    Camping with Bedouins

    Posted by muldoon84 20 November 2010

    Unlike the more popular deserts I've experienced, Wadi Rum is how you imagined a desert to be - beautiful, playful sand beneath your feet, rather than ugly harsh rocks.
    Enjoying a little financial comfort from the tourism dollar, you can expect Bedouin guides to take you bombing around the desert in a well-traveled 4x4 truck, stopping off to explore beautiful scenery, jump off sand dunes, and indulge a little rock climbing if you wish.
    Expect to camp and eat in simple Bedouin camps with basic amenities, in the middle of the vast desert.

    Wadi Rum can be enjoyed as a day-trip from Petra, but budget 2/3 days to properly appreciate it. We booked a two days/one night package through our hostel in Amman.
    Everybody we spoke to about Wadi Rum had similar - excellent - experiences.
