We had an unforgettable 2-day, 2-night stay in Wadi Rum with our incredible guide, Abdalsalam. If you’re wondering what to expect, here’s a glimpse of our experience! From the moment we arrived at Wadi Rum village, everything was seamless. We parked our car and, within minutes, Abdalsalam picked us up in his truck—outfitted with benches for a comfortable ride. That afternoon was magical: we explored sand dunes, enjoyed short hikes, and soaked in the vast, Mars-like landscapes. As the day ended, Abdalsalam drove us up a mountain for a breathtaking sunset and even prepared tea while we relaxed and took it all in. We then headed to camp. The accommodations are simple but practical—bathrooms and running water are available, but remember, you’re in the desert! Dinner was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and social. Some of us played cards around the fire, while others enjoyed quiet time under the stars. The next day was a full-day adventure. Abdalsalam guided us through stunning sites, prepared a picnic lunch, and kept the tea flowing. That evening, we settled into a cave camp for dinner and conversation before sleeping under the stars on thick mats with cozy blankets. It was surreal. The next morning, we were dropped back off at our car, said goodbye to Abdalsalam, and made our way to a well-deserved, much needed hot shower at our next location. Abdalsalam truly went above and beyond. He struck the perfect balance—friendly and talkative when we wanted, yet giving us space to enjoy the desert’s serenity. His hospitality made this trip unforgettable, and when we return, we’ll absolutely stay with him again. Best for: traveler's that have steady balance (walks in sand, easy climbs up rock formations), can get into a truck bed, don't mind being a little sandy and want to experience life to the fullest. Admission & Price : there is a small fee to enter the park and our total experience was a few hundred USD, we tipped generously on top of the base fee. BOOK HERE—you won’t regret it!

I had an amazing experience at the Wadi Rum Desert Home, I stayed with a friend in the cave under the strars. Abdu is very nice and will make you feel at home. He provides us everything we need to feel comfortable. This was truly an authentic experience that I recommend to have. The food was amazing, the exchange is simple and easy. Do not hesitate to book with Abdu, for fews days and night, the silence and simplicity of the experience will disconnect you fro meverything. You will not regret it! Shukran!
I picked the best guide and camp. I’m so lucky I found this one as it was extremely safe and I always felt comfortable even though I was alone. I learned a lot about the Bedouin life and I felt I was one of them and like a princess of the desert riding in the seats of the back of the truck. It is one of the best quality trucks with extremely clean and comfortable seating and safe but also fun (“hold on tight!”) driving through the sand dunes. No scams or non-sense! Completely trustworthy and reliable and so much fun. Don’t go with anyone else as this one is the best.
We had an amazing adventure thanks to Abdalsalam He doesn’t just show you Wadi Rum, he makes you feel what he loves about it. His passion for this place comes through in every moment, and that’s what makes the tour so special. With him, you don’t just see incredible landscapes, you also connect with the culture and spirit of the desert. Every stop, every story is shared with warmth and a genuine desire to make you part of it. A big thank you as well for those slightly higher moments… They truly made the experience even more memorable!
We had a wonderful tour with Abdalsalam. He showed us many interesting places in the desert and cooked us a delicious traditional meal in the evening. At night, we stargazed with him and had some really interesting conversations. Abdal speaks excellent English and is an openminded and relaxed person. If you're just as open-minded, you can learn a lot about his culture from him and have a great time.
We followed the instructions as we were told, and everything went well. We started the tour on time, and our driver Audi was very good. He was efficient and very respectful towards us. The tour was finished earlier than expected, so we had to pass time doing a fee other walks between canyons to kill time. This meant, we could arrive in a reasonable time foe the sunset. As Mt partner was unable to climb some of the experiences, we finished earlier, and this would be something to consider for future travellers. Of you don't plan on climbing, then you can afford to start a little later than 10am. Also, its a desert climate so the evening can get cold and really windy!! Do yourself a favour and take a jacket 👍🏽 All in all, this tour and tour provider were really good and I'd recommend them any day!! All the best.
