We had the most incredible time in Wadi Rum thanks to Bedouin Whispers! We spent hours looking through reviews of camps with no idea how to choose. We knew we wanted a small camp with reputable guides, no surprise add-on costs, and an "off the grid" experience. (We were especially wary of staying at one of the more "commercialized" camps with swimming pools, excessive lighting, or noisy generators.) Bedouin Whispers turned out to be exactly what we were searching for, and exceeded our wildest expectations! Aodeh was incredibly helpful and responsive over WhatsApp and helped accommodate us even with a short-notice change in our arrival date/time. He met us at the visitors' parking in the village and took us to the camp where we had the chance to watch the sunset from a beautiful ridge overlooking the camp. Bedouin Whispers is very deep into the valley and Aodeh has made a point of eliminating unnecessary lights and sources of noise, so the experience when night falls is profound. The stargazing was out of this world, and we had the opportunity to sleep under the stars (though we ended up sleeping in the tent because the bed was so comfortable)! The next day we did a driving tour with Auodeh's brother Dakhilallah to see some of the "off the beaten path" sites in the Rum. There were many opportunities to take our time enjoying the great vistas. Dakhilallah was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about the area and kind enough to answer our many questions about contemporary Bedouin life. We would stay again in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly reccomend Bedouin Whispers to anyone who wants to experience the solitude and wonder of the desert.
