Inspirational Night Sky View - Booked 14 Jan, picked up from Wadi Rum camp 8 pm, took us to meet the RumSky team an amazing experience. Incredible equipment opening our eyes to the stars and beyond. Our Star Tutor has incredible knowledge and shared his passion of the universe with us. Pointing out North Star and how to locate it, streaming a brand new star, gasses in the night sky, Saturn and an array of shiny stars not visible without enhancing our vision using the high qualtiy equipment. Value for money, with a nice group of equally interested star gazers. Thank you for a truly inspiring evening which exceeded our expectations. Look forward to seeing our group photo taken on the night and were returned to camp 10pm ish. Lu & Dave, UK

Star Gazing in Jordan - 14 Jan 2026
The stargazing gazing Adventure was literally out of this world.
The guide was absolutely fantastic and certainly knew what he was talking about.
Our whole group came away wanting to do it all again, can't recommend it more highly.

Interesting, easy to do, great fun - Brilliant experience. Our guide (astronomer) Fakhri was excellent - knowledgeable and entertaining. The telescopes were self positioning and powerful - so easy to see the objects.

We thought it was great value for money.

An informative and fascinating look at our night sky - An informative and fascinating look at our night sky
Myself and a friend visited on a weekday night in late-October. The event was all in the English language.
We paid on the night at the venue. Venue had male and female toilets. The fee also included pickup/drop-off to our Lodge.
A 15-minute informative introduction including a short video showing the vast size of the universe, in an air-conditioned room.
We were then split into two groups to go outdoors: one group looked through each of four telescopes in turn and one group heard about Polaris and celestial navigation, then the groups swapped over. Both members of staff used a laser pointer to point out features in the sky and were open to further questioning and clearly passionate about their profession.
I particularly enjoyed viewing Saturn & its rings through one of the telescopes and hearing about Polaris.

A highlight of my trip to Jordan - A brilliant night. The RumSky team are so professional and had so much to show us. All questions were answered thoroughly and I now have the knowledge to identify a number of constellations. Seeing Saturn was a highlight

It was nice but short and expensive. - It was nice but too short and too expensive. 25€ for watching a 5-minute video, and Orion, Uranus and Jupiter at the microscope... We could have done the same in our country. Sorry but it is not worth the money... The personnel was nice.

Dont bother - Absolute waste of time, save your money and spend it on something else. The staff were generally nice but it was a total tourist trap & everything felt very scripted. Far too much waiting around, the actual information was short and limited, and you could barely see anything through the telescopes
