After pick up from your Amman hotel, set off into the bustling Jabal Amman district. If there’s something you want to see more of the same area, tell your escort as your itinerary can be tailored around you as it’s a private and personal tour. Head for Rainbow Street, a road that encapsulates Amman’s energy and arts scene. Stroll by bookshops, cafés, and 1920s villas. Pause at the Rainbow Theater and traditional Al Pasha Hammam bathhouse. Savor some street snacks or breakfast such as a “falafel sandwich” (deep-fried chickpea patty) or “kunafa”, a local cheese-filled pastry encrusted with pistachios. Explore Malouf Street, nicknamed “Souk Jara”, known for its summer market (Operational on Fridays). Visit Jordan River Designs and Bani Hamida, two local crafts galleries. You may saunter down Mango Street, past the historical buildings of the Royal Film Commission, Nabad Gallery, and Books@Cafe. Browse the handmade goods at Wild Jordan, and artisans’ hotspot of Beit Shocair. Break up your exploring with free time to souvenir-shops. If you are interested in a street food experience on this walking tour it can be arranged for you to try some of the most famous street food shops like Abu Jbara for Falafel, to be paid by you directly in distention by you. Set off into Jabal Al-Weibdeh by vehicle, one of Amman’s oldest and hippest districts. Hear about Al - Weibdeh’s history, and learn why it’s emerging as an artistic hotspot. Stroll the winding streets, admiring the stone buildings and leafy lanes, and tune into the area’s contemporary art scene. Visit the trendy art galleries (at your own expense) showcasing the city’s contemporary art. Absorb the creative vibe at the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, and Makan Arts Space, an alternative arts venue.

The guide was sweet and well meaning but it wasn’t a walking tour as advertised and more of a drive through the city. In which case you can just get a driver and not pay so much
