Wadi Rum Desert Tours - Jeep Driving Through the Desert

If you want to explore Wadi Rum more intimately than you could from the air in one of our balloons, then we offer some amazing Wadi Rum desert tours to give a closer perspective on the wonders of the Wadi Rum desert wilderness.

We offer a comprehensive selection of activities in Wadi Rum for you to enjoy. They’re all made for you and aim to help you see the best of what the incredible Wadi Rum Protected Area offers in the way of nature, as well as what it hides in the way of culture and history.

The area has been inhabited for thousands of years by different cultures. We can show you some of the things those cutlures left behind while immersing you in the breathtaking nature and geological formations of the present day.

Use the links below to navigate the Wadi Rum activities on this page

Now, let’s get into the details of our activities in Wadi Rum and how they can help you get to know the area from a different perspective. We hope the delight of our tours will live on in your heart long after they are over.

Wadi Rum Desert Safari – One of the Top Wadi Rum Activities

Are you wondering what a desert safari is? It’s basically a tour of the incredible desert of Wadi Rum with a knowledgeable Bedouin guide. What’s unique about this version of our Wadi Rum desert tours is that you get 360 degree views of the landscape from the back of a jeep.

This novel way of carrying passengers makes for a more immersive experience. Passengers get to feel the wind in their hair while having a larger range of vision on their surroundings. That means you get to see much more than you could ever see from a car window.

It’s a pretty cool way to experience the desert, even if we do say so ourselves. Plus, there’s always tea.

Desert Safari Activities in Wadi Rum

So now that you know what a desert safari is, let us give you a run down of the different types of desert safaris that we offer, to fit in with your interests and your schedule.

For those with only a short amount of time to explore Wadi rum, we have a two hour safari, which is a great introduction to the area. We normally cover some historical sites, including Nabataen inscriptions, as well as some natural wonders like springs and canyons in this Wadi Rum activity.

That being said, we can customise these Wadi Rum desert tours more if you want to focus more on your personal interests. If you want more nature, you’ve got it. If you want to see more history, we can organise that for you too. Just let us know what works for you.

If you have a bit more time, our half day tour is great for getting a more indepth undertstanding of the area. We cover everything in the two hour tour, with more natural wonders and history added.

Probably the best of our desert safaris are the full day ones. We can show you so much more and also give you an extra taste of our hospitality with lunch. Our guide will truly amaze you when he uses minimal resoucres to turn the desert into a Bedouin dining room.

The ultimate exploration of the Wadi Rum Protected area comes with our multi day Wadi Rum desert tours. You’ll see things that most visitors miss, while gaining first hand experiences of just how awesome desert life is.

What Wadi Rum Desert Tours Do We Offer?

We have a range of tours to suit your schedule and interests, whether they be history, culture, nature, or all three! For those short on time, our two hour Wadi Rum Safari is a good way to see some nature and history while learning about our culture.

When you have a bit more time, we recommend our half day Wadi Rum Safari, which can be done in the morning, or the afternoon, depending on what syncs best with your schedule. It builds on the two hour tour, with more nature, more history and more culture.

Our most popular Wadi Rum Safari is the full day one. You can see an amazing amount of nature and history in that time, as well as witness the enthralling spectacle of your Bedouin guide magically creating a meal and turning the desert into a restaurant.

But honestly, one day really isn’t enough to discover all the wonders of the Wadi Rum desert. So, if you’ve got more time, we can offer multi day Wadi Rum Safaris with accommodation at our camp. With this option, you can immerse youself in desert life and see the rarely seen secrets of the desert.

So, to summarise for you, we offer the following Wadi Rum desert tours and safaris:

  • Two Hour

  • Half Day

  • Full Day with lunch

  • Multi Day with accommodation at our Wadi Rum camp

You can contact us using the WhatsApp button on this page if you’re ready to book you adventure of a life time on one of our Wadi Rum desert tours.

Which of Our Wadi Rum Desert Tours is Right For You?

This depends on the amount of time you have to explore. If your schedule is tight, then the best choices from our Wadi Rum activities would be the two hour or half day Wadi Rum Safari. We do cram a lot of nature and culture into theses tours, but they never feel rushed!

For those with more time, a full day Wadi Rum desert tour is a great choice. You’ll get more opportunities to enjoy the serenity and expansiveness of the otherworldly desert terrain. Our friendly guide will keep you entertained, informed and fed, to ensure a fabulous and intriguing tour.

Although, if you have several days, you can explore the desert more profoundly with one of our multi day adventures. You’ll see the hidden gems that most visitors miss while you experience more Bedouin hospitality and culture.

We can cater to all your sightseeing desires while still keeping your Wadi Rum desert tours within your schedule. Contact us, via the WhatsApp button, to organise your perfect itinerary today.

We supply water and tea during all our tours, as well as lunch on the full day tours. If you need snacks in between, feel free to bring some with you. Although, sometimes, why might have some special local snacks to share with you over tea.

Perfekt start på dagen. Soloppgang over ørkenen En helt fantastisk luftballongtur over Wadi Rum. Superhyggelige mennesker og en dyktig, rolig og vennlig kaptein som styrte ballongen trygt. Utsikten var spektakulær, stemningen avslappet og opplevelsen helt perfekt. Kan virkelig anbefales til alle som besøker området.

Spektakulær og magisk opplevelse Ypperlig service fra start til slutt – vi ble hentet direkte i camp’en, noe som gjorde opplevelsen svært enkel og behagelig. Sikkerheten var tydelig godt ivaretatt, med en trygg og svært erfaren pilot samt dyktige medhjelpere. Hele teamet strekker seg langt for å gi gjestene de beste opplevelsene. Som en hyggelig overraskelse ble vi også servert enkel bevertning etter turen. Husk å ha med kontanter!

THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER - MAGNIFICENT !!! This was an experience of a lifetime. we went very early morning, met at the assigned place and were transported out about 30 minutes to the balloon set off place. There were two balloons and about 16 people in each balloon. The instructions were clear and concise and the whole thing felt safe and very well organized. The one hour ride was amazing - the pilot very informative - the sunrise view incredible as was the desert and mountains from above, almost surreal. The landing was easy and the trucks close by to pick us up . I would 100% recommend Balloons over Rum for an unforgettable experience

Awesome Hot air balloon experience! We did the sunrise experience. An awesome experience. Everyone had so much fun. Get your cameras ready because the view is breathtaking . Safety was top priority. Very experienced balloon pilot. Explained everything thoroughly making sure everyone understood all instructions. I even facetimed home so they could enjoy the ride remotely with me. Jordan has been such an awesome experience so far. Everyone was worried about the war but we've not felt the impact here except decreased crowd. We are continuing our journey through Jordan with our tour group and it will continue to be an exceptional experience i'm sure. Hurry up and book your trip!!!

Float in silence above Rum Wadi as the sun rises over the Arabian desert Fabulous experience with hot air balloon pilot Bart. Company is very safety oriented. Bart gave a complete safety briefing beforehand, in multiple languages. Once airborne he kept his commentary to a minimum so we could enjoy the scenery in silence while remaining responsive to questions. Transportation to and from our Wadi Rum resort was punctual. Highly recommend this company.
