The cheapest way to travel around Jordan is via bus. You have three options to choose from. The local bus in Amman has an efficient network but the schedules are not posted and the local bus stations are chaotic. The minibus is the most popular public transportation but they only leave when the bus is full so it can be anywhere from five minutes to an hour’s wait. The tourist bus provides quick and reliable service and has a schedule. You can also rent a bike to explore around the city but bring a bike repair kit with you because spare parts are scarce. In Aqaba, you have green, air-conditioned taxis everywhere. They are not metered so the fees are negotiable. Some drivers can treat the road like a racetrack so hold on tight.

While in Amman, explore the historic ruins, stop and have amazing falafel and hummus, take a stroll down Rainbow Street, or visit Al-Balad for some eclectic shops. They are all closed on Friday so plan to go Saturday-Thursday. If you are in to touring ruins, check out Petra, an ancient Roman theatre and a citadel full of history.

A valid passport and a visa are required in order to enter the country. Jordan extends visas to U.S. citizens for a fee at most international ports of entry and at international land border crossings at the time of arrival.

Most of Jordan is desert and has very little rainfall.

Peak Season: Spring and fall are the most pleasant times to visit with clear, sunny days and moderate temperatures. Off Season: July and August are the hottest and driest months of the year, especially in Amman, the Jordan Valley, and in the desert areas. However, with temperatures reachingover 97F, it’s also a great time to find cheap flights to Jordan.The winter months from November to April can be very cold, particularly in Amman, with snow, rain and wind. But there is little rainfall in the desert regions and in Aqaba, which makes a pleasant wintertime resort.

There is only one route available for domestic Jordan flights, which is between Amman and Aqaba. Renting a car is probably the easiest way to travel – though make sure you fill up with gas before leaving the big towns as stations are few and far between. Anyone with a valid driving license for their own country – which they must have held for at least a year – is allowed to hire a car. Driving is on the right. All signs are in both Arabic and English. Brown signs mark spots of tourist interest. Buses are available for routes between the main tourist destinations. It is probably worth paying a bit more to travel in one of the air-conditioned buses, aimed at tourists.
