Reviews for Salman Zwaidh Camp

Review 1:We planned to stay two nights, ended up five. It was literally the best time we spent in Jordan!! Sweet Bedouin tea, delicious food and great people, a nice place to base yourself while explore the desert :-)

Review 2:Nothing.

Review 3:Met most of their staff. They are all friendly enough to make we all felt like home. All request are always fulfilled with simple YES answer. Nicr place, nice staff and nice and friendly Boss, Mr Salaman.

Review 4:At night, the wind is quite loud. Too much sands in the room.

Review 5:Staffs are good, they play music and we had a nice conversation. The dinner is delicious.

Review 6:The property is not really an authentic bedouin camp but more a touristic place.

Review 7:Wadi Rum is an exceptional location in Jordan and sleeping here is somewhat a different experience. People here are nice and polite.

Review 8:Excellent hospitality, very good service, staff was really nice and helpful, food was good. Despite a Common bathroom, it was very clean at all times and cleaned often. Hot water was available and staff did everything we requested for.

Review 9:Staff should know English better.

Review 10:Excellent facilities: clean toilets and shower, hot water. Comfortable clean bed, plenty of blankets. Good food. Well arranged transportation to the place, jeep and camel tours. Owner of a camp Salman is very wellcoming.

Review 11:There was no chairs to sit outside to view the desert or campfire to experience the desert night experience. We either had to sit in our tent room which was dark and no view, or sit at their main tent, which was also dark and no view.

Review 12:Close to the Visitors Center; staff was friendly; food was very good

Review 13:none- apart from rude guests who were not keen to learn about the culture and history of Beduins.

Review 14:I loved the camp in general, the staff were very friendly and lovely. It was great to have an evening lesson on Beduin History in Jordan by Ahmed. Wonderful experience overall.

Review 15:The only small complaint is that hosts should tell at which time they turn off diesel electricity generator, so we know when to charge devices and when hot water stops in shower, but that's minor thing.

Review 16:Salman, his brother and other guides were really helpful and hospitable. We arrived on bicycles, and did not know exact time, so was not able to told it to host, but Salman's brother waited us on the road to Wadi Rum to help us get to the camp. This is incredible level of service. Bathroom and toilets are very clean and modern. Food is tasty and the price is good. Common room is warm and with nice yellow gas lantern in the evening. We were treated with national dish after dinner.

Review 17:The staff are just wonderful - very attentive, kind and knowledgeable. They go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. The camp has everything you need and is much better value than those around it. The food is great, the beds comfortable and camping here in Wadi Rum desert is an experience you will never regret.

Review 18:Everything! Salman and his friends were super nice and attentive. They did their absolute best to fullfill our every need and we felt great at the camp.

Review 19:The perfect place to stay in Wadi Rum!The location is amazing, tents are clean and comfortable. Salman and his staff is very kind and helpful. They pick us up on the morning we have arrived and the next day they book the bus for us to Petra and took us to the bus for free. Breakfast and dinner was very delicious. I would recommend to everyone to stay at Salman's place it's a unique experience!

Review 20:Extremly friendly and welcoming. Team was doing all they could to make us feel comfortable and have a great time in the desert and in the camps. Very personalised treatment, singing and joyful stay.

Review 21:BEST TOILETS IN JORDAN! We are a family of four. I wanted to show the kids what it's like to sleep in the desert and experience the life of the Bedouins. I did NOT want a booze party or night life.We got exactly that! This camp is small, it has few amenities (well, none!) so we were a bit apprehensive about the toilets. It turned out that they have real toilets, better and cleaner than in the hotels we had stayed before. So that was a relief (so-to-say!).To our surprise, we were the only guests that night (because of the Syria situation which is hampering tourism).We were pampered with tea and had a delicious if simple dinner. The surroundings are just breathtaking. Walking into the desert and seeing the Sun go down over the camp and the hills is a unique experience.We had 3 local men looking after us. They did not speak one word of English, so we used sign language. It wasn't so much a customer/servant relation as one of mutual respect. They did not mind when we at first entered the main tent with our boots on, but after we saw them taking off their slippers we started doing the same.The beds are good and the blankets warm and soft. We had booked one tent (they have about 6) for a family of 4 but they had prepared 2 when we got there, thinking we would be happy for it. When we asked if we could all still sleep in one tent, they instantly rearranged one of the tents by adding two more beds.The night is spectacular, lying under the sheets and hearing the night breeze whisper between the tents. We were lucky in that we had a full moon shining over the sand and reflecting on the dark rock. Sometimes we could hear a camel bellow in the distance.In the morning we had again the BEST TEA in the world and a simple but delicious breakfast and then went for a jeep ride.This was a unique experience I would recommend to everybody with or without kids.

