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.
Posted: April 20, 2025As 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.
Posted: January 14, 2025Its very safe but like any other country there are a couple of areas to stay away from if you are alone, i love it , its very full of life and amazing people and the food is amazing , just make sure to check the price before buying anything and would recommend ubers instead of taxis
Posted: January 11, 2025Amman is considered a very safe city , of course some parts of the city are safer than others , but people are mostly nice here. Jordan is considered a safe country , people are very welcoming and generous. I recommend visiting it.

Hey, I’m Stephanie! I’m a musician and polyglot with a deep love for cultures and languages. Meeting people from around the world and learning about their traditions is something I truly enjoy. Though my busy schedule hasn’t allowed me to travel as much as I’d like, when I do, I prefer to experience a place like a local—discovering hidden gems, small restaurants, cozy pubs, and lesser-known attractions. I’ve traveled to Japan, South Korea, Russia, Egypt, and studied in the UK. My dream destinations right now are the Netherlands, Spain, Norway, Ireland, Thailand, and a return trip to South Korea!
