Lamadia ，

This was extremely helpful in trip planning。 The trip to Jordan was great and a lot of that was due to all the great information in this book。

Linda ，

I hadn't realized that I knew a lot more about Jordan than I thought I did， based on the Bible and several films。 Since I've always loved history， I look forward to visiting this very historically significant part of the world。 I also discovered I knew nothing about the snorkeling opportunities。 In Jordan？ Who knew？ I only read the sections on the history， Aqaba， Petra， and Wadi Rum， but I also read parts of another book， Rough Guide to Jordan， so the two books will count as one， I think。 I hadn't realized that I knew a lot more about Jordan than I thought I did， based on the Bible and several films。 Since I've always loved history， I look forward to visiting this very historically significant part of the world。 I also discovered I knew nothing about the snorkeling opportunities。 In Jordan？ Who knew？ I only read the sections on the history， Aqaba， Petra， and Wadi Rum， but I also read parts of another book， Rough Guide to Jordan， so the two books will count as one， I think。 。。。more

Guida utilissima per iniziare a scoprire qualcosa del Paese ancor prima della partenza。 Da portare assolutamente con sé in viaggio。 A me ha fatto compagnia nei mesi durante i quali abitavo in Giordania， terra affascinante e， purtroppo， ricca di contraddizioni。 Mi ha accompagnata nei miei spostamenti tra Irbid e 'Amman， tra i castelli del deserto e le rovine romane di Jarash， lungo la Valle del Giordano alla scoperta di località sconosciute al turismo di massa fino al ponte di Allenby al confine Guida utilissima per iniziare a scoprire qualcosa del Paese ancor prima della partenza。 Da portare assolutamente con sé in viaggio。 A me ha fatto compagnia nei mesi durante i quali abitavo in Giordania， terra affascinante e， purtroppo， ricca di contraddizioni。 Mi ha accompagnata nei miei spostamenti tra Irbid e 'Amman， tra i castelli del deserto e le rovine romane di Jarash， lungo la Valle del Giordano alla scoperta di località sconosciute al turismo di massa fino al ponte di Allenby al confine con Israele。 Ricchissima d'informazioni！ 。。。more

I just got back from visiting Jordan。This book was a little helpful。 You'll have better luck with the internet， doing your own research， and ultimately talking with guides living in Jordan。 I just got back from visiting Jordan。This book was a little helpful。 You'll have better luck with the internet， doing your own research， and ultimately talking with guides living in Jordan。 。。。more

Inoffensive， surface-level overview of the country。 Useful in its way， but then again probably not。

Stephanie ，

Virtually the only decent guide out there on Jordan。 The info was accurate and detailed。

Theut ，

Un paese da sogno， assolutamente da vi-si-ta-re！！

Matthijs ，

This Lonely Planet gives in depth details and history for Jordan's famous and not so famous sights。 The texts share valuable insights。Since my trip to Jordan is still ahead， I can't comment on the accuracy of this edition。 This Lonely Planet gives in depth details and history for Jordan's famous and not so famous sights。 The texts share valuable insights。Since my trip to Jordan is still ahead， I can't comment on the accuracy of this edition。 。。。more

Jules ，

Could not always be trusted。 There were quite a few big glaring mistakes。 They need to bring out a new edition as Jordan has changed since this publication。。

Michael Urvan ，

You should finish reading this prior to going to Jordan for important information。 Once there it is a good reference guide of places to visit。

Lena ，

Get the newly released updated copy！ The prices here are way off。 Also， I feel like the authors barely got below the surface in presenting Amman。 Another complaint， several maps and explanations on how to get places are quite vague （e。g。， Iraq al-Amir）。 Onthe positive side， the introduction is solid and the vocabulary section in the back of the book provides a good starting point for those with little or no arabic language。

Jayne Cravens ，

I went to Jordan for my 40th birthday， in January 2006。 It was a PERFECT choice。 My husband and I used Lonely Planet Jordan to find a place to stay in both Amman and in the village next to Petra （the latter of which turned out to be BEYOND AWESOME and yet oh-so-cheap）。 We met a woman who had hired a guide for Petra， and we knew more about the area that she did， per Lonely Planet Jordan。 We even used the book to take traditional transport down to Petra from Amman -- a mini-bus with the locals。 Ou I went to Jordan for my 40th birthday， in January 2006。 It was a PERFECT choice。 My husband and I used Lonely Planet Jordan to find a place to stay in both Amman and in the village next to Petra （the latter of which turned out to be BEYOND AWESOME and yet oh-so-cheap）。 We met a woman who had hired a guide for Petra， and we knew more about the area that she did， per Lonely Planet Jordan。 We even used the book to take traditional transport down to Petra from Amman -- a mini-bus with the locals。 Our tiny cheap hotel in Amman had a driver who took us to Jerash and what not， but he wasn't really a guide -- LP filled that role， and filled it perfectly。 。。。more

This is a good guide book for cheap travel in Jordan。 Would like to get a hold of the newer version， but this is good。 Also has great maps for a country where maps are virtually unheard-of。
