Jordan what you need to know. What to take with you to Jordan. Communications and Wi-Fi

Keep a separate folder for original documents and another for copies. There is no need to carry originals with you. In addition, if you lose documents, then let them be copies.

Bring your international passport, insurance, and international driving license if you plan to rent a car. Your driver's license will be valid in Jordan, but it must be obtained at least a year ago. In a notebook, write down the necessary telephone numbers and addresses: embassy, ​​insurance company, hotel where you will live, guide, etc.

A fashionable verdict, or visiting Muslims

When going to a Muslim country, immediately tune in, especially if you are a 100% fashionista and follow the latest fashion trends, towards modesty, conservatism in clothing and behavior style.

Firstly, you need to take clothes made from natural fabrics that will not cause your body to sweat excessively. Secondly, Jordan is a hot country, but its religiosity requires that local residents and visitors wear modest clothes that cover their limbs.

Jordanian women do not show their legs, arms and hair on the street, i.e. they are hidden under clothes. We do not encourage female tourists to wrap themselves in burqas, but frivolity in clothing is unacceptable here. Bring conservative clothing. In general, shorts, T-shirts, and minis are not welcome even on tourists. You won’t be allowed into a temple or a mosque wearing such clothes. On the beaches, the optimal swimsuit is a one-piece swimsuit, so women, Jordan is not a country where showing off your charms is possible. Men will also have to take clothing that does not expose their legs (meaning shorts).

In the evenings in Jordan it is often quite cool, so it would be a good idea to have a sweater, shawl or warm scarf in your suitcase. In winter, a windbreaker or even a coat will simply be a godsend: in the east of the country and in Amman you can feel all the delights of the colder weather for yourself.

Women should definitely take a scarf: it will hide their face from the sand and cover their heads during visits to mosques.

Thick flip-flops and swimming goggles will come in handy when swimming in the Dead Sea. A headdress would also be a good idea.

As for shoes, let's name the words that should characterize them: comfortable, worn-in, strong, sporty. However. Be sure to bring a patch, cases are different, even tested and worn-in shoes can present surprises.

Cosmetical tools

Take the minimum amount of cosmetics, since bright makeup can give you a bad reputation among Jordanians, and they may even mistake you for a priestess of love.

From cosmetics, take moisturizer. After swimming in the sea, where the salt concentration is off the charts, it will come in handy. The skin tightens and cracks, becoming covered with salt.

Take sunscreen cream. We advise adults to use at least SPF 20, and children to take SPF 50. Let us remind you once again (although it will not be superfluous) that travel insurance does not cover the treatment of sunburn.

If you are allergic, then take the shampoo and soap you use with you.

Antiseptic wipes will come in handy in a foreign country with unfamiliar germs. At first, we advise you to wipe objects that you and your child will touch with them until the body gets used to foreign “little enemies.”

Medicine for the road

Of course, a minimum set of first aid medications should always be with you. You cannot be sure that the drugs sold at your local pharmacies will suit you. Yes, they are not cheap, and they have different names. Convinced? We take self-tested medications for headaches, toothaches, disorders, digestive problems, motion sickness, high fevers, and allergic reactions. Find out in advance which drugs are prohibited for import into Jordan. When traveling with children, we also take a medicine kit for them.

Grocery set

There is no need to drag out food with you for the entire holiday in Jordan: local supermarkets have European-style food that we know and love. Bring only a snack for the road and food for your child if you are taking him with you.

Of course, water is very valuable in the country, but there are no shortages of it. We recommend drinking store-bought water so as not to ruin your vacation. The body's reaction to foreign water can be unpleasant. This also applies to food. Don't go overboard when tasting local dishes and you'll be fine. Jordanians add mint, all kinds of greens, herbs, and lemon to their food. Those who suffer from gastritis and peptic ulcers, be more careful in choosing dishes.

It is better to give children foods that are familiar to them. Potatoes, simple soups and juices are always available in cafes and restaurants in Jordan. In supermarkets you can buy dairy products and the same juices.

What is the situation with alcohol in Jordan?

Religious canons do not allow drinking alcoholic beverages, but alcohol is available in restaurants, cafes (not all), supermarkets and some stores. Of course, alcohol is not consumed on the street, in front of everyone, and it is not sold on holy holidays.

