Important information about tours & excursions >>

Wadi Rum

Wadi Rum, the largest wadi (valley) in Jordan, has been home to several tribes including the Nabateans who left their trademark in the form of paintings, temples and rock graffiti. It is the setting of the Arab revolt lead by the famous T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia). The present inhabitants are the Bedouin tribe.

Take a ride in a jeep and feel the wind in your hair as you climb the never-ending desert landscape and rock formations, each of them made out of sandstone, granite and basalt displays a glorious range of colours.
