KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Aqaba
- Give yourself the freedom to explore this ancient Jordanian city the way you choose when you arrange a car hire in Aqaba. The ruins of Ayla, one of the first Islamic cities to be built outside the Arabian Peninsula, is a stone’s throw away from the centre of Aqaba. You can also visit the Aqaba Archaeological Museum for a further glimpse into the city’s fascinating past. A car hire also allows you to discover Aqaba’s surrounding areas. A day trip to the protected desert wilderness of Wadi Rum is an absolute must and the iconic lost city of Petra, one of the 7 new wonders of the world, is reachable in just under 2h by car.
- The King Hussein International Airport is roughly 10 miles away from Aqaba and has a range of top car hire companies to choose from. You can find the likes of Sixt, Europcar and more in the main terminal building and be behind the wheel of your Aqaba car hire in a matter of minutes. Exit the airport directly onto Airport Street, which will take you into the centre of Aqaba in as little as 15min.
- In general, traffic in Aqaba is heavy and a little unruly, yet drivers are laid back and friendly. The main roads in and around Aqaba are wide and well-maintained, and you will find signs in both Arabic and English. That being said, it is advisable to add a sat-nav to your car hire in Aqaba if you’re not familiar with driving in a foreign country. Be aware of the many speed bumps and roundabouts in the city, as well as children and animals walking into the road without warning. On more rural roads, watch out for potholes and sharp turns. Driving is on the right side of the road and police checks are common, so be sure to have the correct documents with you at all times.
- Although there is a lot of traffic throughout the day in Aqaba, it is recommended to avoid the roads during the rush hour period of around 07:30-08:00 and 16:00-17:00. Main roads like Pr. Hasan Street and Al-Quds Street are liable to congestion. The desert motorways are generally free of traffic and provide a pleasurable and scenic driving experience. Of course, the weather in Aqaba is hot, so you should always ensure you carry water in your Aqaba car hire.
