I find it interesting how people can stay at the same place and have such different accounts of their experience! I just read through some of the accounts of travelers' experiences with the 7 pillars camp and was surprised by some of the negative comments. Perhaps it depends on who you get when you go into camp and what your... More

We were recommended 7 pillars camp from our driver in our hotel in Amman who was pretty good on our tours. I did a quick web review search and it seemed good so let the driver arrange it (and obviously earn his commission). We were picked up on time, not by Audeh as we were expecting but by his cousin....

Audeh and his brother were fantastic hosts. We arrived in Wadi Rum and Audeh (owner of the desert camp) invited us to his house for a tea and a 30 min chat.

Whilst other tour operators at the visitor centre flocked to tell us what trip they wanted us to do, Audeh listened to what... More

I just came back from a day's camping at the Seven Pillars Camp in Wadi Rum and am compelled to write a review! Audeh Krayem is the owner of this camp and his father is the chief of Rum Village (that probably tells you you'd be in good hands already!). My travel buddy and I, both young female travellers, were... More
