What to expect

Day 1: Jeep & Farm tour
  1. Wadi Rum Village
    30m
    Wadi Rum Visitor's Center will be our starting point. When all travelers arrive and are ready, we will start our journey in the desert.
  2. Wadi Rum
    2h
    We start our journey in our beautiful farm near the camp that depicts the life of some bedouins in the area.. If you love animals, because we do, you'll meet our baby camels, sheep, goats and more. This is children's favourite site. We start campfire and have a nice cup of tea and if you want, you can help us feed the animals and plant some trees.
    NOTE: You can either visit the farm in the morning or enjoy sunset there or even skip it. Your choice.
  3. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    After the farm visit, we begin our jeep tour of the desert. Our first stop is an incredible panorama view where the movie "The Martian" was filmed. Wadi rum's sand made it perfect to replicate the red sands of Mars.
    You'll feel like you're on planet Mars!
  4. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    After some time in Mars, we'll go back in history and see a couple of Nabatean, Thamudic and Arabic inscriptions and petroglyphs that showcase the 12,000 years of human occupation of Wadi Rum. This is a great spot to take a camel-ride around the area
  5. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    Ok now, back to the present. We will stop at the huge red sand dune. The ascent of the dune can be a bit challenging as the thin sand falls underneath your feet. Once at the peak, enjoy a breathtaking view of the desert and then roll back down or sandboard the dune for more adrenaline.
    Please let us know if you would like to try sandboarding so that we take proper equipment.
  6. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    Next is Jebel (Mountain) Um Ishrin. One of the two mountains that make Wadi rum famous especially with the seven pillars of wisdom that make up the mountain.
  7. Lawrence's House
    30m
    Now again let's go back in time. Once a caravan hotspot erected by the Nabateans, the building then become famously known as Lawrence's House because legend has it that "Lawrence of Arabia" stayed here during the Arab Revolt. You can still see stacked stones on rocks made by the Nabateans.
  8. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    Um Fruth Rock Bridge is probably the most famous and most photographed spot within Wadi Rum desert. So, if you're up for the climb, give us your camera and we will take the best picture for you. #jordan
  9. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    15m
    Now it's time for another "insta"-sensation. The popular mushroom rock is closer than ever. Click, click, click ..
  10. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    1h
    Now we head to the Burrah Canyon, one of the largest canyons in Wadi Rum. It has an incredible landscape and is a very good spot to rest and cook our lunch on a fire. Yum-yum.
  11. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    15m
    After a tasty lunch, let's go to another interesting rock. This time the rock forms a giant face with erosion.
  12. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    Time for Lawrence canyon or as we call it Siq Um al Tawaqi. The canyon is picturesque with high red sandstone cliffs and white sand dunes and is famous for the face carvings of Lawrence of Arabia and Emir Abdallah Bin Hussein
  13. Wadi Rum Protected Area
    30m
    Now, it's time for the long-awaited moment of the day, it's sunset time. Wadi Rum is home to one of the most beautiful sunsets ever. It's also a good moment for a cup of bedouin tea around campfire or camel ride away from the crowd.
    Note: As stated before, you can also choose to see the sunset in the farm. It's particularly relaxing.
Day 2: Breakfast & Departure
  1. 1h · Admission ticket included
    Enjoy a beautiful sunrise at Noor Camp before breakfast is served.
  2. Wadi Rum Village
    15m
    It's the end of our beautiful journey. We will take you back to the starting and meeting point in Wadi Rum Visitor's Center.
