Well well well it’s been almost a year and I haven’t had time yet to post about it. My first solo trip ever. Luckily found someone to trip with, a big big thanks to this app : Travel Ladies. My travel buddy was amaaazziiinggg !! Bonus point : she can speak arabic so we go lots of avantages because of that. I honestly don’t know what would I do without her 😂 Jordan was amaaziiingg, people are so nice, friendly and helpful. Although you still want to be careful not to be scammed easily, there’s...

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.

Jordan 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.

I 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.

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...

I rented a car at the airport and drove all over Jordan for 10 days. I never felt in danger, the people were helpful and friendly. I loved Petra, spent a night in the desert, visited the ruins in Jerash, and saw amazing mosaics in Madaba.

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.

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!

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

It's generally very safe and welcoming. People here speak Arabic, but they're happy to try their English out. Very friendly and hospitable Good food and there are tourist programs and organized tours The only thing you might experience as a woman is probably catcalling, although it's significantly better nowadays.

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
