2D/1N Wadi Rum Exodus Tour with Basic Camp & Hike Mount Paran

This option gives you two full days to explore some of Wadi Rum's most iconic sites en route to the majestic Mount Paran, located on the lesser-explored backside of the Wadi Rum Wilderness Area.  On the first day, you will experience the traditional Wadi Rum Jeep Tour, which takes you to all the most popular tourist sites in Wadi Rum before enjoying a desert sunset and arriving at camp.

Upon reaching the camp, you will be guided to your tent, setting the stage for an authentic Bedouin evening. You will experience the traditional Zarb, a dish cooked in the time-honored Bedouin method of underground preparation. After dinner is a time for Bedouin stories, music and the vast, starry night sky. Should you wish to sleep under the stars instead of in a tent, your preference can be accommodated near the campsite. 

On the second day, you'll ascend Mount Paran accompanied by an experienced Bedouin guide. Hikers are encouraged to take their time and climb slowly. The hike is strenuous but not as difficult as climbing Mount Sinai. You should bring a backpack with water, sunscreen and a camera. The total time of ascent and descent should be about 4-5 hours.  At the summit, you can enjoy sweeping views, gazing over Wadi Rum and the valleys that the Israelites likely traversed during the Exodus.  After a lunch break, you will have time to see a few popular spots in Wadi Rum on your return.  You should arrive back at Wadi Rum Village around 4:00 PM. 

This trip begins at Wadi Rum Village in Jordan.  There is a 5 JOD fee to enter Wadi Rum Wilderness Area.
