Wadi Rum Orion Camp

Value for money. Excellent service.

Nothing

Food, people and company was amazing!

I liked everything!

We've been warmly welcomed by Mamdouh and his family. They operate several camps in Wadi Rum, so you may have opportunities to move around different locations. Excellent traditional food, good advice for hiking and climbing easy summits in the area. Remember to download maps and topos while in the village, then enjoy this amazing desert!

I travelled alone to see the desert here for the first time. The view was incredible and it is super peaceful there. It was my first time meeting the local ‘Bedouin’ people. They were very charming and hospitable. I he room was big and the bed was comfortable. It was really cheap to stay but I paid more for a tour. There is an internet connection a few minutes from the camp. The owner can take you there.

It was really cold at night in the winter, so be prepared and bring warm clothes!

This property is located very deep inside the Wadi Rum desert and you can enjoy the sunset very well. The room is very clean and bathroom is equipped with the amenities what all we needed. I would like to thank Mr. Mamdouh for arranging so nice room for us and personally he showed us almost all places inside the desert. There is a big room separately available in few length where you can enjoy the morning breakfast and evening tea/coffee. Altogether, this place is very nice to stay for 1-2 days and enjoy the red desert.

Water is not passing properly in the bathroom. The management should look into it immediately.

Mamdu and his family took very good care of us. When we wanted to do a tour he helped organize everything and made sure our needs were met.

The host was personal and tried his best despite restrictions from the general Wadi Rum protection terms to make the trip pleasant.

The trip will be close to 10 if other fun activities are introduced apart from mountain climbing and camel riding only. We noticed that climbing gets boring after the first day, so 1 to 2 days trip plans at most are recommended. This, however, is bad for good hosts that have invested in their facilities and needs volume/ turnover of tourist to break even. Compared to other global sites like Malta deserts, Wadi Rum needs a revamp and opening up to compete at the global level.

Perfect stay. We stayed only one night and everything was perfect. The views are incredible. The breakfast included was very good. Thanks for everything!

Wadi Rum orion Camp is an amazing experience. The staff is great, accommodating all your wishes. I can definitely recommend a hiking tour to the least busy areas of the desert; it's an amazing experience. The staff will keep refilling your tea glass next to the bonfire. Also, the price for the tours and accomodation is very good compared to other camps and they are transparent about additionel activities Thank you mamdouh so much for everything
