Great
The high-quality group experience made everything smooth, and the cultural and scenic experiences were also very special; it was probably the most profound part of this Jordan trip. Choosing this tour group was the right decision.

Tour Options
Itinerary
Lawrence's Spring
The spring is at the top of a short scramble – head for the fig tree, located just 2km (1.2 miles) south-west of the village of Rum. The spring was named in honour of Lawrence’s evocative description in the Seven Pillars of Wisdom: ‘’In front of us a path, pale with use, zigzagged up the cliff-plinth…From between [the] trees, in hidden crannies of the rock, issued strange cries; the echoes, turned into music, of the voices of the Arabs watering camels at the springs which flowed out three hundred feet above ground’’. Although the pool itself is largely unprepossessing, being a stagnant puddle, the views across the desert are truly spectacular
Among the vast expanses of rust-coloured sand in the Wadi Rum desert, the Red Sand Dune, or ‘Al Hasany’ in Arabic, is one of the most famous ones. Officially named Al Ramal it has become better known by its descriptive name. It stands out against a cliff side like it is part of the mountain. Coloured red by the presence of iron oxide, this dune is fine and soft underfoot making it perfect to walk up barefoot
Jebel Khazali
Khazali Canyon in Wadi Rum is the site of petroglyphs etched into the cave walls depicting humans and antelopes dating back to the Thamudic times. This narrow canyon contains numerous Nabataean rock carvings of people and animals. Jebel Khazali, a peak situated in the center of Wadi Rum Protected Area opens up in a narrow fissure of about 100 m length. Its inner walls are covered with Thamudic, Nabatean, and Islamic inscriptions, as well petroglyphs depicting humans and animals. Remarkable are the soles of feet petroglyphs, which probably had religious significance. In 1932 the French epigraphist Savignac noted the engravings in the cleft and published some of them in 1934. The petroglyphs and inscriptions of Khazali Siq form an impressive collection being one of the major tourist attractions in Wadi Rum. At the end of the canyon, there are several man-made rock-cut basins for water collection
Wadi Rum Protected Area
Little Rock Bridge: Easy to climb, this bridge offers great views across a broad expanse of desert. It is easily accessible and not dangerous, it is perfect for families with children and people who feel less comfortable with heights under their feet
Wild fig trees and desert bushes among huge rocks and red and yellow sand make this canyon unique. Abu Khashaba Canyon is one of the canyons that are worth to visit and you will need about an hour to walk through.
A lower rock bridge which is featured on many tours and can be easily scrambled onto. The climbing takes 5-15 minutes (depending on your experience) and the view that it offers to the surrounding area is amazing

Amazing!
We had an amazing 5-hour jeep tour in Wadi Rum with Mohammed, and it was truly unforgettable. Mohammed is an excellent guide — very friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the desert. He made us feel welcome from the first moment and shared so many interesting stories about Wadi Rum, Bedouin life, and the history of the area. The beauty of the desert is beyond words. The landscapes, the colors, the silence, and the vast open space are absolutely breathtaking. Every stop felt like a postcard, and Mohammed knew the best spots for photos and peaceful moments. My only regret is that I didn’t spend more time in Wadi Rum. Five hours was not enough to fully enjoy this magical place. If I ever come back to Jordan, I will definitely stay longer and choose Mohammed again as my guide. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Wadi Rum — it was a highlight of our trip.

Best Tour in Jordan!
Awesome tour that I was the highlight of our trip to Jordan! This tour went to so many sites and as we neared the end, we were virtually alone at each site. The guide Mohammed had so many interesting fun facts and answers to any questions that we had about the area whether geography or history and also shared his own personal insights on things making the tour so much better. If you are considering booking a tour in Wadi Rum, this is definitely the one you should book!
