Amman

About Amman

A country rich in unique experiences and ancient history, Jordan has a deeply rooted tradition of hospitality, so you’ll often hear locals exclaim ‘Welcome to Jordan!’. With its five UNESCO World Heritage Sites, there are plenty of attractions to tick off your bucket list. In Amman, the capital city, you’ll find the recently restored ancient Roman Theatre and the former ruins of Citadel Hill.

Most visitors will need a visa. And if you plan to visit the spectacular rock-cut city of Petra, it’s worth getting the Jordan Pass, which includes your visa and access to the main tourist sites. Don’t miss the candlelit Petra-by-Night tour for an unforgettable experience. And why not test the healing properties of the Dead Sea, where you can float on the water and take a mud bath in one of the spas.

Experience Bedouin culture in the desert landscape under the stars of the great wilderness by exploring the rocky scenery of Wadi Rum by camel or Jeep – see if you can spot the famous movie locations. If you’re looking for stunning scenery, fascinating history, delicious food and hospitable locals, Jordan offers the total package.
