Madaba is one of the Middle East's most remarkable living museums and this intimate 2-hour walking tour with a knowledgeable local guide brings its extraordinary story to life. Walk through 2,000 years of history as you visit St. George's Church — home to the world-famous 6th century Byzantine Mosaic Map of the Holy Land — the Madaba Archaeological Park, the Archaeological Museum and the magnificent Shrine of St. John the Baptist.
