etc. He picked us up right on time and drove us to Um Qais first given the times. It was so much more than I expected and a really long walk through old ancient ruins. We could have arranged a guide (would need cash for) but we opted to do it ourselves. Saed always said "this should take around x minutes/hours to visit and meet me here when you are done" He also was clear that we could take more time if needed, but we wanted to be on time to make sure that we could visit all 3 sites, which didn't disappoint. It was quite windy for our visits but the sun warmed us and it felt like Scottish summer! We next visited Ajloun castle, a crusader's castle, that had significance for christians and muslims. From both sites, you could see the Syrian border, which was picturesque. Next, we visited Jerash and had opted for the guide, which was worth it! This reminded me of our visit to Ephesus, with still so much to find but so much to see that is still standing. Jerash was our favourite site, and I highly recommend seeing it! Lunch was fine, it had a great view from the terrace.

Reliable and professional service

I enjoyed my trip to Jerash with Ahmad. He was excellent from start to finish. He contacted me ahead of the pickup to introduce himself and confirm everything, arrived early but was patient and never made me feel rushed, and the ride itself was smooth and safe. Great communication and a very professional experience. And Jerash is a must see! Highly recommend!
