Aqaba Getting there & around

Getting around

Local transport

Taxi

Hundreds of private (yellow) taxis cruise the streets beeping at any tourist (Jordanian or foreign) silly enough to walk around in the heat rather than take an air-conditioned taxi. Taxis are unmetered so prices are entirely negotiable, and the drivers in Aqaba enjoy the sport. Most rides cost between 500 fils and JD1.
