Aperçu du circuit

Upon arrival in Madaba, discover the ancient mosaic city dating back to the 2nd century. See the 6th-century mosaic map of Jordan and the Holy Land at the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George. Next, visit the Greek Catholic Church of St. John the Baptist, a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

Built in the 19th century, the church stands as a testament to Jordan's rich Christian heritage. Then, head to Mount Nebo, a holy mountain in Jordan that rises approximately 817 meters above sea level. Mount Nebo holds religious significance as an important site of Jewish-Christian pilgrimage. It is the place where Moses first viewed the Promised Land from the summit, and it is where the Prophet Moses is said to have died.

Visit the mountaintop church, built by Egyptian monks in the 4th century. Inside, see a collection of well-preserved Byzantine mosaics, depicting wildlife and hunting scenes. You can also enjoy a panoramic view of the Holy Land and the Jordan River Valley from the summit. Next, head to the site of Jesus Christ's baptism, located on the Jordanian side of the Jordan River. Known as Bethany beyond the Jordan in biblical times, it is considered one of the three holiest sites
