As mentioned in one of the above posts - you can get visa on arrival. The rules say you need to have USD 1000, flight tickets and hotel bookings in place (atleast for the Indians).

And yes, the first place to see in Jordan would be Petra, followed by the Dead Sea. If you have more days, you can take time to go around Amman or visit Jerash.

Presumably a credit card will do? I'm certainly not going to travel with USD$1000 in cash.

The rules said USD 1000 in cash and the visa officials at the Amman airport had asked us to produce that amount in cash.

But the rules might be different for US/Europeans

it's definitely not the rule for "western" passport holders. I dont even think the immigration guy asked me one question.

That was my point. The rules different for Americans/Europeans. So, in that case, dont worry about the visa and enjoy the trip. :)

Planning to go to Jordan in March. I suppose that should be a good time.

Will take some tips from your report. Thanks :)
