Is a holiday rental in Wadi Rum worth it?
A holiday apartment in Wadi Rum offers you the perfect combination of independence and comfort. Enjoy Impressive nature, Fascinating culture and experience Wadi Rum like a local – with your own retreat after an action-packed day.
Wadi Rum, the Valley of the Moon in southern Jordan, is a desert landscape of otherworldly beauty: Massive sandstone cliffs in shades of red, orange, and violet rise like cathedrals from the red sand, while the silence of the desert is only interrupted by the wind. It is no coincidence that Wadi Rum served as a film set for Lawrence of Arabia, The Martian, and Star Wars.
The Bedouins of Zalabia and Eid offer jeep safaris, camel rides, and guided climbing tours through the rugged rock world. Highlights include the Khazali Canyon with its millennia-old Thamudic rock carvings, the natural rock bridge Burdah Rock Bridge, and Lawrence's Spring, where T.E. Lawrence rested during his desert campaigns. Sand boarding over the red dunes is a popular adventure.
However, the true magic unfolds at sunset and at night: When the rocks are bathed in fiery red and later one of the clearest starry skies in the world appears, you understand why Wadi Rum is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Overnight stays in Bedouin camps under the open sky or in luxury bubble tents with panoramic views are unforgettable. The combination with Petra and Aqaba on the Red Sea makes Jordan a perfect travel destination.
