There were singers and a dancer rotating throughout the night at the outdoor tables. Shisha was extra. Dead sea Keep your head above the water and let the rest of your body just float. It’s a weird sensation Avoid the water if you have open wounds though cause it’ll sting Avoid getting any on your lips cause it’s very salty Petra UNESCO Be warned that there's lots of horse, camel, and donkey poo so watch your step! It can be quite smelly... There's also little shade so dress appropriately; strongly advise to wear a headscarf or buy a hat Little Petra to the Monastery hikeThis was amazing! It was around 4km so bring water and lunch There's a tea shop at the top, which is about halfway Not very crowded since this trial is longer than others High Place of Sacrifice Trail - Steep half hour climb but nice view at the endCamel rides - I don't do these but I was told to not pay over 10 JOD (at the time) Food The Cave Bar - Cute interiorRed Cave - Decent meal but nothing to rave about. Don’t let the guy tell you it’s cash only when the door says “Visa accepted here”Wadi Rum Wadi Rum Bedouin Camp - I was on a tour that did a 2 night campTry to conserve the water as it’s driven in by cars The bathroom was very clean but the shower is cold if you decide to take one Stargazing at night was amazing since there’s no light pollution Wadi Rum Visitor Center - There's practically no reception after this so do any internet related things beforehandMadaba Food Things to do
