We stayed overnight at this Desert camp. All I have to say is, you can skip this place. Accommodation in a tent was average.

If hygiene is on top of your mind,... More

Captains was very accomadating. Our 4 hour tour of the dessert was perfect and ended with a beautiful view of the sunset. Our driver Hassan was patient and fun. The BBQ and spread for dinner was amazing. The restrooms are clean, the tent was clean with comfortable beds.

The tent was simple, with two single beds and a table. The facilities for the toilets and showers are shared, however... More

Good simple food and hospitality makes this Camp one of the most comfortable in the Wadi Rum area. The evening meal was prepared in a Bedouin underground cooking oven which... More
