Tipping in Jordan

Customary: 10%. 10% service is usually on the bill; the staff rarely see it, so add a little.

At restaurants

What is customary: A share of the bill, at any size

Worked example

On a JOD20.000 bill, 10% is JOD2.000, so you would hand over JOD22.000.

Tour guides

On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about JOD5.000 per person.

On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.

Expected. At Petra the horse and cart men are separate from the guide, and both expect something.
