The red sands of the Wadi Rum desert are otherworldly. It looks like the surface of another planet – many sci-fi movies have been filmed here for that very reason. It’s also known as the Valley of the Moon. In Wadi Rum, you can visit the ancient desert city of Petra. You can see Wadi Rum as part of your Jordan itinerary. You can also combine it with a trip to Israel. It’s just a short trip across the border.
If you intend to explore Wadi Rum in style, then you must stay at the Wadi Rum Night Luxury Camp. It consists of twenty-five Bedouin tents with king-size beds and hand-made furniture. You’ll be “glamping” in the Jordanian desert in the utmost style. The tents are powered by solar energy in the evenings. All of the tents come with private terraces where you can enjoy sweeping views of the mountains. This is a major bucket list experience.

LGBTQ+ rights in Jordan are limited, and individuals face both social and legal challenges. While homosexuality is not explicitly criminalized, there are no specific protections against discrimination or hate crimes based on sexual orientation or gender identity. This legal gap leaves LGBTQ+ individuals vulnerable in a society where conservative norms dominate.
Same-sex marriage is not recognized, and public displays of affection between same-sex couples can result in legal scrutiny or public backlash. The stigma surrounding LGBTQ+ identities often leads individuals to conceal their sexual orientation or gender identity, particularly in rural or traditional areas. In urban centers like Amman, there is slightly more privacy and tolerance, but open expression of LGBTQ+ identity remains rare.
Advocacy groups working to promote LGBTQ+ rights exist in Jordan but operate within strict limitations, reflecting the broader societal and governmental constraints on activism. Public events or campaigns focused on LGBTQ+ issues are rare, as they risk backlash or closure.
For LGBTQ+ travelers, discretion is advised. While Jordan’s historic sites and natural beauty make it a popular destination, understanding the cultural context and adhering to local norms is essential for a safe and respectful visit. Despite the challenges, there are small but resilient LGBTQ+ networks and communities striving for greater visibility and acceptance within Jordan’s conservative framework.

Further Information
You can set out on a desert safari in a 4×4. Only Bedouins are licensed to drive in Wadi Rum, so you’ll benefit from the insights of an expert local guide. You’ll get the chance to take photos of the amazing landscapes and see the sunset over the desert. Some of these landscapes may look familiar: iconic scenes from Lawrence of Arabia and Prometheus were filmed here. Wadi Rum roughly translates to “valley of sand.” The drive from Amman to Wadi Rum takes roughly two-hours.
