Response from royaltankmuseum, Manager at Royal Tank Museum
Responded 23 Nov 2020
Dear Mr. Loay, Thank you for visiting the Royal Tank Museum and for your note. We deeply apologize for this. According to the Museum's Coronavirus policy, we cut down the opening hours from 6:00pm to 4:00pm. It seems that you visited the Museum before we get the chance to publish the new opening hours on our social media platforms and website. We apologize for this again. May you please provide us with your contact number at ( info@rtm.jo ) so our team can contact you and arrange a free visit for you. Thank you for your understanding. See you!

The Royal Tank Museum Review Cost? 2 JOD (if resident)/5 JOD (if tourist) per person. Children <12 yo free. How long to allow? I'd suggest 2-4 hours to visit Opening hours? 10 am-4 pm every day except closed Tuesdays Review Not sure what I was expecting to see. But I know I wasn't expecting it to be as incredible as it turned out to be. After all, how good can a museum that's just about tanks, really be?!! In the words of my 15 yo son, "Wow for 2 JOD, you could go to a lot more worse places in Jordan!!". The place is clean, well designed, spacious and filled with more tanks than you could point a stick at! It was opened in 2018 and is still being worked on. The displays have just enough information (in both Arabic and English) so that you don't get bored. It provides enough interesting facts so that you get the idea of their capabilities compared to each other e.g. Country of origin, weight, type of munition, number of people needed, horsepower, speed and range. King Abdullah II is a military man and a bit of a tank buff (even though he is a helicopter pilot). Some of the tanks were gifts from other countries (there's a board detailing the countries who donated). It's a very impressive place. It's better than the Automobile Museum IMHO (and I love cars). It is broken up into several large areas, some of which feature quite good dioramas. There are plenty of tanks from the USA, Soviet Union, the UK and Germany (amongst other nations I have forgotten). The tanks covered include World War I/II, the Arab-Israeli wars, modern Jordanian made tanks, peace keeping vehicles and even a diorama featuring the Ottoman army. It features not only tanks, but also some of the armour the soldiers used, a Cobra attack helicopter, anti-aircraft guns, troop carriers, an interactive section where you can roleplay being in a conflict as president of other nations, a life sized replica of Leonardo da Vinci's theoretical tank and also transport vehicles from the past to the current era. Unfortunately, the 100% made in Jordan shop has nothing for sale....just yet. :(. In terms of value for money, this should be on your list of things to do!…

This has to be one of the best military memorabilia museums in the world. where else would you find such an enormous collection of tanks. And these aren't just your ordinary tanks. We're talking about tanks from all over the world and all time periods.
