Itinerary
Once you arrive there you can see a natural spring which is used by both the animals and Bedouins as a source of fresh water. This is a popular spot for camels to go to. Here, you can follow the pipe up the mountain to climb up to a few fig trees for a great view over the spring and the surrounding desert. Please note this is not an easy climb. Even though it seems easier going up, going down is much more difficult. Be aware you will be needing your hands and feet to hike and climb up the rocks. You can ask your guide for the best way up and down.
Short couple of minutes hike inside the canyon with old inscriptions on both sides. You can continue inside a little further, but it gets quite narrow and more difficult to hike and climb at places.
Drive through where "Lawrence of Arabia" was filmed on our way to the Sand Dune with 360 view. You can hike up this sand dune to the rocky outcrop. Then it's a short easy climb to get to the top. From there you get a 360 degree view of that part of the red desert. If you like, you can bring a board and slide down the sand dune or rent one from the tent nearby for 5 JOD. Opposite the sand dune is the place where they filmed “The Martian”.
Naturally formed rock bridge you can climb onto. It's a short climb, but will require hands and feet.
See the house where Lawrence of Arabia lived. You can also hike and climb up for a view here. It's relatively short with a moderate climb near the top.
Drive through where “Aladdin” was filmed on your way to Um Frouth Bridge. Middle-sized natural bridge which you can climb onto. It's a moderate climb and descent. Then finally continue onwards to a prime location for a sunset view over the White Desert. Best view is a moderate climb up. However, from the smaller rocks the view is also amazing.
About 30-minute hike, with a short moderate climb in the middle, through the canyon. One of the most stunning places in the desert. You will be dropped off at the beginning of the canyon and the jeep will wait for you at the end.
Drive through where “Star Wars IX – The rise of Skywalker” was filmed on your way to Mushroom Rock. See the geographical wonder that is the mushroom rock. If you want, you can listen to traditional Bedouin music while drinking tea next to the rock. (When available.)

Very nice accommodation, with breakfast included. The tour is a bit expensive, but still worth seeing and the dinner also very delicious.
Thanks to the hospitality of our guide, we experienced the beautiful nature, lovely landmarks and local culture as best as we could as tourists. For our one night that we stayed as our group of four, the price was good and worth the adventure we got to live through. Humorous and lovely, our guide made the tour even better. I would heartily recommend this.
This is no longer the hotel that it was , 5 stars which has increased to 3 stars maximum , Grade 6 but that was the last time, too many cuts in everything.
It was a fantastic experience, I would recommend them as the tour was swift, informative, lots of fun and worth every penny
5/5 experience we had a lovely tour guide who took us to nice spots where we could take nice photos. He offered us water regularly and got a very nice lunch included as part of the tour. Would recommend to do this when in wadi rum.
We had a 4 hour tour with Raad in the immersive Wadi Rum desert. We had nice time, saw the best places in the reserve area and also he got us to hidden gems of the desert. Raad was talkative, good in English and very good host. We could do some easy hikes in canyons and also ride a camel, which was a funny and relaxing experience. The tour is a good value for money, you can see the most of the desert, have som time at the sights, but more relaxing day if you book a full day program. After the tour we had a nice lunch with traditional food and bedouin tea. Thanks Raad!
Raed was really nice tour guide, I fully recommend him! He has a nice family! And nice car. Hes jokes are also good.
Thank you, dear, for taking the time to write about your experience with us, and it is important for us that you enjoy it. We look forward to seeing you in the coming days.
I must say that the 4 hour jeep tour and overnight at the Magic Bedouin Star Camp, it was the best experience during our trip to Jordan. Riad (hopefully I wrote it correctly), who is the owner of the mentioned camp, was very helpful and friendly guy. He organized for us the 4 hours jeep tour through main points of Wadi Rum desert. Nothing has happend in a hurry. At all attraction we had as much time as we wanted. Also lunch is included in price od the tour. After the trip, we spent the night at Magic Bedouin Star Camp which is well-kept and very clean. We additionally ordered the dinner (breakfast is included in price). I reccomend it to everybody, because it is chance to try tradicional food. After dinner, in the evening, we had a surprise. Riad organized bonfire. We were drinking tea, watching stars. The silence at the desert is fascinating. Everything was on the highest level. The camp should be called Magic Budouin Million Star Camp. Riad, once more, thank you for everything, especially for the tea gift which brings memories of that time. Muszę przyznać, że 4-godzinna wycieczka i nocleg w Magic Bedouin Star Camp to najlepsze doświadczenie podczas naszego wyjazdu do Jordanii. Riad (mam nadzieję, że poprawnie piszę jego imię), który jest właścicielem wspomnianego campu, był bardzo pomocny i przyjacielski. Zorganizował nam 4-godzinną wycieczkę po najważniejszych atrakcjach pustyni Wadi Rum. Nigdzie się nie spieszyliśmy. Na każdą atrakcję mieliśmy tyle czasu, ile chcieliśmy. W cenie wycieczki był też lunch. Po wycieczce, spędziliśmy noc w Magic Bedouin Star Camp, który jest dobrze utrzymany i bardzo czysty. Zamówiliśmy dodatkowo kolację (śniadanie jest wliczone w cenę). Polecam każdemu, gdyż jest to dobra okazja do spróbowania tradycyjnego jedzenia. Po kolacji mieliśmy niespodziankę. Riad zorganizował ognisko, na którym piliśmy herbatę i oglądaliśmy gwiazdy. Cisza na pustyni jest fascynująca. Wszystko było na najwyższym poziomie. Camp powinien się nazywać Magicznym Obozem Miliona Gwiazd.
Very fun desert jeep tour. And the camp with amazing views. The owner treats you very well and the food is great.
It is essential with Petra if you go to Jordan, it is an immense landscape, impressive, we do not sleep in the desert because at night it is very frigid in January, but it is over and in 1 hour you are there, hiring the museum is very easy, they look for you. If you are going to Jordan rent a car you drive smoothly and there are decent roads.
