Best choice to experience Jordan
Excellent trip. Jafar was our guide and did so with safety, knowledge and humour. Amazing experiences in both Petra and Wadi Rum, but we also got to see some extras. Highly recommended.

I did this tour with my mother and we both loved it! We have absolutely no complains! We felt the time was enough! Nothing rushed like others have said!

Petra and Wadi Rum Adventure
Great driver, showed us the historical details about Petra, on his lap top on the way there, so that was great info, he was polite and courteous, we had ample time to see Petra, and then to Wadi Rum, rode the jeep and explore the desert, with its incredible landscape! Great experience, Thank you!

Amazing day!
We had a wonderful day visiting these two Jordan gems. The day is long but worth it. Our driver Ramzi was great! He was polite, friendly and very accommodating to our needs. He was always offering us drinks and some snacks. Our driver for Wadi Rum was amazing as well! If you’re on a tight schedule like we were, I fully recommend this!

Q:What tours can you do of Wadi Rum?
A:The Wadi Rum Protected Area spans 285 square miles (738 square kilometers) with limited roads, so 4WD guided tours are popular. However, you can also explore by camel or hiking or try activities like sandboarding. A night in a desert camp adds magic to your experience in Wadi Rum if you have time: stargazing can be spectacular.
Q:What is the best time of year to visit Wadi Rum?
A:Spring (late March through May) and fall (September through early November) are the best times of year to visit Wadi Rum. Summer days are often scorching, while winter nights can be bone-chilling, particularly in a tent. April can be beautiful as desert herbs and wildflowers burst the arid landscape into life.
Q:How much time do you need in Wadi Rum?
A:You need a full day and a night. Full-day Wadi Rum Jeep tours hit most top attractions, with a camel ride, sandboarding, and some rock scrambling if you like. Most local guides highly recommend you stay overnight wilderness camping or in a tented camp to appreciate the night sky.
Q:Can you visit Wadi Rum without a guide?
A:Yes, you can visit Wadi Rum without a guide: many desert camps will collect you from Wadi Rum Village free of charge. To self-drive, you’ll need a 4WD, experience driving in the desert, a self-drive permit bought from the visitor center, and the owner’s permission to take the vehicle off-road.
Q:How much are tours in Wadi Rum?
A:The price of tours in the Wadi Rum depends on group size, tour duration, inclusions, and standards. As a rule of thumb, expect to pay $35 for a 2-hour shared 4WD tour and $110 for a shared 4WD tour and a night in a simple desert camp.
Q:Is there phone signal in Wadi Rum?
A:That depends. Wadi Rum is a big and empty place. There is signal in Wadi Rum Village, the visitor center, and nearby desert camps, but many desert camps have neither a phone signal nor Wi-Fi. If a digital detox is off your agenda, check with your camp before you book.
