Jordan · DINING EXPERIENCES
The good dining experiences fill up in spring and autumn and the best go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and where they differ.
Spend a full day with guides such as Bakhir, Yasser, Tamir, or Omar touring Wadi Rum by open-back 4x4. See Lawrence’s Spring, Khazali Canyon, red dunes, rock bridges, and the white desert, then eat Bedouin food and sleep in a private tent.
“It was amazing. The people working there and the guide was fantastic. It was a trip to remember for a lifetime.”
Join Mamdouh and his Bedouin team for a half-day jeep tour through Wadi Rum. Visit Lawrence’s Spring, Khazali Canyon, red dunes, rock arches, and sunset viewpoints, then enjoy tea, dinner, breakfast, sandboarding, and a private tent with a toilet.
“Mahmoud was an amazing guide. He was very attentive and accommodating. He was very knowledgeable about the area. We really enjoyed our stay in the camp, it truly felt like a super unique and special thing to experience.”
Explore Amman by private air-conditioned vehicle with an English-speaking driver, stopping at the Citadel, Roman Theatre, markets, mosque, Rainbow Street, and Jabal Al-Webdeih. Finish with a generous Arabic mezze lunch or dinner. A longer version adds Jordanian wine tasting.
“Our tour was in the evening, so we quickly ran out of daylight. But what we saw was interesting. The dinner was beyond our expectations. The variety and flavour of the set menu was fantastic. The fruit juices were also amazing. We highly recommend the dinner experience. Bader (our driver) did a great job.”
Start at Wadi Rum Village at 10:00 with a private Jeep tour led by local guides such as Odeh or Atallah. Visit canyons, arches, dunes, springs, and sunset viewpoints, then enjoy dinner and a night in a Bedouin camp. Choose tent lodging or sleeping beneath the stars.
“Very great experience. My husband and I book a private tour and the guide bring us all over the Wadi Rum in a perfect way. He gave us all explanations and help us with questions and pictures too. The night in the camp is really suggestive, eRead more”
Pick a canyon, a castle or a stretch of water.
