Enjoyable and fun stay in the desert.
Great time experiencing the amazing Wadi Rum desert with this company. An authentic experience inside the desert park with an overnight stay in a comfortable bed in a tent, with musical entertainment in the evening and tasty food for dinner and breakfast provided. The next day we were taken to see the sights of the desert (and of course a short camel ride!) by Izam our friendly guide, who cooked us a substantial lunch over an outdoor fire in the desert. All round enjoyable and fun trip. I would recommend the company to anyone wanting to see the Wadi Rum desert with all its natural beauty and special sites.

Outstanding desert experience with Isam as a guide and driver
We had the best time travelling across the Wadi Rum desert on the rooftop of a jeep catching the sunset, then having a tea on the top of a dune and having a night stand in the camp. The dinner and breakfast were delicious. Our driver, Isam, was super kind. We felt truly taken care of. We were travelling with the whole family: grandparents, two kids (2 and 5 years old), my wife, my sister and her husband. We were lucky enough to have whole jeep just for us without paying extra for it.

The kindest camp
We did the full day camel ride and stay at the camp. Everyone that works there are extremely kind and generous. They made herbal tea to help with a troubled stomach and brought food to the tent for us, and drove us back to the camp to look for phone that was left by accident. They were checking how we were and always smiling and helpful.

Great experience!
We did the full day jeep tour with a camel ride and the overnight stay. We really enjoyed this activity. We got lunch, dinner and breakfast. Our guides drove us around in Wadi Rum and showed us the best places. It was really fun! Highly recommended!

One Day Tour Wadi Rum: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Aqaba.
How much does One Day Tour Wadi Rum cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Aqaba usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does One Day Tour Wadi Rum take?
+
Plan for about 7.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Aqaba is not rushed.
Is One Day Tour Wadi Rum worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 53 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Aqaba, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule One Day Tour Wadi Rum?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is One Day Tour Wadi Rum suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book One Day Tour Wadi Rum?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Aqaba can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Aqaba and add a light layer if any part of the 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does One Day Tour Wadi Rum start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Aqaba within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Aqaba?
+
On Outty we rank every Aqaba experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 4x4 Full-Day Desert Tour, Wadi Rum Full Day Jeep Tour + Overnight & Dinner in Bedouin Camp, Diving, Snorkeling & Leisure Cruises by Boat. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Aqaba?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Aqaba?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in One Day Tour Wadi Rum?
+
Included: Bottled water; Lunch; and Tea and coffee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
What languages is One Day Tour Wadi Rum offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for One Day Tour Wadi Rum?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is One Day Tour Wadi Rum wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to One Day Tour Wadi Rum if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
What do travelers say about One Day Tour Wadi Rum?
+
Across 53 reviews averaging 4.9 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, the guide. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
