Amman Travel Tips
Amman travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • Take a hostel richt in the middle of town and go up to the citadel at evening light. You will see the seven hills of Amman. Enjoy the city by taking the bus!  Boudewina H.
  • Amman has some interesting Mosques and Roman ruins (the amphitheatre is amazing). But in a small country like Jordan it makes a great base. Sites like Madaba, Jerash the Dead Sea are all day tripable from Amman.  Russell S.
  • the mosque, a trip to the dead sea (45 min drive) a trip to the ruines in Jerash, a trip to Madaba- the mosaic in St. geroges church is amazing  Simone T.
