eSIM Travel Tips for Jordan
Install your eSIM before your flight to Amman
Royal Jordanian, British Airways, and easyJet fly to Amman from UK airports. Install your HelloRoam eSIM at home before departure. Enable data when you land at Queen Alia International Airport and you are connected immediately.
Currency in Jordan
Jordan uses the Jordanian dinar (JOD). The dinar is one of the world's highest-valued currencies. Current rates are roughly £1 to 0.90-0.95 JOD, so your pound buys slightly less than one dinar. Jordan is moderately expensive for British visitors. Keep your HelloRoam eSIM active for banking apps and ATM locations.
Petra and the Rose City
Petra site entrance area and Wadi Musa village have reasonable 4G coverage on Zain. Walking the Siq to the Treasury and main Petra trails has adequate signal in most areas. Remote Petra routes like the High Place of Sacrifice trail and Petra Back Door can have weaker signal.
Wadi Rum desert coverage
Wadi Rum visitor centre and the nearby village have some 4G signal. Deep desert camping areas and remote red sand dunes used for overnight camps are largely off-grid. Download your camp location details and emergency contacts before heading into the desert.
Jordan Pass for British visitors
The Jordan Pass combines a Jordanian visa waiver with entry to 40+ attractions including Petra. British citizens can purchase it online before travelling. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps you connected to access your Jordan Pass QR code and check site opening times.
Mobile networks in Jordan: what British travellers need to know
Jordan's three main mobile operators are Zain, Orange Jordan (now Umniah), and Umnia. HelloRoam connects on Zain, which offers 4G across Amman, Petra, Aqaba and the main highway routes. Zain covers all the major tourist sites on the main tourist trail from Amman to Petra.

Cat
On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer
Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
