Being the very first camp in Wadi Rum, this camp has the perfect location to enjoy a stay at the dessert. If you seek a real Bedouin experience this camp is a great choice: you will enjoy authentic Bedouin cuisine and company, as well as comfort in private tented rooms, or the freedom to sleep under the stars. The Bedouin Meditation Camp gives you the best of tradition, along with the necessities of the modern traveler, including WiFi. The camp also has the approval of the Jordanian government, following established protocol and procedures necessary to minimize human disturbance and activities, and to ensure that future generations can enjoy this magnificent location. ​

Family-owned and operated, this camp is managed by a well-esteemed member of the Zalabieh tribe.​ Owner​ Zedane Al-Zalabieh has 25 years of experience guiding and showing nature's marvels to Jordanians and foreigners alike. ​Like his predecessors before him, Zedane lived in the desert all his life. Born and raised here, Wadi Rum is a permanent part of his life and his nature. He entered the tourism industry because it was a way to bring the outside world to his footsteps. Sharing his world to his guests, he learned a lot through the cultural exchanges and interactions.

By day, tours of the desert can be arranged by Jeep, camel and horse, as well as hiking and climbing trips. Jordan's highest mountain, Jabal Umm ad Dami, is nearby and offers breathtaking views of Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Experienced guides will show you the best of the Wadi Rum, including the cave artistry that is hundreds of years old, the astonishing natural rock bridges, and the hidden oases of green.
