Additional Information

After introducing ourselves to the village of Wadi Rum, you will board the 4x4 towards the desert where we will drive you to the most splendid and wild places in the region. Cross canyons in pink and ocher hues, walk in the sand, climb rocky mountains, slide down a sand slope on a sandboard, stop to enjoy a steaming cup of tea heated over embers in the company of your guide Hachem, a young Bedouin man native to the region. His delicacy and know-how will make your experience memorable.

At the end of your day, Hashem will take you to the bivouac where you will sit around a campfire to admire the sunset and then dine on a delicious meal prepared on site. You will fall asleep under the celestial vault, well installed on your mattress, sheltered from the cold.

In the morning, before returning to the village of Wadi Rum, you will enjoy a breakfast while admiring the sunrise…

Breathtaking 24 hours in Wadi Rum - This experience was incredible and breathtaking from start to finish. Hashem is an amazing and smart guide who lets you feel at home very quickly and easily in the Wadi Rum desert. He explained lots of things very well and cooked amazing food for us. This was without a doubt the highlight of our trip to Jordan. We got to see the sunset in the most amazing places and sleept under the start, which led to fantastic photos as well. I would definetely recommend this day tour in the jeep.

Best segment of my trip in Jordan! - I have recently arrived back from Jordan and wow… what an experience! The culture and food were just so unreal I’m still in shock. My husband and I came to visit his home country after our honey moon and on the third day of our trip we decided to book with Badawa Camp to visit the cross canyons and the desert. Their service was impeccable and as a non native I couldn’t have been made to feel more welcomed than this. They catered to my every need and were very informative of what we would be doing at which points in the day. This way I felt very comforted knowing which activities would be done and when. My husband and I ate the traditional bedouin meal which was so fresh and melts in the mouth.After we were so stuffed but we still decided to take pictures and they came out so Instagram worthy. The landscape was so beautiful and it almost looked like a green screen. The atmosphere felt so surreal. Our guide took our couple pictures for us and he did such an amazing job he was amazing!!! We also went on the jeep ride after we drank Bedouin tea which might I add was so authentic and soothing on the soul. The jeep ride was so exciting and would definitely reccomend to families for a good laugh. Everything about this camp was perfect and it was the HIGHLIGHT of my trip<3

The most memorable experience I had in Jordan - This excursion was the highlight of my trip, absolutely phenomenal. It exceeded mine and my friend’s expectations. We enjoyed climbing the mountain and sliding down the sand slope. When you’re out there everything feels so surreal, the soundlessness of the nature makes you feel at peace. You forget how many stars our solar system has till your out in the middle of the desert, with the bedouins drinking tea and stargazing. How blissful. We were made to feel comfortable and all our needs were met. The people there are extremely respectful especially our guide called Hashem who would go above and beyond to help us. The quality of the food was excellent, it was authentic and cooked to perfection. It was an unforgettable experience, one which I hope to relive again. I highly recommend this activity to anyone who is planning to come to Jordan.
