Payment

No deposit is needed when booking and there is no charge for cancellations. We are trying out an online security deposit payment via the booking form. This is a voluntary deposit, and is for people who would like to pay a deposit to book.

We can only accept cash payment in JD (Jordanian Dinar) before you leave at the end of your tour. But with prior agreement we can sometimes accept other currencies (EUROS or US Dollars). Please  note, there are no ATMs in Rum village and no facility to take credit card or visa payments so you must bring cash JD with you.

All Guests: PLEASE NOTE **

Please don’t listen to the people who are waiting outside the Visitor Center building as they spend the whole day waiting to ‘catch’ tourists and they will lie with you quite happily and tell you they are me or work for me! They can be convincing but don’t believe them. I will not wait for you there, and a guide that works for me will not wait for you there. We will wait in the village. Also don’t give them the money for your ticket as they will keep it & not give it to the Visitor Center. You can simply walk to the Visitor Center Office without talking to them, buy your ticket and then continue to the village in your car to wadi rum village where we are waiting for you.

Where to Meet Us

Buy your ticket to enter the protected area, 5 JD, from the Wadi Rum Visitor Center (this entrance fee is free if you have the Jordan Pass) and afterwards drive 6 km to Wadi Rum village and we will meet you at the Gest house in Rum village.
If you do not have a car or you come by bus or taxi, let us know and we will meet you at the resthouse in Rum village.
