Before You Book
The things travelers ask us most about this tour.
A fair amount, but nothing strenuous. 4x4 travel over sand with short walks and optional dune scrambles, then a night at a desert camp with deliberately basic facilities. If someone in your group has limited mobility, tell us before you book — we can usually adjust the route or the pace rather than have you find out on the day.
It runs 2 days / 1 night across a single base — Wadi Rum and Jordan. The day-by-day breakdown is on this page, and start times flex around your flights and how early you like to begin.
Jordan visa, lunch, tips and personal spending sit outside the price. Tipping is customary in Egypt but entirely yours to judge, and nothing on the day is compulsory — you will not be taken to a shop you did not ask for.
Yes — every tour here is a starting point rather than a fixed package. Swap a site, add an experience or a photoshoot, change the pace, or extend it by a day and we will rebuild the schedule around you.
