I had an absolutely lovely evening with Basel of Zaid yours seeing panoramic views of Amman in the evening followed by Iftar with at Hashem in downtown Amman.
I got the see the sights including the Citadel and the Blue Mosque with the burkah and the Amphi theater while seeing Amman from up high
The Iftar was most especially the best part of the tour and a memory I will treasure
Basel personally broke bread with me with three types of hummus and the Majool dates and Kunafi at the end as the sweet

We combined the panoramic tour with the day tour of Amman. They were both spectacular. Our guide was absolutely amazing. The lunch we enjoyed was outstanding.

We actually were provided the flexibility to adjust our tour when we arrived and added visits to Maraba, Mt. Nebo and a float in the Dead Sea to our itinerary for a reasonable additional cost. Btw- we asked for airport pickup (instead of Hotel pickup) which was also provided for a reasonable additional cost. This saved much time and made our visit much more productive. Hassan was our guide and took great care of us all day and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
