Getting to Petra from Amman in Jordan

score:4

Accepted answer

Abdali, Tabarbour, 7th Circle and Al-wehda are all names of bus stations in Amman.

Abdali is located near the King Abdullah Mosque.

How to get there? I'd just take taxi. However, it's good idea to make sure of the price before you get in. Don't let them rip you off. Wikitravel suggests that directly from the airport it ought to be around 20 dinars, I remember that when I went, had no idea how much it should be and ended up overpaying (paid something like 50 dinars). Taxi within city is just a couple of dinars. There is really no valid reason not to use them.

BTW. instead of going just to Petra and back to Amman, you might consider staying for a night there and see Wadi Rum the other day. The problem is the bus again, but you can take taxi, which should be reasonably priced.
