“We welcome you to the Bedouin experience at Wadi Rum Desert Magic, a place where you can enjoy the desert
- its silence, sunrises and sunsets, the night sky, the open view and time standing still.”
Mohammed al-Zawaidah
- Owner of the Desert Magic Camp
Wadi Rum fascinates travelers with its majestic beauty and vibrant colors. The desert is beautifully colored in red - from a bright terracotta to deep orange and rich burgundy. The rocky landscape owes its variety of colors to the red sandstone and gray granite.
The Wadi Rum Protected Area is so unique that it has been a UNESCO World Heritage property for more than a decade now. Not only because of its rich history, which can be traced back to prehistoric times. Drawings from this time cover the rock walls of the desert landscape and contribute to the fascination of Wadi Rum. The entire protected area measures 740 km² (comparable to the area of New York City) and is inhabited by several hundred Bedouins.
At the Desert Magic Camp & Resort, we offer you different ways of exploring the desert. From camping to camel riding, half-day and full-day jeep tours and hiking with Bedouins, our resort has been set up in the Wadi Rum Protected Area in 2019 and welcomes you for a private Bedouin desert experience. You will find the privacy of only 17 suites and studios, each with its private bathroom and terrace and including a panoramic view, allowing you to watch the day unfold and the stars during the night from the coziness of your bed, letting the Milky Way gently soothe you to sleep.
Located in the middle of the desert, surrounded by beautiful rocky mountains which you can discover by climbing during sunrise and sunset as our camp allows for the most beautiful views the desert has to offer.
Above expectations. Muhammad, the owner, provided great services. He got me an early date to see the train ride from the Jordan Pass. He made sure everyone is happy. The vibe at the camp was great. I would book with him directly next time to get a better deal.
Cute service, clean room, correct prices, tasteful dinner and lunch. Plus point that they made me vegetarian food seperately. The programs are awesome, the camp’s vibe is calm and relaxing. I highly recommend it!
You can’t really put into words how special Mohammed’s camp is in Wadi Rum - you just have to go there and experience it. Be careful though, you might be tempted to stay ;)
The team are beautiful, warm people who are open minded and have a special calmness which puts guest at complete ease from the moment they arrive. We shared wonderful moments with all of them, whether it was a chat in the morning or through the activities offered - jeep tours, stargazing and camel rides.
Food amazing, they even show you a traditional cooking method called “zarb”. Then the camp itself maintains the “bedouin” vibe, with areas to lounge around and relax. The place has true character.
Thanks Desert Magic for all of the memories and for making our trip truly unforgettable.
We hope we will be back, this time with friends and family, to rent the whole camp and stay with you once more, inshallah!
Seriously stop looking for an other camp!! This is it. The stay was absolutely amazing. First of all, it is way off the main road, so properly located in wadi rum. Secondly the staff are brilliant, they make you feel at home, they offer fantastic food, Shisha, making good jokes, water and tea for free and all kinds of different tours. Thirdly the spot is legendary. Imagine if you book a 4x4 tour and you go to the spot to watch the sunset (like all the tours go to the same spot) the camp is right in front of this spot 😁
Highlights:
- room: decent with near washrooms. Best part was the shaded sit out which nearly no other camp stay offered.
- location: contact the staff before hand and they would pick you from the drop off point in their 4x4 vehicle since taxis don't drive in sand. Well located with good water supply etc
- safari- not including stay but our stay was perfect becayse of the 6 hour safari we took
- dinner buffet- they demonstrate the underground oven cooking of chicken and serve a nice buffet . Chargeble but worth the money since theres no point eating out ( youre in a desert)
Staff- the manager at reception, head chef, chief who took us for safari all are part of the memories we made in wadi rum. We probably wouldn't have had a better stay if not for this place !

What an incredible experience at an incredible camp. The camp was clean and our tents were so cozy and the heater kept us nice and warm in December. The staff was super friendly. The setup is fantastic with many places to lounge and relax at the campsite. We took advantage of some of the activities they offer, 4hr jeep tour, stargazing and morning camel ride. The food the served was delicious breakfast lunch and dinner!
