Best Time to Visit Jordan

When to travel to Jordan: weather by season, the best months for Petra, the Dead Sea and the desert.

The best months to visit Jordan are spring, from March to May, and autumn, from September to November, when highland days are mild and desert nights are cool. Summer months are very hot at the Dead Sea and in Aqaba, while highlands can be warm and dry.

Winters bring rain and occasional snow to Amman and Petra but mild comfort in the south and west. Whichever season you choose, tourism in Jordan is a year-round proposition. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan can adapt routes to the season, and full package tours to Jordan are scheduled around the ideal weather window.
