Walking
From the center of Madaba, head south on King Abdullah II Street towards the Madaba Archaeological Park. Continue walking until you reach the junction at the main square. From there, take a left onto Queen Noor Street and walk for about 1 kilometer. You will see signs for the bus station on your right. Enter the bus station and look for a bus heading to Jerusalem. The buses are frequent, but it's a good idea to ask a local if you're unsure about which bus to take.
Bus
Once you arrive at the bus station, purchase a ticket to Jerusalem. The fare is typically inexpensive. After boarding, the bus will take you towards the border. Make sure to have your passport ready for inspection. Once you arrive at the Allenby Bridge border crossing, follow the signs for pedestrians to cross into Israel. After crossing, you can catch a local bus or taxi to Ein Gedi Eco Park. Buses to Ein Gedi can be found at the bus station near the border.
Taxi
If you prefer a more direct route after crossing the border, you can take a taxi from the Allenby Bridge to Ein Gedi Eco Park. Just inform the taxi driver of your destination, and they will take you directly to the park. Be sure to agree on a fare before starting your journey to avoid any misunderstandings.
