  • Beware of Jordanian cab drivers who insist that you name the price ... invariably it will be MUCH higher than the real cost - determine the price before you set off, and know your distances and average prices! I also ran into several cab drivers in Amman who told me they came from Iraq, and these men were very aggressive and invasive about why I was a woman travelling alone, and assumed I desired their company. It was the only time I felt nervous in Jordan.
