39 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TRAVEL TO JORDAN

Jordan is a fascinating country full of unique global attractions, ancient history, delicious food, warm hospitable people, and endless adventure. 

If you’re planning to travel to Jordan, there are some important things that you should know first. There are a lot of cultural, religious, and general planning considerations you need to consider. 

Jordanians are friendly and hospitable

Try to speak to the locals as you travel through Jordan – even sit down to tea with them – and hire local Jordan tour guides, who are a wealth of knowledge on culture and history. 

Jordan is quite a liberal country

Their constitution allows for freedom of press and free speech HOWEVER, you can’t speak bad about the Royal family – as that will land you in jail! 

Getting to Jordan

I flew into Queen Alia on Qatar Airways. My route was Raleigh, North Carolina to JFK, to Doha (Qatar) to Amman. It took about 24 hours altogether. 

Travel Insurance

The world is far too uncertain at the moment to take the risk of losing your travel investment AND having to pay more should something unfortunate happen. Thankfully travel insurance can be really affordable. 

The Jordan pass

If visiting a few of the top attractions in Jordan, consider the Jordan Pass. It gives you access to more than forty attractions including the Roman Theater, Jerash, and the Citadel mentioned in this post on things to do in Amman.