Review 22:Beautiful Camp location, next to huge rock and with view of the desert. Friendly and accomodating staff. Small and personal place. Basic, but with all necessites in place - including shower and good food.

Review 23:One shower, two toilets in a unisex block, up to 25 people but there for natural beauty so not so important

Review 24:Awesome desert location, welcoming friendly staff, eating area under colossal cliff face amazing, food delicious

Review 25:nothing

Review 26:Salman is such a warm hearted people, he picked us when we arrive and even take us to our hotel at Aqaba with his own car(with a reasonable price ). I also adore their Jeep safari, we got to know some different plants of desert and drove in the desert! They offered endless black tea which is also nice

Review 27:The beds were uncomfortable to sleep on, lots of squeaking with every movement, and the bedframe itself sags through so much that none of us got a decent night’s sleep.

Review 28:Lovely people, great location, the food was very nice (we asked for vegetarian and there were several options for us). Bathroom facilities were much better than we expected. The camp is in the shade during the day so you don’t have to sit in the direct sun, and the stars are amazing at night. I really enjoyed it there, even if you are not much for camping I think one night here is a must-do if you’re in the area

Review 29:We joined the 4X4 Jeep tour, no one able to told us where we had been visited; but it was fun to see & walk in the desert with Jeep. Don`t believe the staff in the Wadi Rum visitor centre. ** one of the staff persuade me to join super expensive camping from him, he asked for 100ILS; Also, he said that Salman Zwaidh camp was outside the protective area while I was waiting. He is a tricker! Be aware!

Review 30:honest staff & boss in this camp, they treat us as if we are family. No doubt it`s safety & service are good inside the desert (Wadi Rum protective area). We have good foods, drink, bed. The most important is that we could trust the camp organizer to stay without thrick.

Review 31:Visitor center fee was asked by an unknown man and we were clueless what to do.

Review 32:Salman is a fantastic guy....arranged Jeep tour which was fantastic....as we were vegetarian he allowed us to use his kitchen after the dinner...a big thanks!

Review 33:Salman has installed a generator - which will be replaced soon by solar power (much better, because I didn't like the sound of the generator).

Review 34:Great to be back again! Thanks for the great jeep tour to a different part of Wadi Rum this time. And thanks for making some early dinner sandwiches for the kids!

Review 35:Although this is normal provided you are in the middle of the desert, there is not a plug to charge your devices.

Review 36:The staff is super friendly. Very nice location.

Review 37:Wadi Rum is a fantastic place to visit, and Salman's camp has lots of advantages: shade all day, good authentic food, gracious hosts, and the bill was exactly as expected, no funny business! I have visited twice, and would gladly go again.

Review 38:The owner of the camp is very helpful he does everything for the comfort of his guests. he even picked me up from the tourist center as soon as I got there. I totally recommend other to stay with him. I had Dinner & Breakfast and it was really good

Review 39:They were extremely kind and helpful. This is a real beduin eexperence buy safe and fun. Breathtaking views for sunset and sunrise. Tent are ok, absolutely fit for the circumstances. People there are helpful, they take immediate action for every single request. I strongly recommend to everyone who like nature, adventure, and something different from usual and everyday things. Food was delicious and enough. Traditional tea was always available. 3 hours jeep tour was fun as well and value for money

Review 40:NOTHING. Everything was more than expected.

Review 41:Everything. The most important being the Owner, Salman and his brother, Ahmed. They go out and out to provide you solution as much they can in their capabilities. Best location as you do not feel the heat till 12 noon as the location is shaded with mountains. Since we were vegetarians, they let us into their kitchen and cook our own food with warm heart. The location is not that far away from main road (may be 3 - 4 km) so in case of any emergency, they make take us to nearby village.

Review 42:Salman and his crew are very welcoming and offer amazing tea. Unfortunately they don't offer anything more than lunch and dinner, so you have to bring your own snacks if you're hungry in between. It's a basic desert camp experience which means no internet and electricity, so be prepared. Sleeping under the stars and the jeep tour are memorable experiences.

