• Wadi Rum Village - Meeting will occur at the Rest House in Wadi Rum Village, located on the right upon entering the village. After all guests are welcomed by the guide, the jeep tour will commence around 10:00. • Lawrence Spring - This natural water source features cool water flowing down the mountains and is a popular spot for camels. Surrounded by small trees and bright green moss, it serves as an oasis for relaxation, similar to how Bedouins and their herds would enjoy the area. Visitors can either watch herds of camels seeking fresh water or hike up the mountain for stunning views and ancient Thamudic inscriptions. • Red Sand Dune - This is the most renowned sand dune in Wadi Rum, distinguished by its red hue from iron oxide. Climbing this dune may seem simple, but the soft sand can make it challenging for visitors, adding to the amusement for locals observing. Once at the summit, visitors can take in striking panoramic views of the valley, and the most fun way to descend is by running down. • Khazali Canyon - It appears to be an ordinary mountain from the outside, but stepping into the canyon between the split mountains feels like travelling back in time. Guests can observe traces left by merchants travelling from Egypt to Damascus and pilgrims en route to Mecca. Ancient Thamudic, Nabatean, and Islamic inscriptions, along with petroglyphs of humans, animals, and footprints, can be seen within the canyon. • Little Bridge - This natural rock formation, shaped by severe weather over the years in the Khor El Ajram area, is called Little Bridge due to its modest height and easy ascent. Despite its size, it offers impressive views and is particularly suitable for families with children or those preferring not to climb too high. • Sunset Viewpoint - Wadi Rum is celebrated for its stunning sunsets, and the best spots to admire them will be revealed. Guests will be taken to a private location where they can enjoy a panoramic landscape as the sun sets while sweet Bedouin tea is prepared over a fire. Seating will be provided to relax and appreciate the surrounding beauty. • Following the sunset, guests will return to the village of Wadi Rum for rest.
