Description

Experience Amman with a guided tour that includes a Dabke dance class at a professional studio led by a local instructor, then continue to Amman Citadel، then traditional dinner at Hashem Restaurant.
Begin your evening at a dance studio in central Amman. Take part in a 2.5-hour Dabke dance class, learning the foundational footwork and cultural history of this traditional Levantine folk dance. Enjoy live dawwul drumming and a final group performance, which will be filmed and shared with all participants.

After the class, head to the Amman Citadel for a dusk visit. As the light drops behind the western hills, the Roman Temple of Hercules glows amber, the Umayyad Palace colonnade casts long shadows, and the lights of Amman's 19 hills begin to emerge below. Your guide delivers a focused 30-minute narrative covering the Ammonite Iron Age fortifications, the Roman temple complex built by Emperor Marcus Aurelius, and the 8th-century Umayyad Palace built by the early Islamic caliphs — three civilizations on one hilltop, each visible as a distinct archaeological layer, each with its own story.

Next, descend from the Citadel via the Al-Khalha Stairs as night falls. Walk down the ancient stone steps leading from Weibdeh to Downtown, lit by street lamps and the glow of small coffee shops, walls painted with murals, and cats watching from windowsills.

End your evening at Hashem Restaurant, open 24 hours, seven days a week, serving the same perfect falafel, hummus, and ful medames it has served for decades. After the energy of the dance class, the grandeur of the Citadel, and the poetry of the staircase descent, the simplicity of Hashem's tables — plastic chairs, paper napkins, food that needs nothing — is exactly right. Frequented by both royalty and laborers, Hashem is the great democratic table of Amman — the place where the city's entire social spectrum meets over the same perfect bowl of hummus.
