Tours, sightseeing tours, activities & things to do | Viator.comPrivate Half Day Tour to Um Qais
You will visit Um Qais where the Ottoman governor's house has been restored and opened as a museum is which is well worth the visit. Um Qais offers beautiful views over the Northern Jordan valley, the Sea of Galilee, and the Golan Heights.
Um Qais is known for its beautiful view over the Palestinian countryside, overlooking Lake Tiberius. Many people of Palestinian origin come here to sit on the terrace and look out over the lands where they used to live and where many of their relatives still live.
GUIDES
As the Ministry of Jordan does not allow a driver to also be a guide, there is not a guide included in the cost of your tour. Your driver will be very informative and be able to point out and explain sites as you drive past. Many people prefer to visit the sites and follow the walking tracks on their own, although there will be local guides available for hire on arrival at Mt Nebo for an approximate cost of US$15.00 per visit. Your driver will be happy to assist you with any questions or exchange of money.
This is a private tour so please list any special interests you have (art, architecture, history, culture) at time of booking to alert our driver, so that he or she can better prepare for your private tour.
