Highlights:
Summary
The safest place in the Middle East, with something for literally everyone Jordan is a wonderful country to visit and have a lovely holiday
Sitting between several hostile powers you'd think Jordan to be dangerous but for decades now it's managed to remain a safe haven for refugees and tourists with plenty of warmth and hospitality to go around
It boasts some of the most attractive photogenic sites in the world from Wadi Rum with it's heritage train experience to Petra, the great Nabataean city lost in time

Challenges
Getting between major cities can be a struggle and bus time tables dont always align. I'd recommend hiring a car, not a tour guide
Do
Apply for the Jordan Pass, it comes with entry to most attractions, historical sites and includes your visa for the country
Don't miss the north, plenty of quiet castles and forts from history to explore
Ensure you give Wadi Rum and Petra at least 2 full days each - It's easy to underestimate what you can do
Petra has a back entrance, start here at the 'Monastery' and you'll proceed to work down hill and finish at the famous treasury
