Opening times, essentials, and a few local tips gathered into one calmer, easier-to-scan planning section.
Walking
If you are in Wadi Rum village, start by heading towards the main road leading out of the village. Follow the signs towards Aqaba. Continue walking until you reach the junction for the road to Aqaba and take a left. This road leads straight to the city of Aqaba, which is approximately 35 kilometers away. It's advisable to walk early in the morning or later in the afternoon to avoid the heat.
Shared Taxi
From Wadi Rum village, you can take a shared taxi (known locally as a 'service taxi') to Aqaba. Head to the main square in Wadi Rum village where you can find shared taxis waiting for passengers. The fare is relatively inexpensive, and the trip to Aqaba usually takes about 30 to 40 minutes. Make sure to tell the driver you want to go to 'Al, Ennab St' in Aqaba when you get in.
Horse or Camel Ride
For a more adventurous option, consider booking a guided horse or camel ride from your accommodation in Wadi Rum to the outskirts of Aqaba. Arrange this through your local guide or accommodation. They will provide the necessary transport and guide you through the stunning desert landscape. This option can take several hours, so ensure you are prepared with water and snacks.