During Ramadan, the sale of alcoholic beverages is prohibited in Jordan. Unless in large hotels non-Muslim tourists are allowed to order alcohol. These days, smoking, eating and drinking water are prohibited in public places in the country until dark. Almost all shops, banks, institutions, having opened at 9 a.m., close at 2 p.m.

Be respectful of other people's cultures and traditions. You should not bring alcohol with you to Jordan. This is not a country where you can go off and do a “high-degree swim”.

The maximum for smokers is a block of cigarettes

The Jordanian authorities are strenuously fighting smoking in the country, so you will not see smokers in public places. Prices for tobacco products are sky-high. Those who smoke can count on one carton of cigarettes allowed for import.

How much and what kind of money to take to Jordan

The wallet of a tourist traveling to Jordan must contain both dollars and the national currency of Jordan - the Jordanian dinar. We told you how many dinars to take and where to change them on a separate page of our website. You will need dollars if you did not apply for a visa at the embassy, ​​but will apply for it upon arrival in the country. A foreign currency bank card that can be used in Jordan will not be superfluous.

A few more important things for the trip

Some hotels will not have a hairdryer or iron in the room. We recommend taking a hiking option with you. Of course, you can use the services of a hotel, but renting these items will be too expensive. Alternatively, wear clothes that won't wrinkle.

Don't worry about sockets in Jordan: they are similar to Russian ones.

Don't forget to take a camera, video camera or just a good phone with you. Chargers for them should also be in your suitcase. Photographer services in Jordan are also expensive.

And one more thing that will delight Jordanians and help you communicate with them. These are nesting dolls. Take them with you. A couple of gifts - and you will find yourself among family and friends in a foreign country. Gifts always work wonders on people.

Let nothing overshadow your holiday in this amazing country.

Breathtaking historical and biblical sites, stunning desert landscapes, the Dead Sea, the ancient city of Petra and incomparable oriental hospitality will make your holiday in Jordan unforgettable. However, before you go on any trip, you need to carefully prepare for it. the site has compiled a list of the most important items that will certainly come in handy on a trip to Jordan.

Sunscreens

For tourists whose skin is very sensitive to the southern sun, the question “Hthen take it with you to Jordan?usually involves a lot of sunscreen. But, according to experienced tourists, there is no need to worry here. The country has excellent comfortable weather all year round. Even in October, at the peak of the heat, there is no need to apply sunscreen with a protection level of 100SPF. Your standard product is quite sufficient. Plus, drink more water and stay in the shade.

And from home, take a couple of extra T-shirts and short-sleeved shirts with you. On the shores of the Dead Sea, healing mud is an excellent way to protect your skin from burning.

How to dress on a trip

When choosing a wardrobe for a trip to Jordan, there are two important factors to consider:

1. Jordan is a country with a hot climate.
2. Jordan is a Muslim country.

You should respect the conservative culture and choose the clothes you wear carefully. The rules here are not as strict as those in neighboring countries, but nevertheless, they must be followed. Appearing in public with bare shoulders or legs is unacceptable in most regions of the kingdom. On the other hand, you don’t need a hijab - the locals are fine with women with uncovered heads.

In nightclubs, you will find that local fashion is not much different from Western fashion. However, it is prohibited to appear on the street in the same outfits. Especially girls.

For evening events, pants and long sleeve shirts will be required.

White clothes are not the best option as they can become dirty and dusty in a matter of minutes. Please note that it is inappropriate to wear camouflage-colored clothing with bright prints.

What to take with you to Jordan for women

Although Jordanian cities are distinguished by modern morals, and the fair sex wears makeup, their image still remains modest and conservative. Ladies do not allow themselves to appear in public places without first hiding their legs, arms and hair from prying eyes. To conform to the norm, wear maxi skirts or pants. Even the slightest hint of exposed thighs or stomach can cause trouble, so avoid short shorts, tops, miniskirts or dresses. The exception is your hotel's poolside lounge area.

Please note that topless sunbathing is illegal. When going on excursions to religious sites, take care of clothing that covers your shoulders and legs. There is no special dress code in entertainment venues, but even here it is better to show respect for local traditions and views.

Representatives of the stronger sex can feel more relaxed here. Of course, appearing in public places in swimming trunks is indecent. However, they won’t execute you for wearing shorts and a T-shirt. Despite the relative freedom, it is advisable to leave revealing outfits for the beaches, and go out “in public” in trousers and a shirt.

