About this activity

From Wadi Rum you and your guide will first go by jeep to visit the Lawrence Spring. Then you will go to see the Map and afterward the Sand Dunes, which is a large area of sand dunes piled up against the mountains. It's fun to climb to the top and then race down. You'll have about half an hour in this area for climbing and exploring the dunes, and then you will go to see the Ancient Inscriptions. After viewing the inscriptions left by ancient trade caravans, you will travel to see the Lawrence's House followed by Burrah Canyon which is a long, deep canyon between dramatic mountains. It is very beautiful in the morning or late evening, when the sun turns the rock deep orange. Here you will have a Bedouin lunch with Bedouin tea. Then your guide will take you to see Burdah Canyon. From there, you will continue to the Um Frouth Rock Bridge and afterwards to the Small Arch. The next site you'll visit is Khazali canyon then a spectacular sunset. Finally we'll drive you back to Rum Village.
