Rent a car
Compare prices across rental suppliers — in Jordan and in thousands of cities and airports worldwide, with the terms stated before you book rather than discovered at the counter.
Search rental cars
Type any city, airport or airport code — Amman, Dubai, LHR. Results are compared on Syartijo; you only leave when you pick a car. Results come from our booking partner Discover Cars and are quoted in US dollar (USD) — their system cannot price in Jordanian dinar, so expect a conversion at your card’s rate. You can change the currency from the menu at the top of the page. Syartijo earns a commission on bookings made through this search; it costs you nothing extra and does not change the price you are shown.
Popular pick-up points in Jordan
Each of these opens the live price list for that location.
Queen Alia Airport (AMM)
The widest choice of suppliers and the usual arrival point. Desks sit in the arrivals hall, with some operators running a shuttle to an off-airport lot.
Amman city
Downtown, Shmeisani, Abdali and the main hotels. Often cheaper than the airport desks if you are already in the city.
Aqaba
For the Red Sea and Wadi Rum. Confirm the mileage allowance covers the drive back north before you take the car.
Dead Sea
Resort pick-ups along the shore road. A small fleet, so book further ahead than you would in Amman.
Irbid
The north, and a sensible base for Umm Qais and Ajloun.
Madaba
Close to the airport and to Mount Nebo, with a handful of local operators.
Rental periods
Daily
Airport pickups, day trips and short visits. Usually the highest cost per day.
Weekly
Tourism and longer business travel, normally at a reduced daily rate.
Monthly
Useful while your own car is off the road, or as an alternative to buying outright.
Read these six terms before you sign
Rental disputes almost always trace back to a clause the renter never read. Check each of these:
- Security deposit. How much is held, how it is held (card hold or cash), and exactly when it is released.
- Mileage allowance. Many agreements cap daily kilometres and charge per extra kilometre. If you are planning a long trip, confirm the limit covers it.
- Insurance excess. “Fully insured” rarely means zero liability. Ask for the excess amount you would owe after an accident, and whether reducing it is an option.
- Fuel policy. Like-for-like is fairest. Pre-purchased fuel usually costs more than filling the tank yourself.
- Additional drivers. Anyone driving must be named on the agreement, or insurance may not respond to a claim.
- Cross-border and late return rules. Taking the car outside Jordan is often prohibited, and late returns can be billed as a full extra day.
At collection
- Photograph every panel, the wheels, the windscreen and the interior before leaving — with a timestamp.
- Check that existing damage is recorded on the condition report, and get it signed.
- Confirm the spare wheel, jack and warning triangle are present.
- Note the fuel level and odometer reading in your own photos.
Repeat the same photographs at return. A five-minute record is the simplest protection against a disputed damage charge.
Renting out your own vehicles
Rental providers listing on Syartijo set their own rates, deposit terms and mileage policies. Clear, honest terms generate fewer disputes and better repeat business than headline rates that hide costs. Contact us to join.
