Therefore, negative PCR tests and vaccination certificates are no longer required for entering Jordan. However you might need to fill out a declaration form upon your arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is Jordan safe to travel?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There&#8217;s no need to worry about your safety while travelling to Jordan as it is indeed a very safe country to visit and the crime rate there is fairly low. So other than making sure you keep a good eye on all your belongings, you will most probably not be in any serious danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">However, we recommend you to avoid Jordan borders with Syria and Iraq just to be extra safe! Also there are some peaceful protests going on in Jordan from time to time and we suggest you to stay away from them if you happened to pass by them by any chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"762\" src=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Jerash_01-1024x762.jpg\" alt=\"View of Jerash ancient city in Jordan\" class=\"wp-image-7786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Jerash_01-1024x762.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Jerash_01-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Jerash_01-1536x1144.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Jerash_01-2048x1525.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Ancient city of Jerash<br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to get around in Jordan?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Public transportation is available in Jordan but it is a bit limited and might not be a very convenient option for getting around with. There are buses between the main cities which you can take, but the schedule of buses and the time of their departure varies and usually depends on how long it takes for them to get full of passengers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">You can also use taxis for inside the cities and domestic flights are available as well between the main routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Another option which is the most efficient, would be renting a car and exploring everywhere by yourself. Car rental is a fairly easy process in Jordan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-medium-font-size has-very-light-gray-background-color\">If you need help for arranging your transportation or for requesting a local guide in Jordan, contact our <a href=\"mailto:support@1stquest.com\">support team<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"541\" src=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Toyota_bus_in_Jordan-1024x541.jpg\" alt=\"Bus in Jordan\" class=\"wp-image-7801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Toyota_bus_in_Jordan-1024x541.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Toyota_bus_in_Jordan-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Toyota_bus_in_Jordan-1536x812.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Toyota_bus_in_Jordan-2048x1083.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Toyota_bus_in_Jordan.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">Bus in Jordan<\/a><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What&#8217;s the dress code like in Jordan?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Jordan is a Muslim country and you might come across some people who are wearing a hijab, but as a tourist you don&#8217;t need to wear one and there is no specific dress code declared in Jordan. However, as it is a bit of a conservative place, we recommend you to dress modestly especially as a woman, and it is best to cover your chest, shoulders, arms, back, and your legs up to your knees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6665-1024x686.jpg\" alt=\"People walking in a busy street in Amman, Jordan\" class=\"wp-image-7808\" srcset=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6665-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6665-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6665-1536x1029.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6665.jpg 1916w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Amman, Jordan<br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Things to do while in Jordan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There are so many different activities you can do while in Jordan including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Appreciate the ancient cities and mesmerizing architecture:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Get back in time and learn about an ancient culture by visiting the world wonder of Petra, ancient city of Jaresh, Quseir Amra, Roman Amphitheater, and Karak Castle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7791\" srcset=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/e\/ed\/Oval_plaza_in_Jerash.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\">Oval Plaza, Jaresh<\/a><br><br><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Explore Jordan&#8217;s amazing nature<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Immerse yourself in the lowest point of earth (Dead sea), Watch sunset in Dana, and go for a hike in the breathtaking Wadi-Al-Mujib canyon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c51c6d80306b6f5d6d92e73ffbb57963-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7790\" srcset=\"https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c51c6d80306b6f5d6d92e73ffbb57963-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c51c6d80306b6f5d6d92e73ffbb57963-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c51c6d80306b6f5d6d92e73ffbb57963-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/1stquest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c51c6d80306b6f5d6d92e73ffbb57963-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/imaggeo.egu.eu\/view\/5223\/\">Wadi Al Mujib Canyon<\/a><br><br><br><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Immerse yourself in desert and stay in Bedouin camps<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">A must for any tourist visiting Jordan is exploring the Wadi Rum and spending a night under the beautiful stars.
