The full day camel tour allows you to take in the beauty of Wadi Rum in traditional style. The camels are tethered together for an orderly trip, but if you're feeling adventurous you can take the reigns and put your riding skills to the test.
All transportation and accommodations included.
Your Bedouin tour guide will explain the story behind these natural and historical wonders in English. He will also prepare you a desert cooked lunch:
- Start your day at the Nabatean Temple. Built in the1st century AD and with Latin inscriptions showing 3rd century Roman occupation, marvel at this ancient ruin.
- Continue to the Lawrence Springs. This naturally spring-fed system provides drinking water for many of Wadi Rum’s friendly camels.
- Scale the giant Sand Dune to earn your best views of the desert plains yet. Watch the camel convoys from far above.
- Next, go to the Khazali Canyon inscriptions. Tucked inside a narrow canyon, these millennia-old carvings show the animals that once made their home in Wadi Rum (and some that are still around today). Your tour guide will explain more about the wildlife of Wadi Rum. On the other side of the canyon look for the Kufic writing that shows the evolution of the Arabic script.
Along the Way:
- On the back of a camel is the best way to soak in the ever-changing landscape. If you’d like to stop for a photograph or any other reason, this is your tour!
- Enjoy the shade of our friends’ tents and a cup (or two!) or fire-brewed tea.
- Our guides are experienced in the art of photography and are happy to help you capture your memories.
- Our guides grew up in Wadi Rum and are here to answer you questions about life in the desert.
Camp and Logistics:
This package includes transportation between Wadi Rum Village and Candles Camp as well as accommodations at the camp. Enjoy a dinner of local Jordanian food and traditional Zarb (meat and vegetables cooked under the sand) along with breakfast. Water, coffee, and our famous tea are available throughout the day. Read more about Candles Camp accommodations.
Next day after the breakfast we will drive you back to Wadi Rum village by jeep.
