My First Day in AMMAN, JORDAN 🇯🇴 عَمَّان 

Hey everyone, if you could click the like button on this video it would be doing me a huge favour. Let's see if we can reach 1k. It helps me a lot. Cheers!

As a Jordanian I can say YES everything is really expensive here especially when you compare it with the salaries 😔😔

Can you believe that it was a Coldplay video that first introduced me to this beautiful city?!

You have the best English accent ever. I don't speak English but I understand your every single word without subtitle. Crystal clear pronunciation and perfect pace make it so understandable

Lovely video Jason, as always fresh, informative and eye catching :)

Congratulations for your 51 countries visit, I wish you travel each country around the world. Very excited to see your next country visit. 💕

Very nice and a thriving city. It was great to see how the people live. Thanks Jason

Off to a lovely start...thanks Jason...oh and food looks spectacular!

absolutely charming places you visited in Amman! I can't wait to go!

Jason, your videos are amazing and I look forward to watching all of them.

Great video! I loved seeing the city from the citadel. The architecture seemed unreal at sunset. Lovely people you’ve met.

Great place and great food and great company. I love your videos and the way you explain things.

I miss this place sooooo much. I lived there for two years and went to school there as well. I really hope to visit again sometime soon.

You've done so kuch already!! Loved the first video. Look forward to the next. Been 5 times to Jordan all over, loved it.

WOW, INCREDIBLE

Hello jason, happy to see that you're enjoying your time in Jordan

Amman is beautiful 💙 Thanks for showing us where you go 👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Fascinating video, Jason. Brings back a lot of memories - I was in Amman 50 years ago when it was a much smaller city, but still very historic and peaceful city and country.

great trip, thanks

What a wonderful place! Somewhere I've always wanted to go.

Excellent videos!! We enjoy travelling with you virtually. Thanks!! Best regards!

Thanks so much I've never known much about Jordan. But I have learnt a lot from your video

Looks like an awesome visit! Hoping to get to visit Jordan someday too.

That waa nice of the girl to enlighten and guide you around.😊

thank you dear Jason, for all the videos enjoyed, with love Always

Welcome bro I hope u had a good time

haha, enjoyed your short video. I actually worked in Jordan 77-81 and passed by there in September for 12 days to avoid expensive hotel quarantine in London as i live in Philippines last 26 years. I recognise many of these alleys and streets you walked down. In the square outside the amphitheater used to be the Philidelphia Hotel but it has been knocked down since my time there. It is unbelievable the changes as during my time there Amman was quite small with a population of 500k, Jordan 2,5m but now the country's population is 10.5m and the city over 4m. Only downtown, 1,2,3 circles and Rainbow Street are recognisabe these days to me.

Wonderful Video as Always Jason 👌. CONGRATULATIONS on your 51st Country🎆. I made it to Istanbul. It is truly Amazing. Feel so Grateful to be here ☘✌.

Welcome to my country, hope you had a great stay!

Welcome to jordan ❤🇯🇴 If you loved the downtown and the old city you can visits Al salt - has a very beautiful old city with great views and has a lot of good restaurants that serves traditional food Madaba- the city of mosaic ,nepo mountain and it think it has the baptism site that Christians usually go there Ajloun- the green city in jordan and it has ajloun castle on top of the city but its very cold in this time of the year

Lovely vlog❤️🇯🇴

i just love your videos jason!!!! you are smart and profound and i feel every thing trough your vidoes

It was nice to meet you Jason ,, waiting you to come again to explore more places ❤️❤️❤️

I love the video, it reminds me with mu old days in Jordan. I agree with you Jason, Jordan is expensive for local and foreigners

Thanks for taking us on a tour of Jordan, Jason. I look forward to watching the rest of the trip around the country!

Beautiful city

Enjoyed your vlog. I am touring Jordan in October- Amman, Jerash, Petra, Wadi Rum, Aquaba and Dead Sea. Can’t wait ! Sounds like I will need plenty of money as you say it’s expensive !

Jordan looks amazing especially the city of Salt! Have you looked it up? It's spectacular. Please visit and vlog about Sudan. That would be amazing!

Great place 😍👍

That is a beautiful place, was there on our way to Petra. I want to go back to explore more.

The candle lit path to Petra Treasury at night is a lifetime experience! That evening seemed surreal after I got back home, to my life in NY.

Simpaticna reportaža, posebno za nas koji se spremamo put Amana. Lepo urađeno i što je za pohvalu. Priča sporo i razgovetno pa se sve razume. Bravo.

i love it how you fired the 1st guide half way and then hired a new guide

Well come in Jordan

Good evening Jason! I have been watching your videos for years, starting with South East Asia, where I have traveled extensively in 2017, 2018 and 2019. You really captured the beauty of Amman in this video! When you showed the beauty through the windows inside that cafe on the hills, I had such a feeling of calm come over me, it was that beautiful. Kind of a combination of awe and that I can't wait to start traveling again. I have some questions for you, if I may: 1. I'm 68, I always travel solo like yourself, and so being so very careful of not getting covid I'm mostly staying home. The only parties I've attended have been local ones outside where everyone is required to be vaccinated (though it's not checked). I have had two Pfizer shots, and am going for my booster in the next 10 days. But I'm still very concerning about continuing my dream of traveling again throughout Asia and the Middle East after retiring. Do you do any research to investigate how bad covid is spreading in any place before you visit? 2. Part of experiencing and enjoying new cultures is through food so how are you able to be so brave to do so since everyone is unmasked when eating indoors? 3. If you can share, have you gotten covid while traveling? 4. How does it feel compared to before the pandemic, to have to wear a mask in most places? How about in places where it's so hot? 5. Lastly, you said compared to other countries in the region, Jordan is very expensive and you asked a question of your viewers what locals think of the prices? I was also curious if any responses said it was because you were being charged tourist prices or were traveling in tourist areas? Thanks so much for your insight! Bob

