Hi

I've seen that Israel doesn't stamp the passports anymore, but, if I cross to Egypt by Taba, that is a border with Israel, so I will evidence "my visit" to Israel.

The question is: how can I cross from Jordan to Egypt overland and don't have a "dirty stamp"?

Thanks

Not technically overLAND, but you can take a ferry from Aqaba to Nuweiba. Occasionally there is news about a boat from Aqaba to Taba, but I am not sure if it has developed into a reliable, frequent and affordable service (in the past it was none of the three).

You can also fly from Amman to Cairo, Alexandria or Sharm el Sheikh.

A boat to Taba is the same to cross by Eliat, and I have to pay more U$60 to a travel agency.

I'll have not enough money to fly :D

But, from Aqaba to Nuweiba is a nice idea. Can I have the visa/stamp arriving by here?

You can't. :(
The only way is to bypass Israel by taking the ferry, as mentioned above.
