    Fine location just next to Little Petra. Quite standard bedouin camp experience, but well kept. Very good food too.

    We had the camp to ourselves with my 12yo son. We enjoyed it a lot. The fun started right upon arrival when our car got stuck in the sand. The owner helped us out of the tricky situation and then provided us with tea, food and all the comforts....
