Jordan Tours in Enero
Cool desert days, ancient wonders without the crowds, and starlit Bedouin nights — January is Jordan at its most atmospheric.
Why Visit Jordan in Enero?
From perfect weather to cultural festivals, here's what makes January an incredible time to explore Jordan.
Petra Without the Heat
January's cool temperatures make the long walks through the Siq and up to the Monastery far more comfortable than summer visits.
Wadi Rum Stargazing
Crystal-clear winter skies over the desert offer some of the best stargazing conditions in the Middle East, with minimal light pollution.
Dead Sea Warmth
While Amman is cool, the Dead Sea remains mild at 20°C, perfect for floating and spa treatments at the lowest point on Earth.
Aqaba Diving Season
The Red Sea at Aqaba stays warm enough for diving year-round, and January brings excellent visibility and fewer divers at the reefs.
Fewer Crowds
January is low season in Jordan, meaning shorter queues at Petra, quieter desert camps, and more personalized attention from guides.

January Travel Tips
Essential tips for planning your Jordan trip this January.
Pack Warm Layers
January nights in Amman, Petra, and Wadi Rum drop to near freezing. Bring a heavy jacket, thermal layers, hat, and gloves for evenings and early morning excursions.
Waterproof Footwear
January brings occasional rain, and the Siq at Petra can have puddles and wet stone. Sturdy waterproof hiking shoes are essential for safe and comfortable exploration.
Respect Local Customs
Jordan is welcoming but conservative. Cover shoulders and knees at religious sites, ask permission before photographing locals, and dress modestly in towns and villages.
Jordan Pass Savings
Purchase a Jordan Pass online before arrival to save significantly — it includes your visa fee and entry to over 40 attractions including Petra and Jerash.
Road Conditions in Winter
Mountain roads around Amman and Dana can be icy or snowy in January. Rent a 4x4 if self-driving and check conditions before heading to higher elevations.
Stay Hydrated
The dry desert air dehydrates you quickly even in cool weather. Carry bottled water at all times, especially during long walks through Petra and Wadi Rum excursions.
