General Information

The people of Jordan are renowned for their hospitality, often going out of their way to assist visitors, and making friends with local Jordanians is relatively easy. While Arabic is the country’s official language, English is widely used as most students learn it from young age. Western attire is becoming more popular, especially in the cities, although traditional garb such as the men’s red-and-white keffiyeh(head covering) and the women’s hijab (headscarf) are still prevalent. Outside of urban centres, it is best to avoid wearing revealing clothing. Pre-paid mobile phone SIM cards are cheap and easy to purchase, and top-up minutes can be bought at mobile phone stores throughout the country. Internet cafés are common, and pre-paid mobile USB sticks for internet service on laptops are widely available. The national currency is the Jordanian dinar, subdivided into 1000 fils and trading at 1.41:1$ as of September 2014. Credit cards may be used in major cities, but it is advisable to travel with cash, especially outside Amman. ATMs are widely available in major urban areas.
