La salida es desde Ammán. Después de recogerlo en su hotel, suba a un vehículo climatizado con un conductor privado de habla inglesa y Wi-Fi a bordo.

Además, los monjes egipcios construyeron un pequeño monasterio en la cima en memoria de Moisés. En el siglo IV, esta iglesia fue luego reconstruida en una basílica. Esta basílica, que todavía se encuentra en el monte Nebo, cuenta con una colección de mosaicos bizantinos bien conservados. Los mosaicos ilustran imágenes de la vida silvestre y la caza.

Found I had an extra day in Amman so booked this trip at the last minute. Picked up by Ibrahim right on time. He smartly suggested an alternate itinerary to help avoid the heat of the day, so we started at the Baptismal site. Very interesting to see the old church locations. A group was also baptized in the Jordan while we were there which was cool to see. Then off to Mt Nebo. Awesome views of the Dead Sea and Jericho. And the old mosaics in the church were intricate. Quick stop at a mosaic store where they showed handcrafted mosaics painstakingly done by women which can take them months to complete. Then off to St George’s church and the Beheading of John the Baptist Church. Lots of interesting things in John the Baptist Church including the old well and the bell tower where you can see the surrounding area. On way back, Ibrahim made a quick pit stop and got us some juice from a stand which was refreshing after a long day. Quick notes and “good to knows”: none of the itinerary is covered by Jordan Pass which was disappointing since I thought a couple of the places would be. Ibrahim had water available which was very nice and needed. No food stops, so plan accordingly or work that out with the driver. Overall a good experience.