Jason, eres Grande

Superb portrayal of a wonderful city Amman, even better than world normac.Fabulous Job Jason!

welcome to Jordan

So spooky not many visitors. I have been on the Citadel 6 or 7 times. I keep seeing new antiquities each visit. It is worth slowly exploring. Great to hear the sounds of the Old Town again. Wages are really low. There is no Social safety net in Jordan. It barely recovered after the GFC and now 2 years of the pandemic the tourist workers have suffered. It is important for tourists to tip well, especially the tourist drivers. Thanx for sharing.

Great place! 👍

This guy is a genuine journalist. He needs his own tv show.

Hi Jason. I stayed at the Al Midan 2 years ago and your video brought back some happy memories. You have my fullest admiration for the way you have turned your passion for travel into a full-time career. I started travelling in the mid-90s by backpacking around India and I'm off to my 90th country later this week (Barbados). I would consider doing a vlog but I don't think anyone would understand my Black Country accent so I'll leave it to the master and I look forward to following your future travels. All the best.

The most beautiful Arab country, Jordan, respect is a very special tourist, safety is very nice, Jordan

Good work brother I love your videos

Time travel ... thanks Jason!

Actually, much of the area of that plaza in front of the amphitheater was once the location of the Philadelphia Hotel, which is where I stayed in June 1977 for a night before joining an archeological dig in Petra (and again in August for a couple of nights before flying to London). The front entrance to the hotel faced the amphitheater, where cars and taxis would deposit travelers. I stood transfixed, gazing at the amphitheater after my taxi ride, before turning reluctantly away to enter the hotel lobby. The hotel, by 1977, was a bit shabby after decades of use. I believe it was finally torn down in the mid-1980's. I had a wonderful summer in 1977: the Jordanians in Amman and Aqaba, and the Bedul in and around Petra were wonderful hosts. Back then, Petra was virtually untouched. All summer, we had just two tour groups of any size visit us on the dig site (15 or 20 persons each time). Days went by with no visitors, which was wonderful. No vendors, no ticky-tack curio shops, no tourist hotels in nearby Wadi Musa, no "park entrance" fees or requirements... just the ancient city, the Bedul, and the 20-odd persons on our dig. Several times, the Bedul invited us into their tents; they'd slaughter a goat, boil virtually all of it after cutting it into pieces, and serve it up on large round platters of flatbread with mounds of rice and sauce from the pot. We'd sit around the platter and talk and laugh and eat and watch the stars come out. Now, of course, it's a different scene. Glad I saw it back before it became a tourist hot spot.

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Jason . The middle east is a beautiful and mesmerizing part of the world . I am looking forward for this series . Again an excellent vlog and I thank you for that/this . Your camera lens loves you and with a blessed hand for editing . What an excellent job you too . You capture what is most needed to showcase the country that you are in . You make the audience feel like they are together with you in that moment . Not everyone can do that nor do they have that touch to do it . You know Jason the food in the middle east taste better than anywhere else . That hummus looks phenomenally delicious . Fatima is lost loool . The mansaf looks delicious . Eating with your hands is essential in the middle east and also in India . Poor people did not have utensils so there hands was the utensils to eat with . Shukran Ya Jason . Please take care and be safe. May Allah continue to bless you and guide you and protect you and keep you safe .

Mind blowing video, your presentation is outstanding and your way of talking is so impressive. Lots of love from Assam ❤️❤️❤️, India

You welcome in my country i hope see you tomorrow if you have time old fellower , 💙💚💚

I'm in Amman right now visiting in-laws. I much prefer it in the summer but even in the winter it's not bad. The food is definitely good. I highly recommend Petra and Wadi Rum, though I've not been to either in the winter so I don't know how they'll be this time of year. Enjoy your travels though and stay safe.

Amazing and educational. Thanks again. John in Chicago

I was in Jordan in December 2019, i remember damn well every streets and was a pleasure to see them again in your videos! Ps. Everytime that Jason call all round bread "pizza" an Italian like me dead inside a little bit ahahah

In terms of the strongest currency in the world First ... Kuwait Second ... Bahrain Third ... Oman Fourth Jordan 🙂🙂

Hey Jason thanks for visiting our country.. Jordan offers much much more than the Citadel or Hashem restaurant or Petra.. there is just so much to take in.. as 7 civilizations passed its soil.. as for the economics unfortunately it's very bad at the moment and Jordan is very very expensive to us Jordanians as the salaries are very low... not mentioning the unemployment rate which almost hit 50% now... anyways happy u enjoyed ur stay here.. and hopefully you will discover more in future visits.

Hi dear, I watched all your series on Jordan and couldn't really understand which month did you visit? Would be nice if you highlight this in your speaking. The video was made uploaded around February. Then you mention its early winter, this will help me to plan my trip soon. Thanks a lot
