Your adventure is led by highly qualified and experienced guides to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. A licensed, French-speaking guide will accompany the group throughout the trek, providing insights into the landscapes, history, and culture of Jordan.

We also use local Bedouin guides , who know the terrain intimately and bring valuable knowledge of the flora, fauna and hidden trails of the region.

For added support, a donkey is provided to carry equipment and assist hikers if needed. All guides are trained in first aid and experienced in various terrains, ensuring safety even in wild and remote areas.

The combination of licensed and local guides allows travelers to benefit from both expert support in English and authentic knowledge of local trails and cultural sites .

Other supervisors

Throughout the trek, a local Bedouin team ensures the smooth running of the adventure: setting up tents, providing portable toilets and showers, preparing meals, and managing luggage transfers. Travelers only need a small daypack for the hike, while evening luggage can be carried in a soft bag.

Breakfast offers options for preparing a picnic lunch, and dinners are cooked every evening. For those feeling tired, a donkey is available to transport them to a jeep pick-up point.

Each campsite has water for washing, and each hiker receives 2 liters of water per day, with the option to supplement it with a donkey. Reusable water bottles are recommended to stay hydrated and reduce plastic waste.

This system allows everyone to fully enjoy the adventure and local hospitality.
