Know before you go

Desert days can be very hot and nights surprisingly cold; pack light clothes for the day and warm layers for the evening.
Bring swimwear for the Dead Sea and avoid shaving the same day; the salty water can sting, and do not splash water in your eyes.
Food and lodging are not included unless you choose the upgrade option; Wadi Rum camps range from basic Bedouin tents to luxury desert lodges.
Petra, Wadi Rum, and Dead Sea resorts charge separate entry fees; purchasing the Jordan Pass in advance can save money and time.
Carry some Jordanian dinars in cash for tips, snacks, and local purchases, as not all areas accept credit cards.
Optional activities such as jeep safaris, camel rides, and Dead Sea spa treatments are available at an extra cost.
Bring sunscreen, hats, and plenty of water; guests with mobility issues may find Petra challenging due to its terrain.
Free pick-up and drop-off is available from Amman hotels; extra charges apply for airport or other city transfers.
