Jordan is a very beautiful country. It feels safe, just regarding the circulation, the people there seems to not have their licence when you see how they are driving. Nevertheless the food and the hostels are nice. There are breathtaking landscapes and one of the seven wonders : Petra.
Posted: April 29, 2025Jordan is a safe place to stay even for girls, they pay attention to the tourist.however it is recommended to hide shoulders and wear more conservative clothes We had an accomodation in Aquaba and travelled to Amman by bus. All the attractions are on the way. It worth to fly to one city and fly back from the other one.
Posted: December 17, 2024Experienced: September, 2023I did a solo trip to Jordan last September. I rented a car and it was easy, the roads were in good condition, easy to get around. I spent 3 days in Amman and then picked up my rental car. I felt safe the entire time.

Posted: January 18, 2024Experienced: September, 2023My experience in Jordan was amazing! We started in Amman with a two nights stay. People are amazing and really lovely, friendly! At first I didnt know what to expect from Jordan but at the end of the day I realized how safe I actually felt. Afterwards we went to Wadi Rum. We bought a guided tour with a night stay in the desert and it was magical experience. The locals were so friendly and nice. Food was probably the best I ever ate in a foreign country. We then went to Wadi Musa to see Petra and the tour was just amazing. We saw a lot and it was worth every step! We walked from 7 am until 4 pm. The last location was the dead see and well... once you are there you just have to get inside and take a swim. It feels like flying and the water is just great. You have showers there (depends where you go) because after a while you can feel the itch because of the salt. Well thats it! The food was amazing, locals were amazing, prices were solid. The total money I spet for 6 days was maybe around 500€

I was born in Jordan, and I lived there, it is extremely unsafe, especially for women. Please be careful, and don't travel alone, find locals who can help you. Women are abused and killed there very often

Amman is generally very safe for female travelers especially in the more “diverse” areas where you can find expats and other tourists. The most I or my friends/visitors have experienced is getting catcalled in some (not all) parts of the city in crowded areas or very very late at night. I would recommend not walking outside alone at night as a rule regardless of where you are but if you have companions you will most likely be fine!
