Full Day Jeep Tour in Wadi Rum (incl. Bedouin picnic lunch)
Description
In our 4x4 Jeep tour, you will visit the most famous sights of Wadi Rum together with one of our Bedouin guides. On every site, there is enough time to wander around, scramble on the rocks, ask questions to your guide about Bedouin life in the desert, and make beautiful photos. If you want you can start or finish your tour with a camel ride of 30, 60 or 120 minutes for an extra 15, 20 or 35 JD. After your tour, you will have the option to stay overnight in our family-run traditional Bedouin camp, where we will provide you with a big dinner and breakfast buffet. We also have private tents that can host up to 5 people per tent with shared bathrooms (hot water and western-style toilets). In our communal tent, guests can enjoy WIFI, unlimited freshly brewed Bedouin tea and coffee, a charging station for all their electronics, comfortable lounging facilities, a telescope, and jaw-dropping views.

Best experience ever, worth every penny, unbelievable scenery and activities, Omar is the best guide and kindest person for this tour
Beautiful landscapes, varied activities and as described and good timing, great sunset, drinks at very nice disposal, great guide, thank you Abdul for your welcome and accompaniment for this day, take good shoes for moments of small climbs. Jordan is a surprising, underestimated country with a very welcoming, smart and pleasant people.
We did the 8-hour tour with Omar and we couldn't be happier. He took us to all the points of interest, prepared us the (delicious) food, tea, watched the sunset... Then at night, at the campsite, he taught us traditional dancing, we played cards.... We had an amazing day. Thanks Omar!
Amazing experience in the desert with our funny, efficient and welcoming guide Omar! We had the chance to see all the most beautiful spots in the area, enjoy a delicious lunch in a remote area. All the staff at the camp was very nice, and organised a memorable new year celebration. Highly recommended.
Wadi Rum is amazing! The tour driver was very kind but he didn’t have a lot of info about the sites, which would be nice to have. I booked a stay in the campground with them, but beware! if you need to leave early in the morning there will be extra charges to take you to the visitor center/parking. The food at the desert and campground was ok, cheese and hummus were store bought in tetra brick boxes. Their campsite is comfortable but a little basic (no AC or heating), and reasonably clean. We didn’t need heating but we had extra blankets. Overall a good experience.
Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏 We would like to clarify that our guide has extensive experience in the area and is always happy to share information and answer questions based on our guests’ interests. We would also like to clarify that transportation from the camp to the village is free of charge. However, transportation to the Visitor Center costs 5 JOD due to the distance. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you again 🌟
We had two of our best days in Jordan here! We did so many unforgetable things with Omar, we laughed so many times, had tea at incredible places with beautiful sunsets, amazing climbing Sessions, very good food, dune surfing, fun evenings in the tent at the camp with the other guests and so much more. You can ask them anything, they are so kind and we will NEVER forget this trip! THANK YOU!
We had the best time at Wadi Rum. Omar was an amazing and funny guide, who showed us all the best places, cooked delicious food and did a crazy hike with us. Always felt safe and had the most amazing time because of Omar. Stayed for two nights, just beautiful and a must do experience if you are in Jordan. Can 100% recommend it :)
