Leave Amman hotel with your own private leisure vehicle and English-Speaking Driver who doubles up as your guide to visit the Islamic Castle of Ajloun built by the Muslims during the 12th Century in the time of Saladin for defensive purposes during the time of the Crusaders. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and green north fields from its unique towers.
