Jordan | Part 3 | Wadi Rum desert

By: Evgeny Padezhnov

Jordan | Part 3 | Wadi Rum desert
We leave Petra and drive to the Wadi Rum desert. Hotel booked in advance Warm bubbles Wadi Rum, we were met at the entrance by a hotel representative and taken to the base camp, where we parked our car, then all movements were only on a 4x4 SUV.

We took a 4-hour tour right from the hotel for 40 JOD per person (below is the full price list for the tour), we were promised to show all the sights of the 6-hour tour for the price of 4. In general, 4 hours is more than enough, because more, I think, will already be uncomfortable and monotonous.

We visited the approximate filming location of the film The Martian with Matt Damon in the title role. We walked along the Umm Frouth Bridge, the ascent and descent is a separate exciting story. We drank local tea in Bedouin tents during the rest. Ride with the breeze overtaking other SUVs with tourists. And in the end, we looked at the incredible sunset in the desert.