Review 43:Tent gets a bit stuffy at night but you are free to sleep outside with the stars.

Review 44:We spent two nights in the camp enjoying the remarkable hospitality of Salman and the rest of his staff. They make you feel right at home and the sense of relaxedness and peace you get in the middle of the desert should not be missed. We drank lots of tea, rode a camel to watch the sunset, took a jeep tour and ate very very well. Salman takes excellent care of his guests. He never pushed any of the activities on us which was very refreshing and even ensured we got on our bus to Petra. Thank you!

Review 45:Keep in mind it's supposed to be a rustical experience, and you'll be fine. Dont miss the sunset 4x4 ride. Salman and his crew are very friendly. Had a great experience.

Review 46:Me, my wife and our 17 year old daughter had the privilege to spend 24 hours at Salman Zwaidh Camp and to enjoy the genuine hospitality of Mr. Salman and his brothers in the beginning of August 2015. The camp is located in an excellent place in the desert, below a high cliff which provides great shelter from the hot afternoon sun. We had a fantastic ride on camels with an Egyptian beduine who made us laugh a lot due to his natural entertaining attitude. They also took us for a ride in a four wheel drive and showed us many wonders of the desert, ending in a perfect spot to watch the sunset, which was beautiful. The dinner was delicious, cooked underground and sleeping outside under the stars was a great experience. Of course a camp in the desert is very basic but it is incredible how effective everything is, including clean water toilets and showers. Extremely hospital, friendly and honest people ! Thank you all for making our stay at Wadi Rum an unforgettable experience ! ! !

Review 47:Really great overnight experience. Sunset driving through a gorgeous desert, Bedouin music around the fire and tasty hot tea. Happy days. Strangely enough, these facilities in the middle of nowhere were pleasant and cleaner than many of the other places I stayed in Jordan.

Review 48:Transportation to Wadi Rum might get complicated, I advise to call the camp to help.

Review 49:Honest and clear regarding the price of everything, won't try to trick you.

Review 50:Salman and his Staff are very nice, friendly & extremely helpful they looked after us. Great people. Nice location in Wadi rum. If you like basics it is the place to go.

Review 51:Great people and fantastic place! They can pick you up from wherever you want & help to organize your time, meeting also the highest requirements!

Review 52:Very hospitable Staff. Faisal picked me up from the Visitor center and directly went to see the sunset, we had such a good time taking photos in this breathtaking place. Salman is taking care maximum of the wellbeing of his guests..Good facilities and very clean. Dinner and breakfast very tasty. The best place in Wadi Rum!

Review 53:I really loved my experience at this camp. Salman and his brother Faysal were so welcoming and friendly. They understood that we were travelers on an extremely tight budget and so they helped us avoid the 5 JD visitor entrance fee. They also gave us a discounted jeep tour which was excellent! I will definitely return to this camp, and I recommend it to everyone. Thanks so much Salman!

Review 54:It would be great if breakfast can be improved.

Review 55:Was a great stay in the camp. Hospitality of the staff was great. The camp manager, Mr. Ahmed was one great guy. We booked a wadi tour by the camp itself. Mr. Faisal was very freindly and drove us around the wadi and showed us all important places. Infact he encouraged me to climb the rock bridge, which i could not have done with his suggestions.( A big thanks to him for this ) Bathrooms were clean. The camp has all the facility one can expect in a desert.( except electricity...who cares..in the middle of a desert )

Review 56:Be wary of a tour operator floating around the camps in that area by the name of Achmed. He is a dishonest and greedy operator(offering desert safari tours) and should not be trusted. Deal only with Salman when arranging your desert safari as he is a good honest man that genuinely cares for his customers!

Review 57:Salmans exceptional customer service skills. Went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure we were satisfied which we really appreciated. Breakfast was great & dinner was also very filling for the 7JD.

Review 58:Not complains. Or dinner to late for ME, but it was ok.

Review 59:The camp it is very well attended, friendly people;they pick me up at the road, clean and comfortable tent, toilets and shower very clean. Breakfast and diner delicious.

Review 60:the location is eccentric, the isolation is what I seeekd and found, The staff made it very comfortable they are super hospitable. As a local who's familiar with Bedouin culture I can assure everyone this is the closest to reality!

