"Rum the magnificent vast… echoing and Godlike" Lawrence of Arabia

The most spectacular desert scenery in the Middle East, Wadi Rum is located in the south of Jordan. Dramatic beauty of wonderful sand stone mountains with different colours, from white to pink and even red, will provide that unique experience of ideal sites for trekking, combined with local Bedouin experience of travelling and camping. The high red sand dunes, narrow canyons, low valleys and a high mountain were created by hundred million years of erosion and volcanic activities. Wadi Rum is the home of Bedouins, the soul of the Jordanian culture, who have lived there for hundred years continually preserving the same values and traditions of many nomadic Arabian tribes.

Jordan Echo Tours invite you to live that great experience by special tours run all the year long.

Our trip contact, Eslam, was extremely responsive and kept us up to date on everything. All the details including food, drivers, and luggage storage was taken care of. We had a great time in Wadi Rum and loved having the opportunity to add on a camel ride. It was truly beautiful and we are so glad we made the trip. We stayed at a camp in Wadi Rum also organized by Echo Tour Guide and it was so comfortable. The food was delicious and the lodgings were far better than we expected. It was great to have Jordan Echo Tours to ask about everything we wanted to do in Jordan. From Wadi Rum, we also traveled to Petra. Entrance fees and a guide were organized by Echo Tours. Everything went so smoothly and it was a great way to experience parts of Jordan.
Full day tour was great!

A very good tour with a driver from Aqaba to Wadi Rum, and then with a local Bedouin (required by law to be a local) all through Wadi Rum. The driving route through Wadi Rum was customizable, but we went with what the guide suggested and it was great. A private vehicle through Wadi Rum. The full-day tour is much better than the half-day, considering how much further you can explore the amazing landscape of Wadi Rum. Communication with the tour operator on Viator was quick and easy. I wanted a specific tour with transfer from Aqaba, since that's where we were staying the night. Highly recommend.

To visit Petra half a day is not enough, you have to have a full day, possibly sleep in one of the many hotels xhere are

An amazing experience! The day began with a driver pick up from the port and 1 hour drive to meet my Bedouin guide and his pick up. We then drove around to see the amazing sights of Wadi Rum - and we spent most of the time seeing no other people and truly experienced the vast wonder and stillness of this place. He cooked me lunch outside which was lovely - a proper picnic! Then the day ended seeing the sunset too. Definitely worth doing this trip.
Highly Recommend!

Amazing tour with excellent tour guides. We had a great visit at both Petra and Wadi Rum. We enjoyed personalized service and my favorite part was being around camels.
Great choice

We had a great day, our guide Nagi a real Bedouin living in Wadi Rum, he has taken us to spectacular places, we ate in the desert sitting quietly in a place where it was just us enjoying the scenery. Amazing and highly recommended, we were delighted. If we go back to hire tours with this agency, sure. Eslam and the other girl in the office very nice and attentive both, very friendly. We also included the dromedary ride at sunset and the only bad thing about the day was that there were clouds and we could not enjoy 100% of the sunset.
Amazing experience.
