Product Description

Product Description

The Rough Guide to Jordan is the essential guide to the Middle East's most enticing destination. Detailed accounts of the best attractions Jordan has to offer, along with the clearest Jordan maps and plans, lift the lid on this fascinatingly diverse country. With expert advice and background, explore the world wonder that is Petra, an ancient city carved from rose-red mountain cliffs, roam the sands of Wadi Rum in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia, and then relax on golden beaches at Aqaba, Jordan's beautiful Red Sea resort hideaway. You'll find detailed guidance on getting the best out of a visit to Amman, the buzzing Jordanian capital, as well as Crusader castles and stunningly well preserved Roman cities. Float your cares away on the Dead Sea, the lowest point on Earth, or take in spectacular views over the Dana biosphere reserve. At every point, the Rough Guide steers you in the right direction to find the best hotels in Jordan, recommended Jordan restaurants, cafes and shops across every price range, giving you clear, balanced reviews and honest, first-hand opinions. Explore all corners of Jordan with authoritative background on Jordan's culture and history, the clearest maps of any guide and practical language tips.

Make the most of your holiday with The Rough Guide to Jordan.

I was extremely surprised from the moment I got this guide. It is the best guide ever. Amazing how it's possible to stuff that amount of information in a single volume. Everything about every possible subject. Great organization of information, written in a great style, extremely funny and providing a great reading. I would be the happiest traveler if most of the guide books were like this. Unfortunately they aren't, but those are different stories.

rough guide 13 Aug 2010
Format:Paperback
An informative book, small enough to fit in my suitcase and ruck sack. A few pictures but plenty of information about all aspects of the country and what is good value and what isn't - very pleased.

Really well-written, clear, honest, comprehensive yet concise guide book to Jordan. I travelled in Wadi Rum, Petra and Amman in February 2012 and most pricing and timing details seem to still be correct, except for the Petra entrance fee (which the author has already since addressed - 50/55/60 JD for 1/2/3 days).
Thoroughly recommend this book.
