Wadi Rum
A protected desert of red sand and sandstone mountains, best seen from a 4×4 and a night under the stars.
Overview
Valley of the Moon
Sandstone mountains rise straight out of the red sand of Wadi Rum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011. Rock carvings and inscriptions here record some 12,000 years of human life. Look at how wind and water have worn the rock into rounded domes, hollows and deep vertical cracks.
Explore by 4×4 or camel, then spend the night in a Bedouin camp under some of the clearest skies in the region.
Highlights
Don’t miss
-
A 4×4 tour
Local Bedouin guides drive between dunes, canyons and natural rock bridges, stopping wherever the views open out.
-
Rock inscriptions
Carvings of people and camels, and lines of ancient writing, cover the rock walls in places such as Khazali Canyon.
-
A night in a Bedouin camp
Dinner is often zarb: meat and vegetables slow-cooked in a pit under the sand.
-
Desert stars
Far from city lights, the sky is dark enough on clear nights to see the Milky Way.
