Addtional Information
King Hussein/ Allenby Bridge:
The Allenby/ King Hussein Bridge is the closest border crossing to both
Jerusalem and Amman, located approximately between the capital Amman and
Jerusalem. It crosses the Jordan River and connects Israel/ Palestinian
Territories with Jordan. Since it crosses into the Palestine Territories, and
Palestine is not an independent state, it is an unofficial border. The
Jordanian authorities do not grant entry visas to foreign passport holders at
this crossing, in contrast to border crossings with Israel. Tourists who wish
to travel to Jordan must be in possession of a visa from Jordan in
advance. Those who leave Jordan via the Allenby Bridge may return by
showing the exit visa.

Please note, the official operation times at the border represent when the border staff want to leave, not when the last travelers are admitted. The latest times you can arrive at the border is based on the schedule of shuttle bus running between the two terminals. We highly recommend arriving at the terminal at least one hour before closing time.
You will expect different fees when crossing the border, e.g., for transport between the border terminals (Standard Shuttle or VIP Service), taxes or visas. Please note that these fees are not included in the price for the transfer.
Please note that Israel requires you to pay an exit tax when you leave the country.
Border terminal exit tax per person: 196 NIS (approx. 52 US$).
At the Allenby/ King Hussein Bridge, you have to take a shuttle bus to cross the space between the border terminals.

The VIP Service is a provision run by the staff at the borders to enable faster crossing. The service includes “VIP” waiting rooms, assistance with immigration, security and luggage; plus a private van shuttle between the terminals. Usually, clients go to the front of any queues. The VIP service can save lots of frustration, speed up the crossing considerably (especially when the border is busy) and allow it to be done more comfortably. Crossing from Jerusalem to Jordan, using the VIP service means you normally get through the border in 1 hour (without, it can be up to 4 hours on a busy day). Please note, the VIP service doesn’t mean you get less checks, and you still may have to wait if the authorities want to ask you any questions. Please let us know if you would like to use the service, as this affects the timing of the onward transportation.
We, at Jerusalem from Amman, understand that plans can change, so you can change dates, cancel, or change your pickup point. Please note that cancellation fees will be charged subject to the cancellation policy as indicated on the tour page.

The Israeli authorities determine the right of entry into Israel/ Palestine territories since it controls the entry and exit at all borders. Americans, Canadians and citizens of most western countries do not need a visa to come to Israel. On entry, visitors are granted leave to enter for a period of up to 3 months. For more information and a list of countries that do not need a visa, click here.
If you are required to apply for a visa in advance you should apply for your visa in your country of origin or at any Israeli Embassy.
Israeli border officials have on occasions used an entry stamp for certain travelers that states Palestinian Authority or Judea and Samaria only. This restriction effectively limits travelers who receive these stamps. To avoid this kind of visa, make sure that you state you want to visit Israel and Jerusalem if asked.
