Things To Do
Dead Sea
We highly recommend a day trip to the Dead Sea! It’s easily accessible via Uber or Careem, and many hotels offer day passes that provide access to their pools and private beaches. Since prices and availability can change, we suggest contacting the hotels in advance to confirm details. Some great options include the Marriott, Hilton, and Mövenpick. We’ll keep this page updated with more recommendations as we finalize them!
Wadi Mujib
Wadi Mujib is an awesome option for anyone up for a hike that includes a bit of swimming! We’ll share more details on how to book closer to the wedding, and if there’s enough interest, we’d be happy to help arrange a private tour or guided hike for the group. Let us know!
Amman Citadel
The Amman Citadel is a must-see, located right in the heart of downtown Amman. It offers stunning views of old Amman, making it a perfect spot for photos. The Amman Citadel is super easy to reach by Uber or Careem. There’s even a breakfast spot on-site if you want to grab a bite while taking in the views. Alternatively, the area is surrounded by plenty of restaurants where you can enjoy some local flavors after your visit.
Souk Jara
Souk Jara is a charming open-air market held on Fridays, but even if you’re not there on market day, the surrounding area is worth a visit! Stroll along Rainbow Street, a lively area filled with shops, cafes, and local vibes. For food and drinks, we recommend grabbing a bite at Falafel Al Quds (Hatoon's absolute favorite). For amazing views, check out Old Town Café's rooftop or head to Wild Jordan, where you can enjoy a relaxing spot with great views while sipping on tea, fresh juices, or even a light meal.
