Wadi Rum Mountain Hike & Climb: Burdah, with a bridge at the top! + tour & Lunch

Wadi Rum Village - We will meet at the Rest House in Wadi Rum Village between 09:30 – 10:00. This is the first place you will see on your right, when you enter the village. There is a supermarket and a souvenir shop and our office is just around the corner. When all tourists are present and welcomed by the guide, we start the tour (around 10:00)

Hiking Burdah Rock Bridge - Hiking and climbing the Burdah mountain together with your experienced Bedouin guide, who can tell you many stories about the area, the Bedouin life and the various plants and flowers you will see along the way. The duration depends on your pace, but usually takes about 2 to 3 hours. At the top we take our time to relax, take pictures, enjoy the view and drink some fresh Bedouin tea.

Traditional Bedouin Lunch - After the hike your guide prepares a delicious traditional lunch, cooked outside on the fire. The lunch we make is different every day, but we like to cook you a warm meal with vegetables, bread, hummus, yoghurt, and other local treats. While we are cooking, you can explore the area with a hike, or just sit down and relax while you enjoy Wadi Rum's panoramic landscape.

Umm Fruth Rock Bridge - Next to the Burdah Bridge, this 15-meter-high bridge is one of the most famous bridges in Wadi Rum. Of course, the is not as challenging and impressive as the Burdah Hike, but it is a famous sight and still a fun adventure and a great place for pictures. Give your phone or camera to your guide who will stay on the ground and take an impressive photo of you on top of the bridge. The locals run up and down the bridge with ease, but for tourists it is a bit more challenging. That is why small holes have been made which makes the climb a bit easier.

Abu Khashaba Canyon - Stretch your legs and enjoy a nice walk in this deep narrow valley, surrounded by tall mountain walls. There’s a lot of green, which makes a beautiful contrast with the red desert sand. You will see many different types of trees and plants, and hear countless birds chirping. The locals have hung bottles to collect the rainwater so that the birds can drink from it. It is a real oasis of peace. The walk takes 30 to 45 minutes, and your guide will pick you up on the other side.

Little Bridge - Through years of various severe weather influences, this natural Little Bridge has been formed on a rock formation in the Khor El Ajram area. It is called Little Bridge because it’s only a few meters high and easy to climb, but the views are stunning and on pictures it looks pretty big and impressive. When you come down again, a cup of sweet tea awaits you in the Bedouin tent where you can buy souvenirs or relax and hang out with locals.

White Desert - The white desert is totally different from the Red Desert. The white desert is further into the desert in a remote area, with less tourists. The views are impressive, and you will see different colors and rock formations like the Mushroom Rock or Chicken Rock

Jeep Tour - The time we have left before sunset, we spend sightseeing, visiting the highlights of Wadi Rum

Um Sabatah Sunset Viewpoint - Wadi Rum is known for having the most breathtaking sunsets. And we know the best places to watch it! We will take you to a secluded area where you can overlook the wide panoramic landscape as the sun sets, while we prepare some sweet Bedouin tea on the fire. Just sit on the mattrass or in the sand and take in all the beauty you see around you.
