Lawrence’s Tour – 3 Days & 2 Nights – Camel, Jeep and Hiking

This tour is different to many other tours in Wadi Rum as it takes you to the more remote parts in the South of the protected area. It is especially suited to those wanting to experience what T.E. Lawrence would have experienced in his day. Fighting alongside many Arabic tribes, including those tribes of Wadi Rum against the Ottoman Empire. You can find out why Lawrence has described Wadi Rum as ‘vast, echoing and godlike’. As well as travelling the desert by jeep and hiking up the scenic slopes of Jebel Al Hash, you can enjoy a longer camel ride and of course stay overnight in our desert camp.

Day 1

On the first day, we will explore desert’s major sites by Jeep such as Lawrence’s House, Lawrence’s Spring and Shallalah spring which are all part of the local folklore surrounding him. Furthermore you will see sand dunes, infasheh inscription and um ashreen canyon. Then look for nice place to have a rest and have some lunch. After lunch you will reach barrah canyon and mushroom stone.

At the end of the day, we will travel to our desert camp where you can enjoy the Bedouin hospitality. This includes food, music and relaxing for the night.

Day 2

The second day offers something completely different! After breakfast, you will trek for 6-7 hours by camel. Allowing you to get a real feel for travelling in the desert. Just like the caravans of years ago, 1000 years or 100 years ago during the Arab revolt.

There is really nothing like exploring the desert by camel! And their handlers will be able to answer any questions you have about these ‘ships of the desert’.

After the journey, you can enjoy a second night in the camp.

Day 3

On the final day we travel further south to the distant region near Jebel Al Hash. This area of the desert is more hilly, meaning that it is possible to hike up its slopes. Making it an easier mountain to climb without having to scramble.

The total time to discover Al Hash on foot is about three hours. After this, we will return to Wadi Rum Village to conclude the tour.

It is important to us that you can enjoy the Bedouin experience when they take their sheep and goats to graze in these mountains as well as riding camels. Known as the ‘ships of the desert’, riding camels as they slowly move through the landscape is a true experience of Bedouin life in this desert, travelling as nomads did in the past when they were traveling by camels to fetch water and food for their families.

The jeep tour is the fastest way of seeing the best of Wadi Rum. Travelling by jeep, you will discover and see the major sites and views.
