If you are looking for a great view of the Sea of Galilee and are unable to travel to the Holy Land, look no further. Umm Qais offers outstanding views of the Sea of Galilee, as well as ancient ruins. I highly recommend visiting Umm Qais to anyone visiting Jordan.

Having a two week trip gave time to explore Jordan at a leisurely pace and to include Umm Qais, a 2.hour drive from Jerash. It was certainly worth the journey. Tourists were thin on the ground and the only coach in the car park was for a party of elderly Jordanian men and women who were enjoying a picnic.
The contrast between Jerash and Umm Qais is striking. Firstly, Umm Qais is built from dark basalt which, together with the general air of abandonment, gives a somewhat lonely atmosphere. The buildings have had comparatively little restoration after earthquakes damaged the site at various times in history. Recent excavations were not in evidence, perhaps because this is a turbulent region close to Syria, Israel, Lebanon and the disputed Golan Heights which are separated from Jordan by a demilitarised zone.
It’s a large site with layers of history including Roman, Greek and Ottoman era antiquities as well as twentieth century occupation evidenced by the presence of a school, now the restaurant. From the terrace of the restaurant you will be rewarded with great views over the Sea of Galilee towards Tiberias, the Golan heights and Syria.

The ruined castle and archeological site were not very busy when we arrived on a Friday morning The ticket office was to the right of the large car park and a couple of local guides were available, if required. The site was larger than we had imagined with fabulous views if Lake Tiberius (aka The Sea of Galilee or Kinneret) and the Syrian border country. The amphitheatre complemented the ones at Jerash although this one had been damaged during the conflicts with Israel in the 1960-70s. A temple with columns still in place was notable. The place was very peaceful and worth visiting if time permits. The site is not strenuous to get around and there are a small number of stalls selling trinkets, food and drink nearby.

The chariot wheel tracks in the ancient street were awesome. A lot of ruins here, many not excavated. If a reasonably clear day, great views of noteworthy landmarks. JordanPass accepted no problem. The underground mausoleum was great!
In a water is wet observation, the local "guides" lurking about are NOT to be used or trusted. Local "guide" Amjad will rip you off like a true scam artist. Your "free" one hour tour keeps getting dragged out and further away, and of course not free at the end. Also - You do NOT want a guided to "Jesus's Cave".
Worth the trip, go see it!

The site is interesting with Roman ruins. It is still in progress of being maintained, but it is nice to walk around there is a splendid view on Tiberia lake and neighbouring countries, especially at sunset

Lovely castle and Roman ruins, including a remarkably well maintained Roman street from well over a thousand years ago. Total time needed here is two hours and do hire a guide (with a lanyard to ensure it's a certified/registered tour guide). There is also a lovely restaurant you can stop by after visiting this area to have a snack while overlooking the ruins, Jordan Valley and the Sea of Galilei.

We had this included in our tour after a stay in Ajloun. We knew very little about it before we started to read, but its definitely worth a visit. Its similar to Jerash but nowhere near as renovated or busy. There were about 8 other tourists there when we visited. We didn't take a guide and the Bradt guidebook we had gave us plenty of details.
The views over Lake Tiberius and beyond to Palestine and Syria were spectacular.
Looking back I'd have liked to have stayed a night close by so we could have stayed longer, but we had to get down the Jordan Valley to the Dead Sea that day (before dark), so an hour or so allowed us to get a sense of the place.
There's a lot of digs still going on.

I found this site to be quite interesting, though for the 2 hours it takes to get to it from Amman, it wouldn't only be worth it if it's on your route, or if you're doing a full day tour to include Ajulun Castle and Jerash as we did.
We had a guide for all of this whom could explain the site to us which was very good. I feel without a guide, you'd walk around in 20 minutes and be done.

This is a very large site with very little to actually do within the walls. Most places are occupied and were closed during our visit. The amphitheater was the highlight, but the best shot of it is on the road in from the west (outside the site itself). There are a few more things to see - museum & pillars - but none were standouts. We wouldn’t recommend that you make the trek from Amman just for Umm Qais, but if you’re driving around the north taking in some of the other sites, then it’s probably worth the stop.
