Description
En route to your camp you will have the chance to visit all the sites of interest within the Wadi, this includes Lawrence’s springs, Khazali Canyon and the Rock Bridge. There is plenty to see before the most dramatic views of Wadi Rum appear as the sun sinks below the horizon. Camping in this mountainous desert, under a blanket of stars, is an unforgettable experience. Your supper will be cooked on the campfire by your private chef/host, as you sit and take in the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Your sleep will be uninterrupted until the dawn breaks and you will be awoken by the songs of the desert scrub harbour or the Mourning Wheatear.
Inside the tents are provided a fixed bed and comfortable, yet simple bedding. The camp has its own dining tent with low-rise tables offering a sumptuous BBQ with salads, mezzeh and soft drinks. There is a portable toilet on site and a table for washing your hands.
You can venture into the desert landscape by camel, jeep or simply by foot. Wadi Rum is home to stunning mountains of sandstone and granite with narrow canyons and fissures which are particularly beautiful in the morning and at sunset.
The camp can either be taken privately, or shared with up to six other couples or families.

When to travel
For a small country, Jordan has an extraordinary range of climates. The best time to visit climate-wise is in spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the daytime temperatures aren't too extreme. April is probably the best month, when temperatures are warm and wildflowers are in bloom. March can be cold and rainy in the north but is balmy by the Gulf of Aqaba and the Dead Sea.
