teralin Posted January 27, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 27, 2019 We are stopping in Aqaba for the day on Spectrum of the Seas and are considering taking the ship's 5 hour tour to Wadi Rum. It's not clear from the description whether we just go there, eat at the touristy Beduoin camp and then return to the ship or, as other tours do, allow us time to take the 4x4 tour around Wadi Rum to see the sights. Has anyone ever been on the Royal Caribbean tour and can offer their experiences good or bad? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unibok Posted January 28, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Good question. You will likely get more (and better) responses if you post it to the Africa and Middle East board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bull Posted January 28, 2019 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I think there's very little doubt that RCIs excursion follows the same pattern as the others. Coaches can only go as far as the "visitor centre", which is little more than a rest break where you are off-loaded from laarge coaches and a few minutes later you board 4x4 vehicles (6 to 8 in the open back of each truck plus seat alongside the driver), to drive across the desert to and beyond Lawrence of Arabia's Seven Pillars of Wisdom. The Bedouin camp is several miles from even a dirt road, totally inaccessible to buses. a very good half-day excursion JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
