    I had an amazing time in the desert. The family really did a fantastic job to show their way of life and show the desert. Salam invited me to the wedding from his cousin which was an amazing experience to witness. They are such a friendly family...

Company information

My name is Salem Sabbah, and my family has lived in the desert for generations. All of my brothers and I are guides in the desert. We have been Bedouins for hundreds of years, and we are part of the Al-Zalabieh tribe. Wadi Rum is a very special place for us, and it is a pleasure for us Bedouins to welcome others to show them the special place that we call home.

Property information

Welcome to Wadi Rum! There are many great camps, but Family of Desert Camp might be the friendliest. We would like to welcome you to the desert and show you the beauty of the Wadi Rum. Our camp has 10 tents that can each accommodate 1-4 people. There is also the possibility of sleeping under the stars, surrounded by nothing else than desert and stars, if you are interested. The camp includes a shared bathroom with squat toilets, running water, and a shower. During the evening, we have electricity via generator for a few hours, but usually spend the evening around the fire looking at the stars. We want to show you the desert life; be prepared for no cell service or internet connectivity. Breakfast is included in all the rates, and is the typical Bedouin food: there is everything for everyone, fresh bread, eggs, cheese, ham, salad, etc. If you would like additional meals, we are happy to accommodate you. Our delicious dinner is 10 JD per person: traditionally made chicken and vegetables made in a 'serp' (ground oven), with all the salad and rice you can eat. Lunch is 5 JD per person. Please let us know when you make your booking if you would like either or both of those.

Neighbourhood information

Many people travel to Jordan specifically to see Wadi Rum: the sand, the mountains, and the Bedouin life. The entrance into Wadi Rum protected area is 5JD, but the entrance fee is included in the Jordan pass. Wadi Rum Village has shops and places to eat. To get to Our camp you need to get to Wadi Rum Village, and from there we will pick you up and take you into the heart of the desert where you will spend the best of your nights.
