Wadi Rum: Private Overnight in a Luxury Bedouin Camp

Spend a full day and night in the 'Valley of the Moon' — a UNESCO World Heritage desert of rose-red dunes, towering sandstone jebels, and absolute silence. A private 4×4 Bedouin jeep tour and glamping dinner under a billion stars make this unmissable.

What to expect

Your private 4×4 departs Aqaba through desert plains arriving at Wadi Rum village, where your Bedouin guide takes over. The jeep winds between towering red sandstone mountains, past Lawrence of Arabia's spring, ancient Thamudic inscriptions, and sweeping sand dunes you can climb. Sunset over the desert is cinematically spectacular. Dinner is served Bedouin-style in an open-air camp before retiring to a furnished luxury tent under an extraordinarily starlit sky.

Good to know

This experience works best when your ship overnights in Aqaba or has a very late all-aboard. Confirm your ship's schedule before booking. The camp is approximately 1 hour from Aqaba port. Book your Wadi Rum Night Luxury Camp berth directly as capacity is very limited.
