Amazing trip! - What a fantastic evening! The initial presentation was fascinating without being too technical. looking through the amazing telescopes was awe-inspiring and we just loved being shown the constellations and planets. It was excellent value for money and I can't recommend this experience enough

Better than you can imagine from any book! - Worth a trip. A highlight of our Jordan holidays. One should get out in a desert, with an astroguide, more often. Would have loved to stay in the Discover Bedu camp for longer.

Must Do in Wadi Rum - Its like a trip in the space. Exceptional experience, if you're in Wadi Rum it's a must do activity. I had my 9 year old son with me, he was amazed with it.

We loved the teachers! And had a really fun night stargazing - We LOVED our evening of stargazing!! You start at 8:30, and end around 10pm Try to go when there is no moon.. and no clouds (we went when it was a half moon, and still saw a lot. Thankfully there were no clouds) The team here is 11/10 fantastic!!!! The main teacher (Farkh) is SO fun! He is very knowledgeable and engaging I went with my three year old son- and he really enjoyed the whole night! The telescopes are beautiful PS- my email for the 10 December 2024 picture is [email protected]

Magical Experience With Laughs Included - One of the things my niece and I were most looking forward to in Waidi Rum was star gazing, which is why we leapt at the chance to do it through a couple of powerful telescopes. We had a night of entertaining education as a bonus. The group of young people who run this experience are fun and knowledgable and it was a true highlight of our stay.

Great informative and fun night under the stars - Our tour was well run . The guides were fun and engaging . We learnt a lot about the galaxy, how small planet earth really is ( in comparison) and got to see planets , stars and the moon surface . Although it was a full moon with less stars visible that night , just learning about some of the constellations in the northern sky was terrfic(we are Australian and have southern constellations ) thanks RumSky fr a wonderful and informative evening.

Cheerful and informative - Very interesting evening led by a cheerful photographer astronomer. We were picked up in our camp/stay with a 4x4, followed by an informative 'lecture' of about 20 minutes that was suitable for all ages (in English and Arabic). After this we continued our way out for a 2nd informative session. As a 3rd part we were allowed to look through different telescopes that were set up on different planets and stars (galaxies). In short: very cozy, cheerful and informative!

Great time looking at the stars! - We really enjoyed this. The astronomers were extremely knowledgeable, funny, engaging and spoke English. They have 4 permanent high powered telescopes set up and the hour flew by since it was so interesting. The only thing I can add is...bring a jacket! It gets cold!