What shoes to prepare

Petra and the Dead Sea are popular, but far from the only destinations attractive to tourists. For walking you will need comfortable shoes. Gladiator sandals and trekking shoes are a great choice for urban adventures. But in the desert you will need a really strong pair of boots. It's best to explore ancient Petra, where giant carved buildings seem to emerge from the mountains, or wander the many hills in light sports shoes. For dinner at a restaurant, closed-toe shoes or sandals are useful.

Important nuances

You can’t get by without cash in a taxi, at the market, or even in a museum. Immediately upon arrival, exchange an amount sufficient for at least the next couple of days. This can be done in city banks. Surprisingly, some establishments in Amman still do not accept credit cards.

Smartphones are needed not so much for communication as for finding useful information. If you get lost or want to find this or that object without a guide, technology will help out. There is no need to buy a Jordanian SIM card - there are plenty of places around that provide free Wi-Fi. For many tourists, the phone replaces the camera. If your camera is too big, then feel free to leave it at home - a compact gadget with a good camera will cope with the task with a bang.

Advice. Train yourself to always take photographs of tickets, receipts, checks and other documents, the loss of which may cause inconvenience.

The charm of Jordan is tempting: dive into the healing Dead Sea, explore the stunning coral reefs of the Red Sea, explore the world of historical monuments. Don't forget to feast on delicious Jordanian dishes and enjoy the colorful culture of the Middle East. Have an unforgettable experience!

Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(Official name)

Capital- Amman.

Population- 5.2 million people.

Territory- 89492 sq. km.

Language- Arabic, English is very common, there are people who speak Russian.

Religion- The vast majority are Sunni Muslims, there are also Christian Arabs.

The time is 2 hours behind Moscow; Daylight saving time is practiced, due to the discrepancy between the transition dates in Jordan and Russia, the “lag” can be 1 hour.

Electricity- 220 volts 50 hertz. An adapter is required for local electrical connections. You can ask for it at the “reception”.

Safety- many are afraid to travel around Jordan, and safety is the first thing that worries our compatriots. This is understandable, but worry is in vain! Jordan, despite the fact that it is an Arab country and borders Syria, Iraq, and Egypt, is a quiet and very peaceful country. It is safe to walk the streets here at any time of the day or night. However, women should not go out alone in the evening wearing short skirts, tight shorts, etc.

At Amman airport you will be met by our representative after receiving your luggage with a sign from the receiving party (to be indicated). He will help you go through all the formalities.

Visa, customs, sanitary and veterinary control - a tourist visa can be obtained at the consulate in Moscow (processing time - 1-2 days) or directly upon arrival at the arrival airport for free. The visa is issued for 1 month. The customs regime is generally liberal. The import of a number of high-demand goods (tobacco products, alcohol, etc.) is limited, including a duty on excess quantities. When exporting antiques and antiques, a special permit from the Department of Antiquities is required. The export of any type of coral is prohibited. The sanitary and epidemiological situation is generally favorable. Presentation of a vaccination certificate upon entry into the country is not required.

Weekend- Friday is an official day off and Saturday; Shops owned by Christians may also be closed on Sunday. The working day ends relatively early (compared, for example, to neighboring Egypt).

Climate- subtropical Mediterranean. Evenings in Jordan are cool, especially in the mountains and deserts, so a warm sweater can come in handy even in summer. The day is usually warm. The Dead Sea, Aqaba and the hot springs (Ma'in) are warmer than the rest of the country. But do not forget that the sensations with the same thermometer readings in Russia and Jordan are different - at 25 degrees in Amman it can be quite cool, and at a local 35 it is much more comfortable than at 25 in Moscow.

Jordan temperature:

Souvenirs- wicker rugs from Madaba, bottles with multi-colored sand from Petra (it’s better to buy in Petra itself - only there they use real sand in natural shades), olive wood crafts, ceramics and copper dishes, jewelry (cheap gold in Jordan, the price of the metal itself is fixed, but the price for the work can sometimes be “cut down” by almost half), Bedouin jewelry made of black silver and much more. You can purchase Jordanian-made cosmetics based on Dead Sea products. As for the famous healing mud, you can collect it yourself or ask one of the staff at the Dead Sea hotel to help you find it.

