Khaled's Camp is located 7.5 mi from Rum Village and is tucked inside one of Wadi Rum protected areas. It is within close proximity to hiking, trekking and climbing sites as well as the wilderness zone for those visitors wanting to experience greater tranquility and solitude. Nearby is the newly installed telescope at the observation point. A five minute walk will have you gazing at a million stars. The private camp features washroom facilities. Mattresses and blankets are provided. Various styles of sleeping accommodations like the iconic Bedouin tent known as bait al shaar or “house of hair” because of the goat hair used in its production. There are private tents which can accommodate up to 6 people. In addition, we offer family tents that cater to the needs of families or larger groups. For the more adventurous guests, the property offers sand dune accommodations. Sleeping under the stars is an amazing way to experience the desert. Guests can enjoy the “private cave” if they are wishing for greater seclusion. There is a special play area for children where they can play on the sand dune or climb the small hill located close to the camp. The nearest airport is King Hussein International Airport, 25 mi from Khaled's Camp.

Company info

My personal favorite thing about Wadi Rum? The peace and quiet you can find nowhere else! There's nothing better than spending the night under the stars and having the feeling that you're the only one here. Of course I do not do this alone. I employ a number of local clansmen to help us operate our camp and our many tours. We are dedicated to sharing the knowledge passed on to us from our elders and that we have garnered over the years with the next generation. It is in this way that our traditions and a high quality of tourism will be carried on.

Property info

I started Khaled's camp when I was around 12 years old by putting mattresses on the floor around a fire. Now, our camp is situated 12 km from Rum Village, tucked inside one of Wadi Rum's Protected Area with the most beautiful sunset and sunrise locations. It is a quiet setting but still within close proximity to excellent hiking, trekking and climbing sites as well as the Wilderness Zone for those visitors wanting to experience greater tranquility and solitude. We are also located near the newly installed telescope at the observation point that you can reach with a five minute walk. Get ready to gaze at a million stars !
