Wadi Rum, Jordan | Memories Aicha Luxury Camp

While we were visiting Petra, I made spontaneous plans for us to also stay a couple nights in Wadi Rum – I mean we made it all the way here right?! It was about a 2 hour drive from Petra and just like that.. it’s like we were transported to Mars! Red sand, massive rock formations.. and just HUGE!

Dubai 2022 Travelgram
