Question 1

When is the best season to go on this adventure?

Accepted Answer

The best season to visit Jordan is between April to May and August to October

Question 2

How is the weather in this experience?

Accepted Answer

In midsummer, temperatures can raise above 40°C during the day. From
approximately April to October, it is therefore recommended to pack light and airy
clothes, and appropriate sun protection. But don’t forget to take a light jacket or
jumper as well, it can get quite cool and windy at night (easily below 20°C).
During the colder months (approx. November – March) there is rain, and in
January and February potentially even snow. Despite comfortable temperatures
on sunny days (15-20°C), it gets freezing cold outside, as well as inside houses
once the weather is bad.

Question 3

Do I need any specific medical records or vaccination?

Accepted Answer

Travelers with physical disabilities, and those requiring frequent or ongoing
medical attention should advise us of their health situation at the time of
booking (or if you did not do that then, please let us know now).
Carry along an adequate supply of any prescribed medications you may
require while traveling. Pharmacies in Jordan are generally well equipped
with standard medication, but better not risk it, right?! Prescription
medicines should always be carried in their original, labeled containers in
your hand luggage (not in checked baggage).
The following Vaccinations are recommended for travelers to Jordan:
Diphtheria
Tetanus
Hepatitis A & B
Mumps, Measles & Rubella
Polio
Typhoid
Yellow Fever (mandatory for all travelers who have recently been in infected
areas, such as Sub-Saharan Africa, and parts of South America)
If you travel to the region for the first time, we recommend to consult a
health care professional about individual requirements several months prior
to your trip!

Question 4

What happens if I get sick or injured during the trip and I can&#x27;t go on?

Accepted Answer

We suggest getting a complete travel insurance that covers medical situations

Question 5

Which currency do you recommend to bring?

Accepted Answer

The currency in Jordan is the Jordanian Dinar (JOD or JD). Changing money is
easy in Jordan, and most major currencies are accepted in cash and as traveler’s
cheques. US-Dollars are the most accepted, followed by GBP and Euros.
It is useful to have cash for small shops, and when moving outside the bigger
cities and tourism sites. Try to break larger notes (especially 50s and 20s) as
often as possible when paying in hotels, restaurants, or bigger supermarkets and
shops. In all other places in Jordan it is possible to survive almost entirely on
credit cards and ATMs. Visa is the most widely accepted card, followed by
MasterCard. Other cards, such as Cirrus and Plus, are also often accepted (e.g.
by ATMs of the Jordan National Bank and HSBC).

Accepted Answer

We recommend to purchase adequate medical, as well as a trip cancellation
and baggage insurance, and to carry the details of their coverage with you during
the tour.

Question 22

What clothes and/or gear should I take with me?

Accepted Answer

Jordan is a predominantly Islamic nation, and still tends to be quite conservative
in many regions. We recommend to dress accordingly. As a general guideline,
shoulders and knees should be covered – for women and men. Luckily is loose,
lightweight, long clothing in many regards a great choice: While being culturally
respectful, you also stay cool and protected from the sun.
In Petra, Wadi Rum, Aqaba’s Beach Resorts, and at the Dead Sea, people are
used to seeing tourists. A more relaxed dress code, and even beach wear is
therefore totally acceptable. Also during hiking shorts can be worn. We, however,
generally recommend lightweight hiking trousers to keep off the sun.
Jordan is a desert country. It can, however, get freezing cold during the winter
months. Make sure to bring sufficiently warm clothing, especially for the evenings
and nights, and be prepared for rain!

What’s the suggested baggage/backpack size?

Accepted Answer

We suggest traveling light with a baggage of no more than 15-20 kgs.

No, if you purchase the supplement: "Meet and Assist and Airport pick up.
Upon arrival, our airport representative will meet you in the immigration area, holding a sign with you name. After helping you to obtain your visa (Visa fee waived - Free) and to collect your luggage, he will advise you where to meet your driver for transfer to Amman.
