Glamping in Jordan has become one of the hippest things to do. But to tell you the truth there are some real stinkers out there and it’s also not that easy to get an overview of the best luxury desert camps in Morocco. With this list you’ll be all set to have an incredible experience!

Watch the sunset from one of the nearby dunes, go on an exploration tour of the desert and sleep underneath a sky full of stars. Wadi Rum is one of the most beautiful places in Jordan and will have you in complete and utter awe as soon as you arrive.

It’s not possible to drive within Wadi Rum yourself, there is no actual road and you would get lost pretty much immediately. Instead all you have to do is park your car at the visitor’s centre and someone from your hotel will come and pick you up!

Expect the same amenities and facilities as you would have in a top-class hotel.

Each tent is decorated with plush furnishings and a colour-scheme of yellows, oranges and reds inspired by the colorful sands of the desert.

Enjoy air-conditioning throughout the tent as well as showers. In addition to the elegant sleeping area, some tents also have dining and lounge spaces that are perfect for families.
