AttractionEntranceTimeWhy go
Wadi Rum Protected AreaJOD 5Full day minimum; most visitors stay overnightA UNESCO World Heritage desert of towering sandstone and granite massifs, sand dunes and canyons in southern Jordan; entry via the Visitor Centre is the gateway to every other site and activity in the valley.
4x4 Jeep Desert TourVaries2-4 hours (half day) or full dayThe classic way to see Wadi Rum's highlights in a half or full day: an open-back pickup driven by a local Bedouin guide loops between dunes, canyons, rock bridges and viewpoints that are otherwise inaccessible.
Overnight Bedouin Camp ExperienceVariesOvernightSleeping a night in the desert at a Bedouin-run camp, from simple tents to 'martian' bubble domes, with a traditional zarb dinner cooked underground and stargazing far from any light pollution.
Khazali CanyonIncluded20-30 minutesA narrow, shaded slot canyon in Jebel Khazali with Nabataean, Thamudic and early Islamic petroglyphs and inscriptions carved into the rock walls, some roughly 2,000 years old; an easy walk-in stop on most jeep tours.
Lawrence's SpringIncluded20-30 minutesA small natural spring on the slope of Jebel Rum associated with T.E. Lawrence and the Arab Revolt, reached by a short climb; a shady rest stop with views back across the valley floor.
