The volunteering was nice and easy . I stayed there for 2 weeks and it was interesting and fun experience . There were also other volunteers who helped and with whom I explored the desert.I recommend to anyone who wants to chill, see the desert and be part of bedouin life. Thank you Khaled for the opportunity and good luck to you and your family , see you next time if not as volunteer then as a guest. Greetings from Mahmood :)

I just left the camping and I already miss it. This felt like a once in a lifetime experience and I only hope I can come again to volunteer and change that to “twice+” Khaled is an open, honest, respectful, generous host who treated me like family. I learned so much about desert life from him and his family. The desert is awe-inspiring, and perfect if you like long walks, climbs, and just sitting and thinking - or going on tours/hikes on your days off. Honestly, I felt like I grew as a person here and would recommend this to anyone who sees the Wadi Rum and feels excitement and intrigue. Do it.

Khaled and his family are so welcoming and accommodating. During my time here, my work was straightforward and flexible. The experience isn't about the work though- it's to immerse yourself in the landscapes and the lifestyle, to learn some Arabic phrases, to enjoy tea by the fire every night, to get to know the lovely family that has run this the camping for generations. Khaled's the camping is a special place and I would 10/10 recommend the experience to others. ❤️

I had an incredible time in Wadi Rum , the place is unparalleled. The desert is unique and something you have to see at least once in your life. Our host, Khaled, was super respectful, kind, attentive in every way, and above all fun. He allowed us to immerse ourselves in his culture, with the people of his village, and his beautiful family. It's an experience I 100% recommend, both for the beauty of the place and the kindness and good treatment of Khaled and his family, who truly made us feel at home.

My experience with Khaled was my first time volunteering around the world, and it couldn't have been better. He welcomed us with open arms, shared his culture, introduced us to his family, and always made sure we were feeling good, confortable and had everything we needed. We shared so many laughs, tea (amazing tea), stories, even a tradicional wedding. The peace and calm of the camping is something I will never forget. I really recommend this experience — words can't describe how special it was.