Currency- Jordanian dinar (1 dinar=1.42 US dollars). A dinar is equal to 1000 fils and 100 piastres. Banknotes in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 dinars and coins of ½ and ¼ dinar are used in circulation. Money can be exchanged at the airport, hotels and exchange offices. Payments for goods and services are usually made in dinars, but US dollars are also readily accepted.

Banks nationwide open from Sunday to Thursday inclusive from 08:30-15:00, and some reopen from 15:30 and remain open until 17:30. The offices of the vast majority of companies are open from 08:30 to 13:00 and 15:30 to 18:30. Government offices are open from 08:00 to 15:00. Shops are open from 09:30 to 13:30, then reopen at 15:30 and remain open until 18:00. Large stores (usually supermarkets) are open continuously from 08:00 to 20:00. During Ramadan, the holy holiday for Muslims, most shops close early.

Credit cards, and especially American Express, Visa, Master Club and Diners Club, are accepted for payment in all major stores, hotels and restaurants.

Transport. The easiest way to get around is by taxi. The white taxi is private and very cheap, but be prepared for the fact that the driver will only speak Arabic and will drop other passengers (very different!) into your car along the way. The yellow taxi is official, you can call it by phone listed in any local newspaper, or in a hotel parking lot, or just catch it on the street. It is also quite cheap and much safer. You can be sure that you will be the only passenger. It is better to agree on the price in advance, because the driver does not always use the meter. Taxi drivers are very friendly and know the city well. It is customary that a woman should sit in the back seat, and a man should sit in the front seat, next to the driver. Tipping is not required, but it is better to add 200-300 fils to the payment. Or you can rent a car. A driver's license valid in your country of residence and obtained at least one year ago is accepted. The traffic is on the right, just like ours. Signs on the roads are written in Arabic and English, but there are also special ones, brown in color, created for tourists. When driving a car, you must obey the speed limit. If you violate traffic rules, you must unquestioningly obey the police’s demands to stop. It is not recommended to enter into controversy with police representatives. The fine is usually issued on the spot. Trying to negotiate a reduction in the fine can have dire consequences.

Photo services- more expensive than in Moscow. Photographing people is only possible with their consent, and strategic sites (border points and airports) are prohibited.

Women's clothing, if possible, should not be provocative - do not forget that the majority of the local population are Muslim men and a too short skirt, open shoulders and back far from the beach can attract increased attention to you (do you need it?).

Nutrition in buffet-type hotels; dishes of European and national cuisine. Eating in cafes and restaurants is inexpensive and is not fraught with intestinal infections. It is not recommended to drink tap water or eat unwashed fruits.

Alcohol local and foreign production can be purchased at any time, except for the month of Muslim fasting; among local strong drinks, you can try “arak” - it is diluted with water, has the color of milk, as well as the specific smell and taste of anise. Local wines (white, rose and red) and beer are also quite good, which are not very expensive and of quite good quality. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer is offered in many cafes and restaurants (but not all), and is also sold in special stores. Drinks in restaurants where meals may be included in the price of your program (water, juice, beer, tea, coffee and wine) are served for a fee - about 1 dinar (well, this is the case everywhere...). Drinking alcoholic beverages on the street is prohibited.

Tips- are given in gratitude for good service to hotel staff (0.5 dinars), tour guide (2 dinars per person), driver (1.5 dinars per person), horse driver in Petra (2 dinars), etc., this practice - unlike Russia - is widespread abroad. Tips usually make up the bulk of the earnings of Jordanians working in the tourism sector - the employment contract usually specifies some insignificant amount and the addition “+ tip”, so ignoring this issue may simply offend the Jordanian.

A television- in some hotels (for example, Movenpick on the Red and Dead Seas) you can find Russian TV channels. Sometimes films with Russian subtitles are shown on Israeli television.

Telephone communications- The country's telephone code is 962. To call from Jordan to Russia you need to dial 007. In order to call from one city in Jordan to another, you need to dial 0 (analogous to eight) + city code (for example, Amman +6, Aqaba and Petra + 3). Phones that start with 079 and 077 are mobile. When calling them, the caller is charged as for a long-distance call. Some hotels may bill you for a mobile phone call as for an international call. Additionally, most hotels charge a minimum of 3 minutes of call time, which can be inconvenient if you need less time to talk or if, for example, the person you called has an answering machine. Ambulance - 199. Police - 191. Rescue service - 190.

cellular. There are two largest mobile operators in Jordan - FastLink (code-079) and MobilCom (code-077). The most common is FastLink. It has the largest number of sales points and the best coverage area. So we advise owners of mobile phones to purchase for 15 dinars a SIM card from this operator with 5 dinars in the account. A minute of conversation with Moscow will cost you 0.7 dinars, which is much cheaper than using roaming. And local calls cost about 0.1 dinar. Incoming calls are free.

