+Meeting Ali was one of the highlights of my trip. From the very beginning, he treated me like a brother rather than just a guest. His kindness, generosity, and genuine care made my experience in Wadi Rum truly unforgettable. Ali went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying every moment. He shared stories, helped me whenever I needed anything, and made me feel completely at home in the desert. What impressed me most was his warm hospitality and the way he welcomed me into his world. Exploring the incredible landscapes of Wadi Rum with him felt more like spending time with family than taking a tour. If you are visiting Wadi Rum, I highly recommend meeting Ali. He is an amazing person with a big heart, and thanks to him, my experience was much more special than I could have imagined. Thank you, my brother, for the memories and hospitality. I hope to see you again someday

“A True Bedouin Experience! Wish I stayed longer”
+Wow what an incredible stay I was blown away! Ali is an incredible host and I had such a comfortable stay. You really get to experience an authentic bedouin lifestyle. The room was very clean and had everything I needed. The tent outside was a nice space to hangout in too. The included breakfast was so great. fresh bread and a variety of local foods, including olive oil stright from their trees in front, and the tea was so delicous. Its in a smalll local village, and you can walk right into the desert (although its enormous). Ali was able to arrange tours at a really good price, and could add home cooked meals, evenings by the fire. You dont just book a place to sleep, its an entire experience. Highly reccomend coming to Wadi Rum and styaing here, you're away from all the tourist trap stuff and prices, and get treated so well
−nothing, everything was so wonderful

“A wonderful beduin experience”
+This staying was the best out of all we stayed during our Jordan trip. We highly recommend to book it. The room and other house spaces where clean. The place was warm even there is no heating. Plugs need an adapter if you coming from Europe. The view from terrace is perfect: desert everywhere even you are not directly inside it you feel like you are there. Dinner and breakfast consist of authentic traditional food. It was so delicious. The communication with Ali (WhatsApp) upon arrival was amazing, we negotiate everything in advance: tour through Wadi Rum, food ect. Ali gave us also tips when we were planning our Jordan trip. We would like to thank Ali and his family once again for giving us an unforgettable beduin experience. We greatly appreciated his hospitality. Having tea, listening to traditional music, and talking over dinner was amazing. Our thanks goes to his brother for desert tour. Moreover, our thanks goes to his other brother for showing us their animals.

“This was the best place we visited in Jordan! Friendly people, real bedouin experience!”
+We had REAL bedouin experiences! The host Ali brought us to the desert on his jeep, also gave us a great dinner for a very good price, and spent with us a lot of time. He was so friendly, cheering and entertaining us! We loved him and also his friendly family. The breakfast was also very good, included in the price. And the camel ride was so good, not expensive.

“Exceptional”
+Ali is a great host! We stayed at the house that was more than enough for the 2 of us. But we spent most of the time in Ali's tent, where we also had the meals. Ali's mum is a great cook and we loved the food. Ali offers all kind of tours (jeep, camel, etc) and he doesn't force you to take any. I really recommend doing one because price is more affordable that the one group tours and you basically go on a private tour. You can also room around the property, feed the camels and help in other chores. Ali has a good heart and also hosts people through couch surfing. We really enjoyed this peaceful and authentic experience.
−There was a couchsurfer staying there at the same time and asked Ali if he could join our jeep tour and Ali said he would have to ask us. We said yes he could join but it would have been nice if he would have offered to contribute a bit. Ali was very very considerate, he was all the time trying to move away the couchsurfer from the jeep open part where we were, to the co-pilot spot. We could see Ali was trying to make the presence of the couchsurfer smoother and we had the feeling that Ali was more stressed about the presence of the couchsurfer than we were. So one note to others travelers (not to Ali at all!): if you are a couchsurfer I understand you may be on a budget (we also couchsurf sometimes) but if you join somebody's tour that they are paying for and you are not maybe offer to contribute a bit and also think about your host, you should not put them in a hard position.

“Nice stay at the Wadi Rum desert with a genuine Bedouin”
+To clarify: I am rating here the stay at the desert in a tent with my host, Ali. The story: upon arriving at my accommodation in Wadi Rum, I asked my host if he knew about tours to the desert, camel ride, etc. And (of course), he happened to offer all of these. So, I bought the pack of camel ride, jeep tour through the Wadi Rum desert and a night in the desert, bedouin dinner and breakfast included. It was a very nice experience. Ali is a good host and cook, and, as a real Bedouin, he can tell you all about the desert, while showing you bedouin games and taking care of the fire. A very enjoyable and recommendable experience.
−This is a heads-up for the future clients of Ali, rather than things that I did not like: Do not expect an hotel style comfort. You will be spending the night in a tent on the dessert sand, besides a rock hill. The setup is very simple, but works OK (just a bit hard). If you have concerns about food cooked on the spot (cleanliness or others), then talk to Ali before starting the adventure and ask him to explain all in detail. For me all was very enjoyable. Just one minor, easy to fix, thing to recommend to Ali: don't let your alarm run unattended for one hour at 5:00 AM