Review 61:Make sure you take a lot of water with you because water at the camp is for one dinar for one big bottle. The weather in May - June can be very hot and the tent will turn into an oven in the evening. But everybody was sitting outside under the shade of the huge mountain and the weather was nice. And bring your flashlight!

Review 62:We came from Petra in the morning and the guy came to pick us up from the entrance to Wadi Rum. Everything was nice and amazing. The guys were taking good care of us. We had great breakfast for two days, on the arrival and the departure. We did camel ride for one hour and then 4-wheel drive for three hours for 50 JOD. Then we watched sunset in the evening. Then we ate delicious dinner around the camp fire. The stars were startling and so clear.

Review 63:Most welcome and friendly staff made us feel at home. They are trustworthy people unlike many people we had met before in Jordan. Dinner was plenty and delicious. After dinner we enjoyed bedouin music (beautiful voices of Khalid and Ali) and Ali's stories. Jeep and camel tour was amazing. Faysal was kind enough to give us his jacket to protect us from harsh wind of the desert. All in all it was an amazing night in desert.

Review 64:Lack of some of the places you might want to visit on the desert trip. But the desert car ride makes up for it.

Review 65:The camp is in a great location, just beside a big rock so you can have a tea in a shade if you want to escape the desert sun. It is also close to some nice places to watch the sunset and the stars in the night. The staff is very nice and helpful and will make anything to make sure you're having a good time while there. There was no problem at all with getting a vegetarian diner. We also got all the tea we could drink and some bottled water for free. The tents are good and the bathroom is clean and convenient. We went for a 4x4 desert trip with the owner. The trip was ok but you won't get to see all the main interest ponints like Nabataeans Temple or Lawrence House but the big plus is that if you're a cool person he will let you drive his car in the desert

Review 66:Dinner was just mediocre 4x4 drive around the desert felt pricey (35 JD for our couple)

Review 67:Very friendly staff Washroom quite good considering you're in the desert Fair price for camel excursion (~10 JD per pereson) The desert is beautiful! (I guess this applies to any camp in the area though)

Review 68:Great location: very nice surroundings, great place to watch the sunset and sunrise and a nice spot in the shade to relax, Salman is picking you up from the Visitors Center whenever you want (for free). Extremely friendly and very flexible hosts, also giving you space when needed, unseen hospitality, taking the time for a nice night walk. Very good breakfast (included) and dinner (7 JOD for an abundance of food), free tea all day and night, clean facilities, good prices for the tours in the desert. We were treated as royals and next time we're going back to Salman for sure!

Review 69:Very hospitable Staff. Taking care of every detail of our stay.Good facilities and very clean. Dinner and breakfast very tasty. The view of sunset is amazing! The best place in Wadi Rum!

Review 70:If you are very tall then the beds might be bit short for you (our friend is 6"4 & his feet hung off the end of the bed!). The pillows provided were fine but if you are very particular about type of pillow then bring your own.

Review 71:Salman and his friends were very hospitable & helpful, taking care of every detail of our stay. We arrived in unusual weather of cold rain & sandstorm but were given lots of blankets & they had a fire going to keep warm. They kindly provided dinner earlier because of our young children. Sheets & blankets & tent very clean. Bathrooms were new Jan 2015 & good facilities & super clean (toilet paper provided). Candles around camp beautiful at night. Salman gave us a great jeep tour (at the standard price of 2 hrs for 35jd) & even arranged cheap short camel rides for the children. Dinner & breakfast very tasty with lots of mint tea on offer. Dinner was chicken kebsah with 3 different salads for 7jd per adult. I think usually they would cook chicken zerb (in the sand) but didn't because of the weather. The children loved climbing the rocks & sand dunes around the camp the next morning. Stunning scenery. We liked that it was a small camp - only 6 sleeping tents & everyone hosting us were local bedouins.

Review 72:It is also nice that Solomon Zawaida camp preserve the heritage of our ancestors to stay on through the ages for generations to come My name and the name of my family thank Mr. Solomon and the staff to greet the friendly hospitality and encourage everyone to visit Zawaida camp and live the life experience of simplicity

Review 73:One thing we didn't know: you need to park your car at the visitors centre and then people from there will make a phone call and you will be picked up. The camp is not accessible without 4WD. Also you need to pay 5JD entrance fee to the park (per adult). Second thing you might want to know: you can't cook - so expect to pay for dinner (which is not expensive and as said it's great food!). Also you might want to bring extra bed linen. The camp provides you with one bed sheet and a blanket. And you might want to bring a towel. I didn't like the fact that there was quite some broken glass and other rubbish in the sand - but when I talked about this with Salman he immediately got it sorted.

