Many travellers have asked if we run our tours in the summer months and the answer is, yes, we run all trips all year round. You may be surprised to find just how comfortable it is in Wadi Rum exploring shady canyons or simply lazing in the shade of an overhanging rock. The trick to staying cool is: Seize the day! Start early. Take a snooze or catch up on some reading in the shade in the hot afternoon and make the most of those balmy evenings either side of sunset and under the myriad of stars at night.

Do wear a hat or scarf - Scarves can be purchased from the many Bedouin tents if you have forgotten. Just ask!

Do stay hydrated - we always carry water for you! Remember there is always Bedouin tea available in a moment’s notice.

Do wet a scarf to wear aorund your neck or head while on the moving jeep - just don’t put the water on your skin or hair directly!

Do wrap a wet scarf around your water bottle and dangle over the edge of the moving jeep - make sure you hold onto it though!

Do cover your arms and legs in direct sunlight - layer up and off as needed throughout your trip.

Do wear sunscreen. Some shops in the village will have a limited selection but they do NOT stock ‘Aftersun’.

Do expect to go-slow. It is possible to do everything you want; just check your pace.

Do travel by jeep or camel if unsure about hiking in hot weather, let them do the work for you!

Do try bivouac camping if your budget will allow…it is magical and August is good for shooting stars.

If you are still not convinced…..perhaps try a half day tour instead.

We look forward to hearing from you.
