The Jordan Pass is a tourist package the country of Jordan offers which waives the 40 JD entrance fee into the country, the 5 JD entrance to Wadi Rum and the steep price to see Petra. It is NOT mandatory to purchase. It also includes 40 tourists attractions in total but requires that you stay in Jordan a minimum of 3 nights. Link is below for more information. MUST BUY BEFORE YOUR ENTRANCE TO JORDAN!

There is no dress code, please come as you want. The only requirement is that you wear some clothes :).

​

We can arrange traditional Bedouin clothing for you, but most importantly you may want to pick up a leffe (kofia), a traditional Bedouin headdress, which will protect your face from the wind and sun. Also a leffe can be a useful item for all your camping, adventuring and traveling in the future.

This is completely based on how busy we are during the season and how much notice you give us before. We are always happy to accommodate you in whatever you may need or want, just give us a little notice and we should be able to help you. Unplanned fun is always the greatest surprise, and we love spontaneous adventure too.

Although traditional Bedouin meals may consist of meat, we have many delicious vegetarian options as well! Vegans are also welcome. Please tell us in advance before your arrival. Arboud, is a delicious vegan bread that we would be happy to teach you how to make.

The desert can get very hot. However at night it cools off fast and can get a bit chilly. Even if you wish to come in the summer, please pack a light jacket, pants and extra socks if you plan on camping with us.
