Is this trip right for you?
This active hiking trip requires a good level of fitness, due to the varied terrain and potentially hot temperatures. Many of the hiking days involve hills and lots of steps that you'll need to be able to walk up and down. Walking times vary between three and six hours a day, but the rewards are worth every step.
Most of the time there is no shade, so remember to bring a hat, sun protection, and sturdy, comfortable hiking boots or walking shoes. The hikes occur over a range of terrains, we recommend you consider packing trekking poles for the hikes.
The feature stay desert camp in Wadi Rum is both comfortable and incredibly memorable. The high-end permanent tents have private ensuite western bathroom facilities. While the desert may be very hot during the day, it will still be cool at night, so remember to bring some warmer layers, especially if visiting outside of the summer months.
Some trails will require unexpected maintenance throughout the year, requiring closure of the trail. If that is the case we will take an alternative trail with similar features, distances and elevation where possible.
To get to the best hiking trails in the region you’ll cover a lot of distance on this trip, but all in the comfort of our private vehicle.
