We loved everything about our tour. Saleh's family was very welcoming and treated us like a part of the family. His wife prepared us lunch and it was one of the most delicious and homy meals we had in Jordan. His son, Muadh took us on the 4x4 tour and took us to the most beautiful and important sites as we were short on time. We will come again and take a longer tour with Saleh next time.

I love Saleh and the place. His place is well kept and all equipments work well. His family works as great team that made our stay excellent.Saleh and his son made sure not only that all basic hospitality requirements are all met, but they also do the extra miles by providing friendship and abundance of information and stories.We will definitely go to Saleh's again InshaaAllah.

Authentic and Beautiful!We spent 1 day and 1 night at Saleh's camp and it was everything we wanted.When we first arrived we felt right at home as we were welcomed into their house for tea and snacks.Did a short 1 hour tour and then we were treated to an amazing homemade lunch from Saleh's wife.After lunch Saleh's oldest son took us on a 6 hour adventure around Wadi Rum and all the sights, most of them we ended up having to ourselves.After the tour we were brought back to camp, first impressions are always something and this place did not disappoint.Our room was a 2 person Bedouin cabin with a small window with a huge view.Saleh has multiple buildings for small to large groups and everything in-between.Please note this is not the giant companies with domes and A/C and pools, Saleh's camp is a family run business and is more authentic with simple rooms and great views.After check in we went to an amazing sunset spot, then we were called for another home cooked meal.. Spectacular.Our night was filled with drum lessons and conversation by the fire.I highly recommend it.

Great experience as first-time visitors in Wadi Rum. Due to itinerary constraints, we could only fit a 3-hour tour in our schedule, but it was well worth it. Communication prior to the tour via Whatsapp was very smooth and easy, and they did not ask for pre-payment of any form. Saleh sent us a location in the Wadi Rum Village to meet, where we parked our rental car at his house. We were greeted by his family upon arrival, and offered tea and coffee while waiting for him. The vehicle was very nice and in good condition, it was a Toyota pick-up with a bench in the back to enjoy the desert views. The tour was beautiful, Saleh drove us to the main desert sights and provided historical context to understand the Wadi Rum as a place of passage. We particularly enjoyed the Red Sand Dunes, the Khazali Canyon and the Special Canyon hike. We found the bridges to be very touristy and not that worth it. I’d definitely recommend them for a Wadi Rum tour!

Saleh’s camp is the best experience I had in Jordan! It is a real authentic Bedouin experience. The price we paid was very reasonable for a fully package. We arrived way earlier than expected but Saleh’s family were generous enough to offer us lunch at their home, before going on a safari tour with his son to the best spots in Wadi Rum. Their camp and the night stars were amazing! Great place for families, friends, or couples!! This is really the best experience I had in Jordan.
