The entire journey, from the Roman ruins in Jerash to floating in the Dead Sea, was incredible. We also had an amazing jeep ride in Wadi Rum, and the landscapes were just breathtaking. The people were so warm and welcoming, and I highly recommend visiting Jordan for its rich history and unique beauty!"

"I’ve always dreamt of visiting Petra, and my trip to Jordan was everything I imagined and more. Walking through the Siq to see the Treasury for the first time was surreal. Besides Petra, I loved the Dead Sea, where the salty water made floating a fun and unique experience. The local food was delicious, and the hospitality was top-notch. I also explored Amman and visited historical sites like the Citadel and Roman Theater, which were truly fascinating."
— Rajesh Kumar
"My trip to Jordan was absolutely amazing! From the vibrant markets in Amman to the serenity of Wadi Rum, every moment was magical. The Nabataean tombs in Petra were awe-inspiring, and the Dead Sea was a relaxing experience that I’ll never forget. I also loved the local cuisine, especially mansaf. If you’re a fan of history and adventure, Jordan should be at the top of your list. It was a perfect mix of culture, nature, and adventure."

The best time to visit Jordan is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) months. Here’s why these periods are ideal:
1. Spring (March to May)
- Weather: Spring in Jordan brings mild and pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). It’s the perfect time to explore the ancient sites and natural wonders without the extreme heat.
- Landscape: This season offers a beautiful view of the country’s blooming wildflowers and lush greenery, especially in the highlands and around areas like Wadi Rum and Madaba.
- Why Visit: Spring is ideal for sightseeing, hiking, and outdoor activities like trekking in Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea, as well as enjoying the ancient ruins.
2. Autumn (September to November)
- Weather: The temperatures in autumn are also mild, ranging from 18°C to 28°C (64°F to 82°F), making it comfortable for exploring Jordan’s historic cities and desert landscapes.
- Why Visit: Autumn provides excellent weather for a more relaxed sightseeing experience, and it’s also harvest season, so you can enjoy fresh local produce and regional foods.
- Tourism: Like spring, autumn sees fewer tourists than in summer, meaning you can avoid long lines at popular sites such as Petra and the Dead Sea.
3. Winter (December to February)
- Weather: Winter in Jordan is cooler, with temperatures ranging from 5°C to 15°C (41°F to 59°F), especially in Amman and the desert areas. However, temperatures can drop significantly at night, and it may even snow in higher elevations like Amman and Ajloun.
- Why Visit: Winter is the off-season, so you’ll find fewer crowds and lower prices. This can be an ideal time for exploring Petra, Jerash, and Aqaba, though it’s better for those who prefer cooler weather or want to enjoy fewer tourists at the popular spots.
4. Summer (June to August)
- Weather: Summer in Jordan can be very hot, especially in the desert regions and in cities like Amman, where daytime temperatures can soar above 35°C (95°F).
- Why Visit: While summer isn’t the best time for sightseeing in the inland areas due to the heat, it’s a great time to visit the coastal city of Aqaba, where the temperatures are more bearable and you can enjoy beach activities, snorkeling, and diving in the Red Sea.
