Dress Code - Although Jordan is a liberal country, it is always recommended to dress conservatively. When visiting any religious site, shoulders must be covered, and shorts are not allowed. In the summer, the mid-day sun tends to be quite hot, so wearing protective clothing such as hats or head scarves is advisable. Sunglasses and a high-protection sunscreen are also very much recommended. Many Tours involve walking long distances and sometimes on uneven terrain, therefore, comfortable walking shoes are best.
Tipping- this is never required but always appreciated, especially by guides and drivers. A 10% to 15% service charge may be added to the bill in hotels and restaurants.
Credit Cards - Hotels, restaurants, and larger shops all accept credit cards including American Express, Visa, and MasterCard. Smaller shops and local Souks prefer cash payments in Jordanian Dinars.