A fantastic experience for our young family. We felt safe and well looked after and our guide took time to see what we wanted to experience. Their knowledge and passion for the Wadi Rum shone through.
We had an unforgettable two nights in the desert, one in the camp and one in the cave under the stars. Abdalsalam was a fantastic guide and made sure we had the best experience. Breakfasts and dinners prepared by Mohammed were delicious. Shukran!
We had the most magical experience camping in the cave for one night, after half day tour on a jeep. The desert in itself was stunning, mind blowing landscape. Regular breaks between spots where we could have some tea/rest. All the guides made us feel very welcomed as well. For us the highlight was cave camping - the kind of peace and quiet to sleep under a canopy of stars is incredible. We were well fed with delicious food and kept warm under blankets, and of course a fire too. Cave camping sounds full on but it’s actually a very relaxing experience, you really feel away from all the noise and buzz. Highly recommended!!
Abdal was super welcoming and immediately made us feel comfortable. He showed us around, giving us a tour of the highlights of Wadi Rum. We had some great talks and he was happy to answer all our questions.
Abdalsalam was an amazing guide, he drove us around wadi rum and showed us the most interesting parts and views. He provided us with everything we needed and we had very nice talks by the fire in the evening.
These people are so nice and friendly, i arranged everything via whatsapp with Abdalsalam and it went exactly as arranged, the price afterwards was like promissed on the web site.
Our Wadi Rum jeep tour with Abdu was nothing short of amazing! Abdu's chill, funny, and always available personality made the experience even better. The camp was cozy with a great atmosphere. Dinner was delicious, and the whole experience was great!
One of the best experiences we had in Jordan! Me and my friend stayed at this camp for 2 nights at first, but then we decided to extend for one more, since we enjoyed it so much. The camp was very neat and had everything we needed, the food was super good (the cook is so talented!). The staff in the camp was super friendly and helpful. Abdu, the owner, was also one of the kindest and friendliest people we met on our journey, he was always there when we needed something. He is super chill and funny, it was really enjoyable to be around him. We also went on a jeep tour, where they showed us many cool spots around the dessert, we drank some tea while watching the sunset and later observed the stars while spending the night outside. I would absolutely recommend staying here to everyone that wants to experience Wadi Rum in an authentic way.
We had a great time at Wadi Rum with a four-hour Jeep tour and overnight camp stay. The tour was well-planned, taking us to all the important spots without rushing. The camp had everything we needed, including a good spot for dinner and working Wi-Fi. What made the experience special was the warm and friendly atmosphere created by the hosts. We felt at home and well-taken care of, making our trip not only about seeing beautiful places but also about connecting with people. It was a memorable adventure we'd recommend!
Amazing experience. The guide was very knowledgable and showed us all the places you want to see. I would recommend taking the 4 hour tour, since there is so much to explore!
Nice tour with Salam Abdallah. I really liked .... both the tour and the dinner, the overnight stay .. I highly recommend it
Super recommended! We took the desert tour by jeep and slept in the camp one night. Everything organized with care and attention, the atmosphere is welcoming and familiar and the scenery is spectacular
Communication with the guide was very easy via WhatsApp. He was waiting for us at the parking lot and we were able to reach the camp directly. The day went well, the guide made us discover some INCREDIBLE spots! We had time on each spot to enjoy and take pictures. He always offered to take pictures of us when climbing certain structures. The trips were thrilling and we enjoyed it!! Our guide was very comfortable with his car 🤪 We ate with his family and had the opportunity to see how they live in the desert! However, a whole day with two people is a bit long, I think. I recommend the experience and this guide!!
An unforgettable excursion! Everyone is very nice and Abdu showed us some beautiful places. I couldn't have had a better time. Shoukran 🙏 🙏
Magnificent experience. The guide Abdou is really great! We had an incredible stay! Thank you for this unforgettable moment. We will come back !
It was a wonderful experience. Abdu treated us great and took us to exciting places. I will definitely return. Thanks for everything!!!
