Jordan Visitor Numbers Decrease by 4.3% in First Half of the Year
The tourism sector in Jordan experienced a decline during the first half of 2026, with the number of international visitors decreasing by 4.3% to reach 3.147 million visitors compared to 3.291 million in the same period of the previous year. The number of overnight tourists also fell by 6% to 2.546 million, while day-trippers totaled around 600,000. In terms of revenue, tourism income during the first five months of the year amounted to approximately $2.8 billion, reflecting a decline of 9.2% due to the repercussions of the war in Iran and regional developments. The ministry affirms its ongoing efforts to revitalize the sector through product development, infrastructure enhancement, improving the visitor experience, and expanding promotional campaigns to boost the sector’s contribution to the national economy and generate new employment opportunities.
