full day Wadi Rum jeep tour
Jeep tour introduction
If your time to visit Wadi Rum is limited to a whole day, this jeep tour gives you the best introduction possible. During the day you visit some of the most famous sites in the protected area. We use a jeep to cover the distances between the sites. And at each site, there is time to explore, hike, scramble, climb and enjoy. At lunchtime, we serve you a Bedouin meal. Afterwards, we continue the tour. Before we return to Rum village, we, of course, enjoy the feast of changing colours by watching the sunset. All together this day is an active day full of variety in the stunningly beautiful Wadi Rum desert.

You can climb the dune and enjoy running down. Our next stop is Khazali canyon. Here you see ancient inscriptions and a waterhole. A short drive brings us to the first rock bridge of the day, Little bridge. We scramble up the bridge and enjoy the marvellous valley views. The last site we visit in the morning is the Lawrence house.
Lunchtime
We drive to a beautiful, quiet and shady place where we take a break. We prepare a Bedouin meal for you. After we finish our lunch, there is time to take a rest or walk around to explore the area on your own. The amount of time available for depends on the time of year that you visit. During winter time the days are short and temperatures moderate, so we will continue sooner.
