Feedback from drivers on Jordan's roads
These reviews come from drivers who collected vehicles in Amman, Aqaba, Petra, and Madaba between January and September 2026. Each review reflects a specific route or region within Jordan. We publish feedback as received, including constructive notes that help us improve the service.
Collected a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado from AMM Queen Alia International Airport on a Friday morning. Staff walked me through the rental agreement, pointed out existing scratches on the front bumper, and handed over the keys within 20 minutes. Drove south on the Desert Highway to Petra, then west to Wadi Musa. The SUV handled the steep inclines around the archaeological site without effort. Returned the vehicle in Amman three days later. Entire process was straightforward, no surprises at drop-off.
Hired a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport to drive from Amman to Aqaba along the Desert Highway, covering 330 km in about four hours. The part-time 4WD proved useful on a detour through Wadi Rum's sandy tracks. Fuel stations were frequent enough on the main route. I paid the booking advance online with a debit card, settled the balance in cash at the counter, and the rental company blocked a deposit on my credit card. Clear instructions in the voucher, no confusion about payment methods.
Picked up a Nissan Patrol in Madaba, drove west to the Dead Sea on the Dead Sea Highway, then north through Suwaymah and back via the Jordan Valley. The full-time AWD and high ground clearance were reassuring on narrow mountain sections. Staff at the desk explained the excess reduction option and noted two small dents on the tailgate in the agreement. Returned the car in Madaba after 60 km of coastal and hill driving. Smooth experience from start to finish.
Rented a Toyota Hilux double cab for a week-long trip starting in Aqaba. Drove north to Petra via Wadi Musa, continued to Amman on the Desert Highway, then west to Jerash and back south to Madaba. The pickup's part-time 4WD engaged easily on gravel stretches near Dana Biosphere Reserve. Fuel consumption stayed predictable at highway speeds. Collected the vehicle at the Aqaba office, dropped it at AMM airport. Both locations handled paperwork efficiently.
Booked a Hyundai Santa Fe in Amman and drove south to Wadi Mujib for a day hike, about 85 km each way. The AWD handled the winding approach to the canyon without drama. Only minor issue was the summer heat inside the car before AC kicks in-took a few minutes to cool down after parking under the sun. Otherwise, the vehicle was clean, well-maintained, and the staff provided clear directions to the trailhead. Would rent again with 4Drive Jordan.
Collected a Mitsubishi Montero from the Petra office for a four-day loop through southern Jordan. Drove east to Wadi Rum, spent two nights under the stars, then headed north on the Desert Highway back to Amman. The SUV's ground clearance and part-time 4WD were essential on sandy desert tracks 40 km east of the main highway. Rental company marked every scratch and dent on the agreement form before handover. No disputes at return, deposit unblocked within a week.
Hired a Toyota Fortuner in Amman for a weekend trip to Jerash and Irbid. The 50 km drive north to Jerash took less than an hour on well-paved roads. Explored the Roman ruins, then continued to Irbid for an overnight stay. The AWD system provided confidence on a rainy morning descent back to Amman. Paid the advance online, settled the rest with a debit card at collection. Staff explained the deposit block clearly and provided the rental company's contact details in the voucher.
Rented a Nissan X-Trail from the Aqaba office for a coastal and mountain itinerary. Drove north along the Dead Sea Highway to Suwaymah, about 180 km through arid hills and occasional green patches near the shore. The car's fuel efficiency was better than expected on the steady climbs. Collected the keys at the rental desk inside the Aqaba terminal, returned the vehicle three days later without any inspection hassle. Entire booking and payment process was transparent, exactly as described on the 4Drive website.
