Description

‘Rum the magnificent… vast, echoing and Godlike… a processional way greater than imagination… the crimson sunset burned on its stupendous cliffs and slanted ladders of hazy fire down its walled avenue…’

Those were the words used by Lawrence of Arabia to describe the timeless, silent and vast place of Wadi Rum. And not without reason. Wadi Rum is one of the most impressive places of Jordan, a place where you can dwell for days without meeting anybody besides maybe a Bedouin family sitting in its goat’s wool tent in the rose-red desert sand. And sometimes the odd family of camels. Apart from that you are surrounded by sky-high cliffs of rose-red sandstone rock.

Itinerary

Until you have seen Wadi Rum, you cannot understand just how beautiful the desert can be. We will pick you up from your hotel. Departure at 7.00 for the more than 3 hour drive to Wadi Rum. On arrival at Wadi Rum village, we will pick up our picnic lunches and meet up with our Bedouin guides and drivers who will take us via jeep to Wadi Rum’s outstanding localities. In this magnificent environment with its sheer-sided towering mountains, local Bedouin guides and drivers will demonstrate to you their hospitality and knowledge of their home and ensure your appreciation of them. You will have a chance to have a ride on a camel. The Bedouin guides will take you by jeep to view Al Khazali gorge, the Umm Furth rock bridge, the rock-carved inscriptions at Anfisheyeh and at al Ameleh. In fact, Wadi Rum is an open-air museum with many thousands of rock-carved inscriptions. We request that the remains of your picnic lunch are retained in your vehicle and not disposed of in the pristine environment of Wadi Rum. In the early evening, we make our way to a Bedouin tent for a traditional home-cooked meal, served fresh from the barbeque spit. Vegetarians’ needs will also be covered. Admiring the night sky and enjoying traditional Bedouin hospitality in Wadi Rum are experiences not to be missed. Late into the evening, we return by jeep to Wadi Rum village and take our vehicle back to your hotel.