Review 74:We, a family with three kids aged 5, 4 and 2, loved our three nights in this camp. It is basic, no electricity (so bring your camera rather than rely on your phone like I did...), the sleeping arrangements are simple and sufficient and this camp has extremely friendly and helpful staff. We stayed in the bigger family tent, which was great because the kids could play inside one afternoon when there was simply too much dust outside due to unexpected winds. The staff there are great. The guys played with our kids; soccer, climbing the rocks, our youngest was even treated a small camel ride! The camp is situated against amazing rocks and I especially liked the seating area build in the corner of the rocks. The camp is 10 years old and setup by the owner Salman. He is from that area and really respects and looks after his visitors. We had forgotten to ask for dinner, but no problem, he included our family in the dinner arrangements and wow, the food is good!!! Especially the 'mandi - chicken', cooked in the ground. You are offered tea throughout the day and there is always water and coffee available. The kids got given small treats like juices and chips (and even ice cream one afternoon!) Definitely go for an organised desert trip. It was the most amazing thing we've seen (and we have been to many different deserts before!). The guy who took us on a tour was very nice and made us tea in the desert while we stopped for lunch. Yes, we will come back, for sure. The owner, Salman, is a great man and he really wants you to have the best experience as possible.

Review 75:I booked this camp because they mentioned that they provide vegetarian food and when they came to know that we are vegetarian, they immediately arranged the food for us which I have never seen in any other hotel. The staff was very courteous and polite. Though the camp was in the middle of the desert, the location was really good.

Review 76:The 3-hour-tour included in my booking became a 2-hour-tour.Salman, the owner, didn't seem to care about guests during my time there. He spent the whole night "playing" with his phone. Ali isthe only staff member who speak English.

Review 77:Ali, one of the staff members did the impossible to please us guests.Very good dinner and excellent breakfast.The camp is very well located for sunny days (plenty of shade during the evening)

Review 78:Salman, his brothers and his fellow Bedouins made for a memorable stay in the Wadi Rum. They were kind enough to pick us up from the Visitor Center and had a the most savory and delicious chicken dinner awaiting for us when we arrived. We talked into the night about the Bedouin culture over a warm fire and hot tea and easily dozed off underneath the cozy blankets that kept us warm on a cool desert night. Breakfast in the morning was filling and tasty as well. The bathroom with its tile floors and walls was way more than expected in the middle of the desert. The camp also gets a great cell phone signal too. They arranged a fun camel ride in the desert and drove us back to Aqaba with some wonderful suggestions for the rest of our trip in Jordan. You are truly in for a treat if you come stay with Salman at his camp.

Review 79:The tent door was very flimsy and had to be tied with a scarf in order to not open from the wind. The bathroom was not in the best condition and the water was very cold, though that was to be expected.

Review 80:Perfect for people looking for a different camping experience, excellent spots for hiking and sight seeing, and a helpful and friendly staff. Also, good location close to other camp sites and a comparatively cheap price.

Review 81:we came to the Wadi Rum when it was dark. The 2 really nice guys from the staff took us from the road to the desert...they prepared delicious dinner for us, and showed the big tent were we were supposed to sleep... And it has started- one of the most amazing nights in our life... The sound of desert, smell of fire, taste Bedouins food, natural light of big like a billiard balls stars... We were laying next to the fire-bone, listening the stories from Bedouin life, smoking shisha and watching the sky... There was no other place we wanted to be in this moment... Forgetting about the past and the future about problems and dreams. Only we and freedom of desert... The day after the big red sun wake us up - so pity-we had to go... Thank u Bedouin friends - we wish that we could come back to you one day... see you Kasia & Elroi

Review 82:Hosts were a bit talkative, not too bad or anything though.

Review 83:Loved the price and the treatment. Location was good. Was one of the best wadi rum places I've been to.

Review 84:里面的那个司机吃我朋友豆腐....说是让我们冥想,但是他总是去摸我朋友,无语了。

Review 85:you can see the stars clearly at night. Mr. Salman is hospitable and friendly. the bed is acceptable, though it's not very clean and you can feel sand and dirt.(after all this camp is in the desert, it's inconvenient for them to wash them). dinner is good, and Mr. Salman prepared a special dinner for me, because I'm a vegetarian.

