Jordan - 10 days
I'm going with a friend (both 33 and male).
Pic related is the luxury hotel in Aqaba where we will be chilling.
Any tips, things you'd change, things to look out for? We have a Jordan pass of course.
I'd like to go diving in Aqaba but my ears are pretty fucked, probably couldn't take the pressure.

Day 1: arrive in Amman around midnight.
Day 2: visit Jerash & Jordan museum, anything else?
Day 3: drive along Dead Sea route, lunch somewhere along the way. Stops at Madaba, Mt. Nebo, Kerak? Arrive in Aqaba late in the evening.
Day 4 to 6: chill and light activities in/around Aqaba luxury hotel
Day 7: drive to and visit Wadi Rum, spend the night there
Day 8: drive to and visit Petra (evening)
Day 9: continue to visit Petra (morning), chill evening and go to bed early
Day 10: wake up early, drive to airport

No clue why it matters, but I probably should have specified we're both straight and will be sleeping in separate beds.

Because homosexuality is punishable by death in Jordan, it's best if you guys get separate rooms.

If you started blowing each other you wouldn't have to fill in so much time

I personally found traffic around the country to be stressful, especially in Aqaba. Though if you're in a resort away from the centre its probably nice. I crossed into Eilat which was far nicer in every aspect. Honestly outside of Wadi Rum (which we went past on bus) I went through tbat itinerary in around 3-4 days. People in Amman are nice but the Bedouin in Petra will be harassing you everywhere you go. Just be stern and you'll be fine. Amman has a good hostel and there's a restaurant iirc owned by the goverbment which does all sorts of local food

>Drive
Uhm, anon, I don't think that's a good idea, not beacause you would be kidnapped or something like that, but because some roads are inan awful state and Jordans drive like crazy.

That's fine, we're from Belgium and I've survived traffic in Naples.
Also the rental car is compeltely insured with zero deductible so even if we wreck it ten miles in I wouldn't really give a fuck other than the inconvenience of having to rent another car.

Are you kidding? There's no reason for taking separate rooms just because Jordan is islamic country. First, nobody cares. Second, Jordan isn't that islamic. Third, more islamic countries are, the gayer they get.
