Embark on a multi-day adventure exploring Wadi Rum.
Feel like extending your stay in Wadi Rum and exploring lesser-visited, more secluded, and unique locations?
Let’s explore the southern part of the desert, near the border of Saudi Arabia, meeting the last Bedouins who perpetuate their ancestral way of life in the heart of the desert.
The ideal solution for those who have the leisure to explore Jordan in depth, spending several days in Wadi Rum. An opportunity to live a unique experience, far from civilization. This part of the desert, rarely visited due to its isolated nature, benefits from Khaled’s extensive knowledge, who has resided there for many years with his family. Here, silence reigns supreme, harmonized by the surrounding nature…
