Magic Bedouin Star - Campsite

Omar gave an incredible tour for us. He speaks fantastic English and is very engaging. Great energy and stories. We saw all the best spots and we would recommend travelling with Omar above everyone else. Thanks again can’t wait to come back!

Absolutely amazing experience, Omar and Rashid showed us awesome places all around Wadi Rum but they were not only our guides, but perfect companions who made our brief stay in the desert ten times more enjoyable. We felt so sad when leaving the desert behind us.

This is a must if you are visiting Jordan! My family and I highly regret that we stayed only one day and night. We experienced an incredible day with Omar and his 8-year-old son Wisam. Wisam climbed on all the mountains and rocks with us and in the evening, after dinner, he asked us to play Uno which he played by his own, special rules :) He was genuinely one of the best parts of the trip! Omar was, except for his son, our favourite person we met in Jordan. When you meet him, you instantly feel trust towards him. He is a very smart and well-balanced person. The place they have built is lovely! It is much more luxurious than we had expected in the middle of the desert. The part we loved the most was the big tent where we were served dinner and breakfast. They have a big fireplace in the middle of the tent, everyone sits around, smokes shisha and talks. That way you get to spend time with the local people (Omar, Wisam, the chef and their friends who visited) and the other guests. Beautiful atmosphere! And one more win: the chef (unfortunately I forgot his name) made us the most delicious food we had in all of Jordan (and all the food in Jordan was already amazing)! So, if it's not clear by now, I LOVED the day in Wadi Rum organised for us by Omar. I hope I will get to come back!

If you are visiting Wadi Rum you need to book with Wadi Rum Dessert Tours. The staff are amazing, the food was delicious, and the views from our almost panoramic room were breathtaking. The comfortable rooms are located in a spot where you have a beautiful view of the milky way over the desert mountains. The icing on the cake is that Omar and his team were amazing to get to know and shared a lot about Jordanian culture. Check out the photos I took below!

A Very Good Day/Night Raad and his brothers were very good hosts, attentive to all needs, and informative, over dinner and a campfire chat, about the Bedouin relation to Wadi Rum. The location of the camp is, of course, stunning, and the jeep tour well worth it.
