Description
"Escape the crowds and go deep into the red sands. Enjoy a traditional lunch cooked over an open fire in the shade of a canyon, explore ancient Nabataean secrets, and witness the world-famous
Your journey begins at the Wadi Rum Village, where you will hop into your private 4x4. Unlike standard tours, we start by heading to a secluded canyon for a Traditional Bedouin Picnic. Watch as your guide prepares a fresh meal over an open fire—the true way of the desert nomad.
After lunch, we explore the heart of the protected area. You will visit the Red Sand Dunes, where you can kick off your shoes and feel the softest sand in Jordan. We then move to Khazali Canyon, a narrow crack in the mountain filled with ancient Nabataean and Thamudic inscriptions.
We wrap up the adventure by driving to a Remote Sunset Point. While the sun dips below the horizon, turning the mountains into glowing embers, your guide will brew a final pot of sage-infused tea. This is the quiet, authentic Wadi Rum you came to find."
