Welcome! I’m Awad Zalabiah, a proud Bedouin guide born and raised in the breathtaking Wadi Rum desert, where my family has lived for countless generations. The desert is not just my home—it’s my way of life. From a young age, I roamed its vast stretches of golden sands, climbed its towering red cliffs, and discovered its hidden valleys and caves. I know every trail, every rock formation, and every story passed down through the ages. Wadi Rum is in my blood, and it’s an honor for me to share its beauty and secrets with travelers like you.
As your guide, I offer more than just a tour. I offer an authentic experience rooted in the ancient traditions and deep knowledge of my people. Whether you’re seeking an exhilarating jeep ride through the open desert, a peaceful camel trek under the endless sky, or a night under the stars in a tent near the fire, I can tailor the perfect journey for you. My deep understanding of the land allows me to take you to places most tourists never see—hidden gems, quiet oases, and stunning viewpoints that reveal the true magic of Wadi Rum.
I also love sharing the rich culture of the Bedouins. During our journey, I’ll tell you stories passed down through generations, introduce you to the Bedouin way of life, and share our deep connection to the land. From the ancient petroglyphs etched into rock faces to the wildlife that thrives in this harsh environment, there is so much to discover here beyond what meets the eye.
Whether you’re a solo traveler looking for adventure, a couple seeking a romantic desert escape, or a family wanting to connect with nature, I’ll work with you to create an unforgettable experience. The desert has its own rhythm and soul, and my goal is to help you connect with it in a way that resonates with your heart.
Join me for a journey that goes beyond the ordinary. Let me show you the Wadi Rum that I know and love, with its stunning landscapes, deep history, and the timeless spirit of the Bedouin people. Together, we’ll create memories that will stay with you long after the desert sands have faded from your shoes. I look forward to welcoming you to my home and sharing the adventure of a lifetime!
