 Hey there buddy by american_tourister
The Black Hawk carries us around from place to place and gives us very short travel times to deal with. I am very, very grateful that the Army allows us to travel by air. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Currently, all the visitors to Iraq should come by Bus or by taxi from Amman of Jordan... In the eastern part of Amman the Iraq Taxis Park is the best place to hire a taxi, also the bus station is located there....
Traveling by air is very limit now...
Other ways are available now... The road way from syria, by taxis.
Or the sea way from UAE and Bahreen
Getting around, the best thing I suggest you to do there is to hire a care with a driver. Rent a car is not that known there (not sure about that)... but still my advice to hire a care with the driver for cirten days... and you have to infomr the hotel you are living in (and may be than can help you to arrange that) some infomration about your driver.

The only safe way to travel around Iraq right now is in an Armored Vehicle. The only people really coming here are with the US Military and other Coalition Forces, or the UN and some NGO's. Either way, they provide Armored Vehicles for transportation. Another popular means of transport within the country is by helicopter. It's fast, safe, and regular (except when their are sand storms).

We used to use the orange(almost red) and white taxi,,it was very cheap then.
But we had to bargain the price with the driver before riding. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

you can try a collective taxi:amman-bagdad;
the border with iran is now open;
if you travel with an agency or tour-operator,they will take you in charge from amman to amman;
at the iraqi consulate in amman,you can get a tourist-visa to iraq,provided of course that you have never heard of israel in your life Theme: Other

At the moment it's more than difficult to travel through Iraq individually. I was on tour with my people in this old bus. Theme: Other

From Amman to Baghdad it normally takes some 12 hours! including entry formalities - but this is fust an 'about time'.
The streets are of a very good quality but the distance itself is the problem. From Baghdad to the border at Rutba it is more than 570 km + 352 to Amman: makes a distance of mor than 920 km!
Travelling in Iraq is much easier than to enter the country. The bus system is not in it's best shape but it still exists. Taxis are quite affordable and available where ever you go. Of course, the best is if you rent a car - may be from Amman. But I don't know whether it is easy or difficult to travel around in an own car?! Theme: Other

The hotel I was staying at sent a boy up the street with me and he flagged a car down and arranged my ride from Zahko to Dohuk. It seems these shared cars are common modes of transportation and it only cost me about $5 to go from Zahko into downtown Dohuk. There were a couple of checkpoints along the way (leaving Zahko and entering Dohuk) but they were very hassle-free. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
