Jordan Visa

[obsessionr]

We are visiting Jordan on an MSC cruise. We would like to visit Petra preferably with a private tour company and know I will need a visa. My question is does MSC provide the visa if we go on their excursion? Can I get one with the ship even if go on a private tour, or do I have to apply ahead of time on my own for either situation?

No one can answer this question without knowing your citizenship.

In my experience at Aqabba, although the actual office is at the land crossing, the ship is done in bulk for those nationalities eligible for visa-on-arrival.

We will be on an Oceania cruise later this year visiting Aqaba.  We have booked a private excursion to Petra with Jordan Horizons Tours and they indicate that the Jordan entry visa is included in their price.  Our group includes Canadian and US citizens.

Thanks for the answers. We are from US and will look into Jordan Horizon Tours.
