Food

Whilst trekking all meals are included. The 3 nights spent in hotels is on a
bed and breakfast basis. You will be required to buy 2 lunches on days 2 and
7 and dinners on day 1 (depending on flight arrival time), 6 and 7. Allow
about US$90 or 64JOD to cover these meals. We usually eat in restaurants
where traditional food is served to allow maximum flexibility of choice, and,
for those who wish, to try a 'mezze' style meal. If you are vegetarian,
please note that main meals are limited in choice, however, mezze is almost
always available in restaurants and is a good choice for vegetarians, usually
costing approximately 15JOD or US$21 pp. Unlimited drinking water is provided
free of charge whilst on the trek in Wadi Rum.

Accommodation

On this adventurous walking trip in Jordan, we spend two nights in a hotel in Amman, one night in a Bedouin camp near Little Petra, one night at a private permanent camp in Wadi Rum and three nights wild camping.



Amman: Larsa Hotel (nights 1 and 7) 







Our first and final accommodation is usually the Larsa Hotel, around a 30-minute drive from Queen Alia International Airport. Locally rated as a three-star, it has some welcome amenities, including an outdoor swimming pool, sauna and hot tub. There’s also a restaurant, where we eat breakfast, plus a bar.



Wadi Rum: Private Bedouin camp (night 2) 



Used exclusively by our groups, this permanent Bedouin camp in Wadi Rum is a highlight for many travellers. We sleep in simple, traditional tents sheltered by rugged stone cliffs and enjoy the warm hospitality of our Bedouin hosts. The tents are equipped with basic beds, sheets and blankets and the site has plumbed toilets and basins, and simple shower facilities with (limited) hot water. In the evening, they serve us a zarb dinner, cooked underground in the traditional manner, while the rest of the night is typically spent around the campfire, chatting and sharing an unforgettable experience. 



Wild camping (nights 3-5)



For our three nights camping in the wild, we sleep in simple dome tents. There are no toilets or wash facilities – this is the wild after all – but we do provide mattresses to sleep on (about 4in/10cm thick). To make things a little easier, our camping equipment is transported to the sites for us, meaning we don’t have to carry it.



Near Little Petra: Ammarin Bedouin Camp (night 6)







Our last camping night is spent at Ammarin Bedouin Camp near Little Petra, which sits at the foot of a protective rock wall. It is not exclusive to Exodus, so there are likely to be other guests in addition to our group, but the site does have shared shower and toilet facilities – a luxury after our last three nights in the wild! The site is run by members of the local Bedouin Ammarin people, a community traditionally comprised of camel and goat herders.
