Practical Information
Jordan is more than just a jaunt into Petra. Head to the desert for rock climbing. Dive in the Red Sea. Spend days exploring the capital city of Amman.

Dine on the quintessential Middle Eastern food found through Jordan. Felafel and hummus can be found everywhere, but remember, if you find yourself there during Ramadan, food options can dwindle dramatically.
Travel Tips

Wadi Araba Border Crossing between Jordan and Israel

By wanderinggurl on May 15, 2010 in International Transportation
The easiest border crossing between Israel and Jordan is the Wadi Araba Crossing near Eilat and Aqaba. If you're taking the bus from Jerusaelm have it drop you off on the side of the road before you arrive in Eilat. You can walk from there. This will save you a taxi ride.
