  Description

  I am the owner of Bedouin camp in Wadi Rum which is located inside the protected area, about 10km away from Rum village, between a dramatic rock face and a sand dune.
  We have tents of different sizes with everything needed for comfort: beds, mattresses, blankets and pillows. Also we have bathrooms with showers and flush toilets.
  Activities we offer are jeep tours, camel rides, rock scrambling and hiking.

  What else ...

  You will need written and spoken English skills and be good at using a computer. Other languages are a bonus.
  
  You will usually required to work around 4 hours a day, although some days are quieter than others.
  
  I prefer someone to stay a minimum of 2 weeks in order to get the most out of the experience.
  
  Only males or couples.
  
  I really do hope you will come and be part of the camp and experience what an amzing way of life it is here. It is pretty hard to describe what it is like in Wadi Rum, so I hope you will come and see for yourself!
