Is Amman Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Amman

Amman is a safe and lovely city; there is nothing to be worried about. However, it is important to visit well-known places and use reputable apps, such as Careem or Uber, for transportation. Everything is safe, and the people in Amman are very nice and helpful.

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!

Amman is perfectly safe during the morning. At night it's safe as long as you stay in lively places or good neighborhoods. It's mostly safe but better to ask natives so you don't get scammed by taxis or shops

Once you’re familiar with amman and the way around its ethics and morality, you’ll be good to go. It’s a bit tricky to navigate but easy to pick up on. Overall safe, a couple of judgy people here n there but those are harmless.

As long as you’re staying in popular areas and avoiding poor neighborhoods at late hours, it’ll be okay The crime rate is low compared to all countries around the world, and sexual harassment is possible but also rarely as it depends where you go

Everywhere you can find a police in the streets. I have never experienced something bad in public actually thanks god. People are kind and helpful. But I don’t prefer for a lady solo travel to visit any place in Amman especially at night. Not all places are the same.

My 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€
