Car Rental in Wadi Rum: Desert Adventure Awaits

Wadi Rum, the Valley of the Moon, is a must-visit destination in Jordan. While the deep desert is explored in specialized 4x4s with local guides, reaching the Visitor Center requires a rental car to enjoy full flexibility on your trip.

Reaching Wadi Rum by Car

Wadi Rum is about 1 hour from Aqaba and 3.5 hours from Amman. The Desert Highway is well-paved and easy to drive until you reach the protected area entrance.

Recommended Vehicle Type for Wadi Rum

We highly recommend renting an SUV for comfort and safety during the long drive, especially if you have plenty of luggage for overnight camping.

Parking & Security

Secure and free parking is available at the Wadi Rum Visitor Center and in Rum Village, where you can safely leave your rental car before starting your desert safari.

Travel Tips

  • Download offline maps as signal can be weak in some areas.
  • Refuel in Quweira or Aqaba before entering the Wadi Rum area.
