Itinerary
Embark on a comprehensive day trip to Wadi Rum, commencing from Amman. Your designated driver will collect you from your accommodation in Amman and initiate the journey toward the destination. Our English-speaking chauffeur will guide you along the Desert Highway to Wadi Rum. Depending on road conditions, the travel duration will be no less than three hours, which includes a brief stop en route.
This unique tour leaves early in the morning from Amman via the desert highway. Here, we board our 4X4 safari, driven by a professional Bedouin driver ( Optional ), and ride to the visitor center in Wadi Rum. From here, it's onto Jordan's legendary sandstone area of Wadi Rum. The enchanting Wadi Rum is almost surreal in its distinctive beauty. Cross red sand dunes and explore the beautifully eroded pillars of sandstone rock. Among the natural attractions are what have become known as ‘The Seven Pillars'. It was this area of Wadi Rum that so inspired T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia). Wadi Rum's beauty remains intact, and its breathtaking scenery is still an inspiration for those who travel there. Visit the famous spring at ‘Khaza'ali' and the Hanging Arch. We also navigate along the infrequently traversed yet equally breathtaking trails adjacent to the Saudi Arabian border.
2-Hour 4x4 Safari Tour The ruins of a small temple near the village are a historical site from the ancient Nabataean civilization.

First impressions are everything. Bardaghawi, our driver, reached out the night before to confirm we had everything we needed. The morning of he texted to inform us he arrived to hotel. The 4 hour trip to Wadi Run was social. Bardaghawi treated us as family making us comfortable, being very attentive and very respectful. He was very knowledgeable about all the attractions and more. He taught us so much!! The long drive went by so fast because we had so much fun and learned so much. We reached our destination in Wadi Run and it was breath taking! This was an experience of a lifetime! I would highly recommend this tour and you will be lucky if you get Bardaghawi.

We had the most wonderful one day tour from Amman to Petra and Wadi Rum. It is possible, but expect it to last at least 13-14 hours. We knew that before leaving, and the was both smooth and enjoyable very much due to our very experienced and cosy driver Samer. Samer can tell you a lot about the different areas of Jordan, modern day living and society. Thank you Samer for a wonderful day. We can only recommend this tour!

Spent the day with our tour guide Anas visiting Wadi Rum, it was amazing. Anas set up a 3 hour jeep tour and lunch at a Bedouin home, all of which was truly fantastic. It was a long day, 4 hours there and back, but worth every minute. Glad we decided to go and glad we got the guide we did. Thank you Anas, we will share your information with everyone who coming to Jordan.

What made the experience memorable was the driver Ayman. He made the whole trip super comfortable, was very kind and really great at guiding us to make sure that we get the best once in Wadi Rum. He was also kind enough to guide us to some if the best locla hospitality though that was not his responsibility. .. as we found out, this trip includes only the driver to and from Amman, but everything else, you have to pay on your own, even get another fricer once there to take you to the locations with a 4 by 4. Ayman was great at guiding us whom to chose as a driver and where to buy some great local food. So if you are ever in Amman, I highly recommend you reaching g out to Ayman and requesting him. A great driver, hospitable, kind, which made this experience memorable despite our initial disappointment with trip advisor, which is misleading.
Thanks for your support......... and we are looking forward to serving you again
