  Wadi Rum Protected Area

  Lunch is the most special part of our tour. I'll take you to visit some of my family at their Bedouin camp while I make you lunch. You'll get a glimpse of animal-rearing in the desert and learn more about what a nomadic and seasonal lifestyle looks like in practice. This is the most authentic way to experience traditional Bedouin life and is not something many tourists do while visiting Wadi Rum - it is the most important part of this tour for me. Lunch will also be delicious! One of the highlights is Galayet Bandora, a traditional Jordanian Bedouin dish made of tomatoes, olive oil, onions, and spices, served with fresh bread. You'll eat, chat, and see a new side of the desert
