Wadi Rum

Jordan

A 3-day trip to Wadi Rum

Wadi Rum is Jordan's red desert — sandstone valleys, Bedouin camps, and a moonscape used as Mars in the movies.

Wadi Rum is Jordan's protected desert — red sand dunes, sandstone arches, and Bedouin camps under a sky full of stars. It's been Mars in dozens of films, and a night in a desert camp with the stars overhead is one of the great travel experiences. Combine it with Petra and the Dead Sea for the Jordan loop. Go with a Bedouin guide in a 4x4.