Review 86:Salman and staff offer top notch accommodation, tours, gracious environment and consider availing every amenity practically as a gift. Delicious food, reasonable non-luxury warm interior tents, and very knowledgable sightseeing guides.

Review 87:Not really....but the showers and toilets....but we were in the desert...so only to be expected...dont think the toilet had running water..but did not ask them...

Review 88:Very well organised...I booked bed, breakfast and evening meal and a 3 hour safari. We were met at the bus from petra at 8.30am by salman who took us to the Camp...we changed and went off on our Safari,...with lots of stops....back to Camp...spent the afternoon in the desert...had a very tasty dinner....and slept well with 3 thick blankets...we were there in winter (Feburary) and I was very worried I would not sleep..but no worries.

Review 89:Perhaps enhance washroom facilities/update jeep for excursion

Review 90:Excellent staff- went out of their way to make our winter desert experience amazing. Truly beautiful, despite the insanely cold weather/sand storm.

Review 91:I was in the campement with my sister and a friend, we stay only for one day in a tent with three small but comfortable beds. Since the beginning Mr. Salman was very attentive, he collect us at the meeting centre at a time that we choose. Then he and Mr. Ali prepare for us delicious tea and set the fire to make us feel comfortable. They give us excellent advice for schedule different activities, so we could get the best for the short time we stay. I was impressed for the bedouin hospitality, we will certainly be staying here again!

Review 92:The tents have cots - we would have preferred beds on the ground. Some other camps have nicer surroundings to explore if you have free time.

Review 93:Salman Zwaidh camp is good value and you can take camel and jeep tours from there. Careful! there are many locals at the visitor center that want to catch you away from the booked location by telling you lies. Make sure someone official calls your host to pick you up. Only pay the park fee to an official person not anyone else that asks you to pay!

Review 94:Friendliness The food The whole family in one tent Not a full camp Tea by the fire Camelride Free dinner for the children Good value for the money

Review 95:We had the intention to spend the night sleeping outside in the desert. The friendly staff permitted us to do so. Fantastic night with a mind-blowing starry sky and a lot of shooting stars.

Review 96:The guide of the jeeptour didnt speak much english, but he was do friendly and helpfull, we cant say it was a negative experience.

Review 97:Very friendly people, warm welcome, a lot of help, very kind. Arranged everything by phone, they picked us up at the village and made everything very easy. Nice camp, good food, nice atmosphere.

Review 98:I stayed here with a few friends. We had a fantastic evening at the camp, food was plentiful and delicious, they catered very well for vegetarians and constantly supplied us with tea. The hosts were very welcoming and entertaining, cheating and singing by the camp fire. The tent was large and beds comfortable. They organised great excursions the following day! Toilet and shower facilities were as basic as you would expect from the desert.

Review 99:Very good staff, very good tour, very good dinner and breakfast, we enjoy a very excellent stay there. It is close to a perfect sunset view point. And camp provide pick up and send-off to nearby car park.

Review 100:Dinner seemed a bit expensive for Jordan (compared to what we had been having) though the quality of preparations was very good.

Review 101:Good location - avoids direct sun even during daytime Caring staff/admin who make you feel at home. My kid absolutely loved being with them. Though Salman does not know much English, Idroh who supported us was quire fluent. Arranged camel ride and 4x4 tour promptly.

Review 102:The camp was beautiful and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. If you plan on staying in Wadi Rum I highly recommend this place.

Review 103:Excellent position! Staff very kind and helpfull. They arranged a 4hr Jeeptour for us and it's been amazing. Dinner was good.

Review 104:Be prepared for a rustic experience. Apart from the mattress beds. Very Bedouin

Review 105:Sweet tea Cat living around the tent coz he slept with me on bed that make us uncomfortable.

Review 106:Staff Cleanliness of restroom Hot water

Review 107:It is freezing cold sleeping at night.

Review 108:The sight in the desert and the jeep trip are good.

Review 109:Super friendly hosts, family-run, fascinating hearing about Bedouin culture

Review 110:Location, hospitality, excursion

Review 111:Nothing

Review 112:Salman is very friendly and helpfull. The tea is excellent and there is hot water for the shower.
