The blue-domed King Abdullah I Mosque, built in the 1980s by the late King Hussein as a memorial to his grandfather, is open to Non-Muslim visitors. The nave with an area of 1,615 m2 has the capacity to house 3,000 worshippers. It is octogonal and distiguished for not having pillars inside. Its dome of 35 m in diameter has a height of 31 meters. A source of radiation was placed in the middle taking the form of a golden star culminating in the Ninety Nine Most Beautiful Names of Allah surrounding the dome's neck. The suspended chandelier of 168 lanterns consists of three circles with the Holy Quranic Verse with the word Allah recurring on every lantern. The fertile land is expressed in the form of a red carpet made of an ornamental textile of recurring patterns meant to direct worshippers toward the Kiblah. All the walls, including the Kiblah, the pulpit, and the Mihrab are panelled with wooden and marble oriels.
Jabal al-Qala is one of the seven mountains of Amman, which the Ammonians have long taken as the seat of their rule in the city, followed by Greece, romans and Byzantines who occupied the city respectively until it was occupied by the Islamic conquest in the 7th century AD, where the Umayyad Palace was built on its top. Mount Qalaa in Amman emerged as the capital of the Ammonians.
The Roman Amphitheatre is a Roman theater located in the eastern part of the Jordanian capital Amman, precisely at the foot of Mount Jufa on one of the hills opposite Amman Castle. Greek writing on one of the pillars indicates that this amphitheater was built in honor of Emperor Antonius Pius, who visited Amman in 130 AD.

Amman is amazing city full of history and nice people Completely worth to visit And for sure the way Petra Limo arranging this tour is amazing
Amman is a great city and enjoyable from the old to modern part But what was really amazing our driver Hana driving skills in the traffic and how he could find a parking So if you plan to visit Jordan don't try to drive by your self as it's completely impossible and use expert agency like Petra Limo
The tour included all the sights we wanted to visit in Amman And driver was so kind and helpful Completely great tour
Nabil was an exceptional tour operator for our full-day Amman city tour. His deep knowledge of the city and its history made the tour both informative and engaging. Nabil demonstrated remarkable patience throughout the day and went above and beyond by helping us with additional requests like currency exchange and souvenir shopping. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and would highly recommend his tour services.
10/10 tour from all the sides sites was great, driver friendly and nice, car is new and clean we had a great time and if we will be back to Jordan we will book it again
Petra Limo organized this tour for us, The natural beauty, warm people, and amazing sites were memorable and amazing. This was one of our best private tours we have did.
Excellent tour, Khalid was a fantastic driver who took care of our every need. This tour also gives you a better chance to spend more time in Amman we can say we enjoyed this so much
Raed was the best driver we have had so far in our trip. He was a very respectful, kind and nice person. He was always available for us, He took us to eat konafa, gave us plenty of good advices for the rest of the trip, he arranged basically everything for us for this tour, I would highly recommend him for this trip, His English was very good so communication was never a problem. we highly recommend this trip to get the best experience in Jordan.
What a fantastic day we had and all of us enjoy it all the thanks for Ramzi our driver that make this day unforgettable with his amazing skills
The experience was truly amazing! Our driver Ramzi was really helpful, kind and welcoming! We definitely recommend this tour to visitors coming to Jordan! and by the way Jordan is safe and nothing to worry about.
Can’t say enough good things about this tour, He knew all the best places to go and made the trip very enjoyable by proving so many Jordanian sweets, we set at the shop and he asked from everything so we can try it all, and everything was amazing, and even we took couple of boxes to eat during our stay in Jordan. Incredible experience that allowed me to make new friends and memories to last a lifetime. Highly recommend!
I had an amazing time. The sights were stunning. my driver made sure i always knew when and where to meet. he was super accommodating in general. for sure recommend tours with him! thank you Ramzi
we booked this tour because of the reviews. And it still exceeded my expectations. Words can’t describe some experiences. and i would like to say this was worth every cent we paid
tour was more than great, we enjoyed our time so much. if you visiting jordan you must book amman tour as it's have so many sites to visit and you will enjoy it
this tour is so great and for sure you can't see all the places in Amman without book it with a company like Petra, we thought Amman is small but after this for sure it's not small and need a full day to visit and enjoy with, do not try to do it by your self otherwise you will not see it right
We spent a very enjoyable day with our driver/guide Mohammad. He was very friendly, knowledgable and flexible as we revised the itinerary because we had already been to the Roman Theatre. He was on time and our communication with him was also excellent. We highly recommend Petra Limo and especially Mohammad.
The person refused to come even he didn't reply my text. I got a refund but with a deduction of 40 AED.
now if you are crazy you can do this tour by your self, but for sure you will not see the same sites Petra will show you, also to drive inside Amman, find a parking and not get scammed by taxi driver or Uber driver, then just book it with Petra, because they take care of you show you all the great places in Amman and you will not have any problem at all and if you lucky to get Mohammad to be your driver for this tour then you wil enjoy it 100%
we traveled for a lot of country's but didn't meet any driver like Mohammad, he's so great, friendly and helpful, we was so sad when he left us in the end of the tour, and hope to meet him again
the tour was so great from the start to finish, we had a great time visiting amman city with anwar, and he showed us many great streets hidden inside the city of amman
just what I wanted, car turned up on time only 1 hour after booking and did a brilliant job of parking right next to the citadel, the amphitheatre and the main mosque, as well as providing me with a delicious local treat. although just a driver with limited english, he gave me good basic information and was very pleasant. door to door private experience for not much different to a group tour price.
during our tour in Jordan we had extra day, so we booked this tour with Petra and it was a day from our life, we didn't except that Amman have all this amazing sites, so for sure we are glad that we did it
The driver was kind and very nice. Amman is amazing city full of sites amazing. It's been a great tour. thank you.
Sami was our driver in this tour and he was extremely professional and funny if you want to visit Amman, we recommended to do it with Petra Limo
