We had an amazing time with Stars Valley Wadi Rum! The room was very cosy, the food was delicious and the tour was an unforgettable experience. The guide, Omar, is incredibly kind and very knowledgeable about the area.
We had a wonderful experience with Wadi Rum Stars Valley. When I initially enquired about a 3-hour Jeep Tour, Abdul was very helpful. We later changed our plan multiple times and Abuld and his staff catered all our requests for each change we made. They were also very responsive even after work hours and during the weekends. In the end we did a 4-hour jeep tour and stayed overnight in Wadi Rum Stars Valley's Bedouin Camp. We had a Bedouin style dinner next to a fireplace in a Bedouin tent and watched stars after the dinner. We had a wonderful time during our 4 hour jeep tour and overnight stay. Thank you to Abdul and the staff at Wadi Rum Stars Valley .
This is an experience that I absolutely recommend to everyone, we went with friends, Abdul picked us up in the parking lot took us home to eat and we got in the 4x4 Jeeps, in them we went all over the desert doing amazing activities, after that we went back to camp and we were given a typical meal cooked in the sand for dinner, listening to typical music and dancing and to finish the evening a campfire watching the stars. Abdul and his companions do their best to make you enjoy the experience and truth that they get, if you can strongly recommend doing it.
An unforgettable experience, one of the best trips of my life. Thank you to Abdu and his colleagues for being the way they are, for making us so comfortable. The best guides in the world, without them the experience would not have been the same. Amazing activities, great food and comfortable accommodation not a complaint at all. It's an experience that everyone should live sometime in life
We had such an incredible time in Wadi Rum! Our guide, Omar, made the whole experience fun, easy, and unforgettable. He’s super friendly, knows all the best spots, and made sure we had plenty of time for photos and exploring. One of the highlights was when Omar prepared delicious Bedouin tea for us in the desert — such a warm, authentic touch that made the day even more special. The jeep ride was exciting, the views were breathtaking, and Omar shared great stories and interesting facts about the desert. The sunset stop was absolutely magical — he knew the perfect place for it. Highly recommend them
Great experience Abdul was amazing took us to all the best spots on the Jeep tour and was super friendly. Reasonably priced and accommodation was comfortable and very nice
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re really happy to hear you had a great experience with Abdul and enjoyed the Jeep tour. We hope to see you again soon for another adventure!
Abdul is an outstanding guide in Wadi Rum – knowledgeable, kind, and passionate. He knows the desert like the back of his hand and shares its stories with heart. Every moment with him felt safe, fun, and deeply memorable. I would highly recommend him – and Wadi Rum – to anyone visiting Wadi . Ask for ABDUL
An all round amazing experience. Wadi Rum dessert is a beautiful must see. Our tour guide, Abdul, did a brilliant job - he brought the energy and lots of funny banter. We had great food under the stars and slept really comfortably. If you're coming to Jordan then you should do this tour.
I can't for the life of me remember his name but the Bedouin lad who drove us round for this tour was a top bloke, highly recommended.
Very fun, we stopped at many interesting places with amazing views. The driver Omar was funny and made the trip very interactive even allowing us to drive his 4x4! Definitely recommend this tour as it was the best part of our trip :)
Thank you for such a kind review. We are very glad that you enjoyed the tour of Wadi Rum!
