Legacy Tours Camp is a traditional Bedouin camp, nestled deep within the heart of the Wadi Rum Protected Area. It’s located in a privileged spot, perfectly sheltered from noise and completely immersed in desert beauty and peace. It’s a simple and genuine Bedouin camp consisting of only 10 intimate tents of various sizes, featuring shared bathroom facilities and a warm, communal dinner tent.

The camp is also situated near the famous Black Mountain, where you can admire an amazing sunset every single day. For a truly unique experience, we also have secret caves protected from the wind, where you can marvel at the stars in total silence.

When to visit
