The best way to explore Wadi Rum is by walking & riding
Just like the Ancestors of the Bedouins, who live today in this area you will explore the beautiful nature of the desert.
Wadi Rum is called "Mars on earth" because the blood red sands and the unworldly sandstone mountains create an uncanny Mars-like landscape and environment, making you truly feel like you are stepping foot on another planet, though you are right here on Earth.
Wadi Rum is a Hollywood favorite for films set on the red planet. So far it has served as the backdrop for many Hollywood films like The Martian (2015), The Last Days on Mars (2013) and many other films.
Not just sweeping sand dunes and gargantuan rock mountains, a spectacular series of natural arches, towering cliffs, massive landslides, dramatic cavernous weathering forms and narrow gorges can also be viewed here. Wadi is the Arabic term traditionally referring the bed or valley of a river that is usually dry except in the rainy season.
