Fabulous,

“ Well ... the camp, the place and the Atallah's team are just amazing. We were there only for one night unfortunately, but it was a great experience. We had a very tight schedule but our hosts were very accomodating and they arranged our jeep tour as per our request. ”

Very hard to rate Wadi Rum - just an amazing experience as the scenery is so spectacular. The whole package at Camp Albiwi was well run and efficient. Unfortunately we only had time to stay one night.

Everything was great- from the time we arrived and went on our tour to leaving the next morning. The camp was well run, the staff accomodating and the tents warm and cosy. The description of what to expect from the camp was accurate. The evening meal was lovely!! One of the highlights of our trip. Excellent communication by e-mail while arranging the trip too.

Very good dinner around the fire and excursions (we took the one-day tour in Jeep: we did sandboarding, it was very funny). They organised also our transfers. Very nice camp, situated in the desert, just hidden near a rock.

Nice experience to stay overnight in a tent in desert (for us one night was good enough). English speaking and friendly staff. Night was cold, but there was warm blankets in the tent. Remember to take your own flashlight, nights are really dark, and campsite's generator and lights will be turned of soon after dinner. Our 5-year old boy loved jeep tour, sleeping in the tent, dinner by the fireplace with live beduing music etc. We had reservation only for the accommondation with breakfast, but once we got to the camp we were offered "package" with jeep tour, dinner etc. Ok, and kind of good service, except that at that time we did not realized that the package price was very expansive, dinner and "take a way" -lunch were quite modest, upgrated tent was propably the same we had reserved at the first place etc.

Great stuffs, daytrips, location, food, Attalah was very helpful in every possible way. He makes you feel like your are in your home. None. I knew there wont be any hot water so no complaints. Beds could have been slightly bigger though.

I like everything about the Alblwi Camp. At the entrance in the visitor center they called us to make sure we have arrived ok. Afterwards they welcome us at they office to explain the tour possibilities. The camp has beautiful location and was very well organized and clean. On top of that the staff made we feel comfortable and tried their best to help you.

We had such an amazing experience at Alblwi Camp! The staff and guides are so friendly and organise a great day and night. We did a full day jeep tour with hiking and climbing and then were brought to watch a sunset in the desert. The cabins are comfortable and the food that night was very good. Would love to go back and spend another night in the desert!

Attallah most helpful in organizing our trip. The desert was beautiful and the camp very comfortable. The staff were helpful in explaining the Bedouin life. Greatly enjoyed the 4 wheel drive tour and the camel ride back to rum village.

Very friendly and nice people. Words are not enough, you have to live the experience by yourself. Sunrise on the desert, jeep ride, good cuisine and very reasonable prices. Go and check by yourself :))

We had a very tight schedule but our hosts were very accomodating and they arranged our jeep tour as per our request. Atallah is also very clear on money and will not try to overcharge or anything, but he also gave us a small discount. Highly recommended! We just had one night. I would have loved to stay for at least 2 days to enjoy the area to the full.

The camp was in a magical setting in the desert amongst the mountains. The food was wonderful and the staff were very friendly and courteous. We were offered a variety of things to do; camel rides, balloon ride, camping under the stars, and in the end decided on the camping under the stars. We had a wonderful night in the desert where it was so quiet. Our guide cooked all the food, made constant tea, and tidied away all the equipment - this really was luxury! There was the four of us, my wife and daughter, and the guide. My daughter is 14 so, tricky to please, but she thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! We stayed in a 4 bed 'tent'. It wasn't really a tent in the traditional sense of the word as it had a low wall onto which the frame of the tent was placed. The frame was metal, although the cover was the traditional bedouin material. The two person tents seemed much cosier.

Heel mooie jeepsafari door de wadi rum, georganiseerd door attallah. Wij hebben de tour van 3 uur gedaan. Was geweldig! Eten in het kamp was erg lekker! Kortom, een onvergetelijke ervaring in de schitterende wadi rum!

L'esperienza è stata straordinaria. Anche se si può scegliere soltanto di pernottare e basta, consiglio assolutamente un'intera giornata in jeep nel deserto. Ad un prezzo ragionevole (circa 65 euro per cena, colazione, pranzo, pernottamento e un giorno intero in jeep con guida, con tè, acqua, tutto compreso) si vive un'esperienza indimenticabile. Lo staff è estremamente gentile e disponibile (Atallah, Auad). La sera durante la cena ci sono canti e danze beduine ma ciascuno è libero anche di stare nella propria tenda se non vuole partecipare. La tenda è pulita (si è comunque nel deserto!) e se si ha freddo ci sono coperte extra. Grazie a tutto lo staff

Очень понравился лагерь. Приятная обстановка, вкусный ужин. Красивые виды и тишина после отключения генератора в 9 вечера. Внедорожники в хорошем состоянии, а то мы видели туристов на машинах 60-х годов...

Отличное место для посещения долины Вади-Рам. Ночевка в палатках практически посередине пустыни, с ужином и бедуинскими музыкой и танцами под звездами. Однако к цене ночевки надо добавить стоимость поездки на джипе, но это того стоит - очень много красивых мест. Дружелюбный персонал, который помогал в решении наших проблем

Sa situation géographique exceptionnelle, le plaisir de se retrouver en plein désert, une certaine forme de confort agréable en présence d'enfants en bas age (lit, toilette et douche en dur !!) Idéal pour une famille avec des enfants ... Attention à ce que le camp ne s’agrandisse pas trop pour ne pas perdre l'idée de se retrouver "seul" en plein désert !

Im Wadi Rum muss man als Individualtourist unbedingt in einem Beduinencamp übernachten! Wir denken die meisten bieten in etwa das selbe an. Vorteil hier: Es hat alles geklappt, wir liessen uns an Ort beraten für die Ausflüge, sie sind alle sehr teuer. Der Chef ist sehr geschäftstüchtig, aber fair. Je nach Übernachtungsgästen kann es ein Nachteil sein, dass die Zelte sehr nahe aneinander stehen. Wir hatten Glück. Abends gabs ein Lagerfeuer und Beduinenmusik. Das Gemeinschaftshaus (WC,Dusche) ist einfach. Wir konnten nur cash bezahlen. Wir hatten zu wenig Bargeld, aber es liess sich organisieren. In Aqaba vom ATM bezogenes Geld wurde via anvisiertem Taxifahrer an Albiwi bezahlt. Es klappte! Vorsicht mit dem Kamelreiten. Wer es noch nie längere Zeit gemacht hat, sich zufrieden geben mit dem Ritt zurück ins Village (2h waren für mich zu viel ...).
