Jamal

The Jamal Rum Camp was located deep into Wadi Rum. They shuttled me from parking to the camp. WiFi was great in the lobby are and sometimes reached the room. They setup my tour in the morning and everything was great. Jamal was very helpful and welcoming at the place

Passez votre chemin

Le camp était sale, les poubelles remplies, il y avait des gobelets qui traînent (laissés la veille au soir), les déchets sont brûlés devant nous le matin. Il y a une salle de dîner/petit-déjeuner/repos qui est fermée en journée donc les seuls endroits où l’on peut se reposer sont la chambre ou les espaces de détente extérieurs occupés par le personnel. Au moment de partir, on nous a facturé le prix du repas du soir alors que ce n’était mentionné nulle part. La chambre n’était pas propre et le petit-déjeuner préparé avec les restes du dîner de la veille.

Communication mauvaise avec l’équipe, équipements qui ne sont pas à la hauteur des prix pratiqués et propreté qui laisse à désirer. Les draps sont sales, et les vitres de la bulle ne permettent même pas de distinguer les étoiles dans le ciel, un comble pour une telle expérience. Coupures d’électricité multiples, une de nos bulles n’avait pas de climatisation et les 2 autres en avaient une mais on ne pouvait pas la régler. Plus d’électricité après 2h du matin donc une chaleur s’est imposée dans les chambres et rendu le sommeil difficile… De plus, ils veulent vendre de force un circuit en Jeep dans le désert à 25 dinars avec le repas et si vous refusez, vous devrez payer 20 dinars l’aller et 20 dinars le retour ainsi que 10 dinars le repas… À savoir quand vous réservez. Le dîner, bien que simple, paraissait de bonne facture mais 4 personnes sur 5 de notre groupe sont tombés malades le lendemain. Clin d’œil au petit Talal qui nous remontait le moral.

Jamal and his team were extremely nice. They made us feel at home. Dinner was delicious. They also had jeep activity and camel activity. The bed and pillows need a little more love but besides that it was a very pleasant stay.

Not clean , no electricity after 1 am even in bathroom also we request dinner on phone and when we arrive the cost was too much and dinner not enough for me and colleagues. My suggestion is end contract with this camp cause will affect negative for client satisfaction.

What an experience! Bedouin tent. Dinner is a Bedouin Zarb chicken meal, cooked buried under ground - very tasty, served buffet style, so all you want. The 4x4 excursion into the desert is very fun. The camel ride is excellent. Singing and dancing around the fire pit (this may have been a spontaneous event one of the nights I was there). The stars are amazing. Jamal and his assistants are great.

The people here are very nice, but the facility is so so. We had the most expensive dome tent with AC which is great, but nothing else is provided inside besides the red and blue towels which you don’t want to touch, the color will be all over your skin, so we have to get air dry after shower. The Jeep tour is great, strongly recommended. The sunrise camel ride was not so great, the person can’t control his camels well, and led us to wrong spot for sunrise, we have to walk to find the right spot to see the sun. Again, we loved people there.

Einfache Unterkunft in traumhafter Wüstenkulisse. Positiv war dass ein eigenes Bad und Toilette vorhanden war. Wir hatten ein 5-Bett Zelt gebucht, allerdings nur ein 3 Bett Zelt erhalten. Die Gastfreundschaft wirkte auf uns jedoch zu übertrieben und aufgesetzt. Dass mir Jamals Bruder einfach in die Haare gefasst hat weil er sie angeblich schön fand empfand ich als absolutes No-Go.

Wadi Rum experience

A truly fantastic experience. Jamal, his 5 brothers and their dad made sure we had an unforgettable trip to Wadi Rum. Things are quite basic but considering you are in the middle of the desert it is fantastic. We had our own hut. The place was clean and the bed was great. Wi-fi is sketchy so we had some time off from the internet and instead enjoyed the breathtaking views. Food is good and plentiful. We recommend taking the full day 4WD tour of Wadi Rum with the dad. He is a great guy and he showed us pretty much everything. Highly recommended.
