Jordan Travel Guide 2026: Places to Visit and Jordanian Culture
The most suitable months for Jordan are March to May and September to November. In July and August, the desert and the Dead Sea shore pass 40 degrees Celsius, and from December to February Amman has cold, wet days. The currency is the Jordanian dinar. The capital stands at altitude, so nights stay cool even in summer.
Places to visit
- Petra: an ancient city carved into Nabataean cliffs, on the UNESCO list and known for the Treasury.
- Wadi Rum: a desert valley of sandstone cliffs and red sand, also UNESCO-listed.
- Dead Sea: a salt lake more than 400 metres below sea level.
- Jerash: an ancient city with a colonnaded street and theatres from the Roman period.
Planning tips
The walk at Petra is long, and entering early in the morning avoids the heat. For a night camp in Wadi Rum, bring warm clothing. A direct flight links Istanbul and Amman. Entry rules depend on your passport, so confirm them with an official source before you travel.
MBD Travel and trip notes
MBD Travel does not offer a package tour to Jordan right now, so the country is hotel-led. We list 6 hotels with 60 room types in Amman, and 5 of the hotels are five-star.
