Rum Planet Camp is operated by the Bedouins themselves aiming at making your desert experience as individual as possible. Since the camp is hosting a maximum of 25 people, you will not only get the service you deserve but also have the chance to find quietness and get to know the Bedouins. The staff is very friendly, professional and open to explain the diversity of Arab culture. Due to years of experience in guiding tourists through the desert, they can show you the most impressive places of Wadi Rum, no matter if you like to hike up the highest mountain, watch the sun rise from the dunes, or visit the place where Lawrence of Arabia held its strategic meetings.
