Great experience

Wadi rum was great, we liked the jeep tour through the desert, but one of the best things for us was the camp there. The tent, the food, the bar, the atomsphere... every thing was amazing there. Next day in Petra was also nice, our guide gave us good advices and we had enough time to experience Petra by our own. Our tour guide "Nizar" was amazing. His way to talk to us and explain history was captivating. All in all it was a great experience and we enjoyed the tour a lot. It is not so cheap but the price is comparable to other providers and you really get value for your money.

Fantastic time

We visited Petra and Wadi Rum as a family and the whole experience was great. We stayed at the Magic Rum Martian Tent in Wadi Rum, which is the upgraded option. This is the first time we stayed in this kind of facility and it was super special.
