What is Wadi Rum?
A vast protected desert of red sand and towering sandstone in southern Jordan - Bedouin camps, jeep and camel safaris, rock climbing, ancient rock art, and a night sky that draws stargazers. UNESCO mixed (cultural + natural) World Heritage since 2011. · whc.unesco.org
Can you sleep in the desert at Wadi Rum?
Yes - from classic Bedouin goat-hair tents to luxury glass bubble and dome camps with clear-sky stargazing. The luxury camps are the signature high-end stay and are capacity-tight in spring and autumn, so book well ahead. · unesco datasheet
When is the best time to visit Wadi Rum?
March-April and October-November - warm days and cool desert nights. Summer days reach about 40C (tour at dawn and dusk); winter nights can drop below freezing. · responsibletravel.com
