Jordan is a Middle Eastern kingdom known for the ancient Nabataean city of Petra (UNESCO World Heritage Site and New Seven Wonders of the World), Dead Sea, Wadi Rum desert, and rich historical heritage. Amman, the capital, is a modern city built on seven hills with Roman ruins at its center. Jordan is one of the most stable and safe countries in the Middle East, welcoming tourists. Visitors are drawn to Petra's Treasury and ancient carved city, Dead Sea (lowest point on Earth at 430m below sea level), Wadi Rum desert landscapes (Lawrence of Arabia filming location), Jerash Roman ruins, Amman's citadel and Roman amphitheater, Aqaba Red Sea diving, Dana Biosphere Reserve hiking, Desert Castles, and Bedouin culture. Jordan offers ancient history, dramatic landscapes, and Middle Eastern hospitality with relatively easy travel logistics.

Visa Requirements for Jordan

Jordan offers visa on arrival for most nationalities at Queen Alia International Airport (Amman) and other entry points for JOD 40 (~$56 USD). However, the best option for tourists is the Jordan Pass, which costs JOD 70-80 depending on package, includes visa waiver (free visa if staying 3+ nights), Petra entry (worth JOD 50-55 alone), and 40+ other attractions. The Jordan Pass must be purchased online at jordanpass.jo before arrival. Without Jordan Pass, Petra entry alone costs JOD 50 (1 day) to JOD 55 (2 days), making the pass excellent value. Citizens of some countries can obtain free visas in advance through Jordanian embassies. Israeli-Jordanian border crossings have different visa rules. Jordan's visa system is straightforward, and the Jordan Pass streamlines entry while saving money for most tourists.