Warning- while swimming in the Dead Sea, you need to protect your eyes: it is best to wear goggles for swimming in the pool; in extreme cases, sunglasses are suitable - they will protect your eyes from accidental splashes. You can remove any trapped salt with a corner of a towel (just blot it gently).

Optional excursions.

There are many interesting places in Jordan that are definitely worth seeing and without visiting which your vacation would be incomplete. Some excursions are more convenient to do from the Dead Sea, others from the Red Sea. Below are the most popular excursions. It is also possible to organize any others at your request. To order, you need to contact our representative and agree on the time of the excursion. Applications for excursions must be submitted no later than 1 day before the start.

Hello, dear tourists! In this section we would like to give you some tips on holidays in Jordan.

How and where to exchange money in Jordan

Upon arrival in Jordan, you should keep in mind that the country has its own currency: the Jordanian dinar and not everywhere you can pay in dollars. It is better to change money immediately at the airport upon arrival or in the city at any bank branch. If you pay in dollars in a hotel, shops or restaurants, the exchange rate will be slightly underestimated and not in your favor.

What clothes to take with you to Jordan

Jordan recently began to welcome tourists from all over the world. Tourism here developed quite a long time ago, but is not as widespread as, for example, in and. It is worth keeping in mind that this is a Muslim country with its own rich culture and traditions, so be careful when choosing clothes for your trip. If your vacation will take place on the coast of the Red or Dead Seas, then, in principle, the clothes can be anything from a swimsuit to an evening dress, but it is still better to visit hotel restaurants in closed clothes. Usually, both tourists and the local population relax in hotels, so it is better not to attract unnecessary attention with very revealing outfits.

If your vacation will take place in the city, you should choose more closed clothes. For men, this could be trousers and T-shirts or shirts. For women, a dress or skirt no higher than the knee, as well as sweaters, T-shirts and trousers. It is better to refrain from open T-shirts and short dresses, otherwise walking along the streets of the capital will not be easy.

When visiting excursions, it is better to choose comfortable shoes and be sure to wear a hat. Excursions such as visiting Petra can be long and tiring, so it is better to take a couple of bottles of water with you.

Food, restaurants and cuisine of Jordan

Jordanian cuisine is very rich in the choice of dishes. In Jordan restaurants you can find dishes for every taste, from European cuisine to Japanese. But still, if you want to get to know Jordanian cuisine better, do not deny yourself the pleasure of trying such dishes as: Hummus paste made from pureed pea beans with the addition of sesame seeds, garlic and lemon juice; Baba ganoush - spicy paste made from baked eggplant and tahina; Mansaf is a Jordanian national dish, it is a specially prepared lamb with rice and pine nuts with the addition of local yogurt sauce; Kebab - There are several types of kebabs in Jordan, don’t deny yourself the pleasure of trying them. For dessert you will be offered different types of sweets: baklava, konafa, mohallabiya or sahlab. All sweets are very tasty seasoned with honey and nuts. The portions of the dishes are quite large, so you shouldn’t order a lot at once.

Alcoholic drinks are served in most city restaurants. But it’s still worth checking with the restaurant in advance. Alcoholic drinks are also sold in supermarkets and some shops.

Accommodation in hotels in Jordan

Check-out time at hotels in Jordan: check-in after 14:00, check-out before 12:00. Be careful, if you do not have time to check out before 12:00, it is better to notify the hotel staff, as the card may be blocked and you will not get into the room.

When ordering additional hotel services or meals, you will be asked to sign a receipt for payment. When vacationing in a hotel in Jordan, you do not need to carry money with you, you can simply sign checks indicating the room number, which can be paid when checking out from the hotel, or simply leave a credit card as a guarantee of payment. Please keep in mind that when paying for dinner in a hotel restaurant or other service, additional tax of 13-17%.
