  • If you are thinking of visiting Jordan then this video should give you some great ideas, tips and places to visit. We spent three weeks exploring the hustle and bustle of Amman, the ancient Greco-Roman city of Jerash, one of the 7 wonders of the world 'Petra', the incredible Martian landscape of Wadi Rum and experienced floating in the Dead Sea.

    I went last summer, that climb up the rocks in Wadi Rum is no joke! Great video :)

      Thank you! Yeah that climb is pretty sketchy eh. Health and safety doesn't apply in Jordan it seems!

    Great video! Watched a handful of videos about Jordan, but probably yours was the best as it is not "forced" if you understand what I mean! We are going in September, but I am still trying to find out when the sun hits the Treasury and the Monastery in Petra for nice pictures? 🤗

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Před rokem

      Thank you, appreciate that :)
      I'd say the sun hit the monastery fully around 11am. As for the treasury I'm not sure tbh. It's harder as its in a tighter space.

    Hi. Thanks for your vlog. But I still need advice from you guys. I am planning to do a group tour that includes Petra, Wadi Rum and Dead Sea but I’m on a tight budget so I’m considering to do it on my own instead so I can save. Like taking public buses that will go to those places. But will I be making a right decision or better yet, stick with the group tour? Thank you so much

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Před rokem

      If you can I would hire a car as there is not much in terms of public buses unfortunately. Failing that it's possible with taxis but obviously that'll bump the price. Might be worth joining the Jordan Facebook group as often I see people offering lift shares. Hope that helps some what?

  • @TROYCIANO
    @TROYCIANO Před 2 měsíci +1

    Excellent video! When the police pulled you over did he ask to see your drivers license?
    We planned to visit this October and we plan to rent a car. Is an international driver’s license required?

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thank you. I didn't have one when I went but I guess it's possible worth getting. Only costs £5 I think.
      The police just stop you cos they are bored I think. You should contact Louis for car rental. (details in the description I think) Really cheap and easy.
      Have a great trip!

      Hey, Thanks for watching. If you buy the Jordan Pass it covers the entry fees for most of the attractions in Jordan. Costs around $100 check out www.jordanpass.jo/Contents/Prices.aspx
      We did, one day in Petra, 2 days in Wadi Rum and half days in Little Petra, Dead sea and Jerash.
