Overland Travel Across Borders: A Tale of Two Frontiers
Al-Omari Amman Riyadh Hajj Pilgrim Desert Highway
Desert highways stretching towards an endless horizon define the 1,006-kilometer border between the kingdoms of Jordan and Saudi Arabia. This frontier is a crucial corridor for millions of religious pilgrims and a primary channel for regional trade. Your journey across this expanse is one of long distances and modern, busy facilities.
Mudawara Aqaba Durra 24-Hour Fuel Supply Route
You have three main crossings to choose from. The Al-Omari crossing is the most common for travelers heading from Amman towards Riyadh and the central regions of Saudi Arabia. Further south, the Mudawara crossing serves traffic coming from Aqaba and Ma’an. The third, the Durra Crossing, is located right on the Gulf of Aqaba, connecting Jordan’s port city with the Saudi coastal region.
