The staff here are absolutely brilliant. Generally, everyone in Jordan is incredibly kind. I’m going back to the UK today and I am absolutely gutted. The staff are so quick and efficient. The hotel is clean and gorgeous from the inside and outside. There are spa facilities open, both mix and segregated. I will definitely be returning.
The staff will help with any queries but I would strongly recommend the following:
1. Uber for all local travel
2. Rent a cheap car from Enterprise for all longer distance travel - always carry passport and driving license with longer distances as police randomly stop you but they’re really lovely.
3. Get a Jordan pass if you’re definitely doing Petra, otherwise it’s pretty much the same costs. Jordan pass is easier but there are a couple of things you may have to spend £2-£3 pounds on such as sacred Churches etc. I would personally always get a Jordan pass.
4. I did the Amman sites and malls, Mount Nebo and Madaba, Petra and Wadi Rum, Lots Cave and Dead Sea and Cave of the 7 sleepers. I was only here for 7 days and if I could, I would’ve done Jaresh and Aqaba.
5. WiFi everywhere is brilliant but get yourself an eSIM. I bought one for 19 euros from Holafly for Jordan and the signal is brilliant. This gave me 5 days of unlimited data. It is expensive in the long run but for me, I was more than happy for fork out for it.
I swear, it’s amazing. The people are amazing. Especially the Palestinian Jordanians. Absolutely beautiful.
