Star Wars 2020: The Rise of Skywalker

Star Wars 2020: The Rise of Skywalker

The film ‘Star Wars: Rogue One’ featured Wadi Rum in Jordan (AKA “Valley of the Moon”) as the fictional moon of Jedha.

Jedha is a small desert moon located in the Jedha system of the galaxy’s Mid Rim. It is considered as the spiritual home of the Jedi, and it is the first place where individuals began exploring the nature of the Force.

People usually travel in Wadi Rum by jeeps or camels. But, Star Wars really took it up a notch!

If you consider a tour to Petra, then we definitely recommend to add also one day in Wadi Rum with an overnight at a Bedouin camp in Wadi Rum, enjoying a special Bedouin dinner and a jeep tour in the spectacular landscapes of Wadi Rum nature reserve.

When you go to Wadi Rum Tours, you can take a photo like this, and pretend that you are on Jedha.

Important announcement for Israelis who visit Jordan

Important announcement for Israelis who visit Jordan

This is an important announcement that was issued by the Jordanians on May 2nd 2019:

1. All Israelis who visit Jordan, including Israelis who just go to Aqaba, must coordinate in advance a Jordanian guide.

2. In addition, everyone who will stay at a hotel must bring with them a hotel’s invitation document for a hotel that was prepaid in advance.

Any passenger who won’t be allowed to enter to Jordan, and will be sent back to Israel by the Jordanians because of any reason, won’t get a refund for the paid border fees!

This is an official statement that was issued by the management of Itzaac Rabin terminal.

Even if you just booked a hotel in Aqaba and you don’t need a guide, you still need a Jordanian guide who will meet you at the border crossing, arrange the necessary documents and state that he is your guide.

You won’t be able to get a guide after you crossed the border to Jordan. You must arrange a Jordanian guide in advance, before crossing the border to Jordan, who will arrive to the border crossing with a copy of your passports and the necessary documents.

In case that you don’t have a Jordanian guide, you can contact us, and we will arrange for you a Jordanian guide who will meet you at the border crossing, issue all the necessary documents, help you with the border procedures and also take you to your hotel in Aqaba and back to Eilat. In addition, our representative in Eilat will meet you at the Israeli side of the border crossing, and explain to you everything that you need to know.

It’s better to arrange everything in advance. But, sometimes, we are able to arrange a Jordanian guide who will meet you at the border crossing in a short notice. So, you can call us when you are at the entrance to the Israeli side of the border crossing.

We also recommend you to book our private tours to Petra and our flagship tours – the one day tour to Petra and the two days tour to Petra and Wadi Rum. These tours are also available from Aqaba.

Please be aware that if you stay in Jordan for 3 nights or more, then you won’t have to pay the Jordanian departure tax.
