Why Choose Al Omar Camp
Al Omar Camp is a family run desert camp set in the mountains near Disah, approximately 11 kilometers from the Wadi Rum Visitor Center. Run by Omar and his brother Sohaib, the camp offers six bubble tents with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and heating, giving guests a comfortable base to enjoy the desert landscape and night sky.
Guests consistently highlight the personal attention from Omar and his family. The camp has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where visitors are treated more like friends than customers. Omar personally leads jeep tours to key landmarks and movie filming sites across Wadi Rum, sharing stories about Bedouin culture and local traditions along the way.
Evenings at Al Omar Camp center around the campfire, where Omar and Sohaib share stories about desert life. The traditional zarb dinner, with meat and vegetables slow cooked underground, is a highlight that guests repeatedly mention as one of the best meals of their trip. The mountain setting provides excellent stargazing conditions with minimal light pollution.
