Top Aqaba Active & Outdoor Classes

Jordan’s Wadi Rum Protected Area is a UNESCO-listed desert marvel of gorges, natural arches, cliffs, and caverns. Spend a day touring this unforgettable landscape, which includes petroglyphs and archaeological remains in addition to its natural wonders. A traditional Bedouin lunch will fortify you for the adventure, and you’ll even have a chance to try sandboarding on the tour.

We own the first Retreat Center in Jordan and are proud to offer yoga and meditation classes in a unique area of Wadi Rum. Before we explore the desert on a 4x4 tour with you guided by local Bedouins. This allows you to have the best experience because the locals know the area best. On the tour you can also drink real Bedouin tea with the Bedouins and sit around the fire. Learn where Lawrence of Arabia traveled in Wadi Rum and how Bedouin women used to bring their children into the world. There is also the option of staying overnight in our traditional Bedouin glamping camp. The tents are made of goatskin, just like the Bedouins. The Bedouins have been making their tents from this material for centuries, which makes them particularly sustainable. The tents are equipped with bed linen and towels, just like in a normal hotel - except that you spend the night in the middle of the desert: with solar energy. Explore how bedouins used to live in the desert.
