FAQ:
What are the most popular excursions in Jordan?
The most popular excursions in Jordan include visits to Petra, the ancient city carved into rose-red cliffs; Wadi Rum, a stunning desert landscape; the Dead Sea, known for its therapeutic waters; and Jerash, one of the best-preserved Roman cities. Each of these destinations offers a unique glimpse into Jordan's rich history and natural beauty.
How long does a typical excursion to Petra take?
A typical excursion to Petra can take a full day. Most tours start early in the morning and include a guided walk through the Siq, the narrow gorge leading to the Treasury, and visits to other key sites such as the Monastery and the Royal Tombs. Some tours also offer the option to stay overnight in nearby Wadi Musa for a more relaxed experience.
Is it safe to travel to Jordan for excursions?
Yes, Jordan is considered one of the safest countries in the Middle East for tourists. The government places a high priority on the safety and security of visitors. However, as with any travel, it's important to stay informed about current events and follow any travel advisories.
What should I wear on an excursion in Jordan?
When going on an excursion in Jordan, it's best to wear comfortable, lightweight clothing that covers your shoulders and knees, as a sign of respect for the local culture. Sturdy walking shoes are essential, especially for sites like Petra and Wadi Rum. Don't forget a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun.

What is the best time of year to visit Jordan for excursions?
The best time to visit Jordan for excursions is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is mild and pleasant. During these seasons, you can enjoy outdoor activities without the extreme heat of summer or the cold of winter.
Are there any special considerations for visiting the Dead Sea?
When visiting the Dead Sea, it's important to avoid getting the salty water in your eyes or mouth, as it can be very irritating. Also, do not shave or wax before your visit, as the high salt content can cause stinging on freshly shaved skin. Bring water shoes to protect your feet from the rocky shore.
What kind of wildlife can I expect to see on a Wadi Rum excursion?
In Wadi Rum, you can expect to see a variety of wildlife, including desert foxes, Arabian oryx, and various species of birds and reptiles. The desert's unique ecosystem supports a surprising amount of life, and guided tours often include opportunities to learn about the flora and fauna of the region.
How can I prepare for an excursion to Jerash?
To prepare for an excursion to Jerash, make sure to wear comfortable walking shoes, as the site is extensive and involves a lot of walking. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and plenty of water, especially during the warmer months. A guidebook or a guided tour can enhance your experience by providing historical context and interesting facts about the ruins.
