The desert valley in southern Jordan stretches across a mostly flat landscape of burnt orange sand, set against a magnificent backdrop of sandstone mountains. It&#8217;s no little-kept secret \u2013 you might recognize it from mega blockbusters like the <em>Dune <\/em>or <em>Star Wars<\/em> movies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can reach scorching temperatures in the daytime of up to 38\u00b0C (104\u00b0F), while plummeting once the sun sets to below 10\u00b0C (50\u00b0F). It\u2019s not an easy place to live, but that hasn\u2019t stopped the Bedouins, Jordan\u2019s nomadic people, from finding a way. The word Bedouin is derived from the Arabic word for desert dweller, bedwa, and the Bedouins of Jordan are nomadic camel-raising tribes that call this desert home. Bedouin culture is inextricably embedded in this landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"bedouins of jordan tribe on camel back in the desert\" class=\"wp-image-881505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/kilian-karger-WKZ1DqPcP_s-unsplash-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-bedouins-of-jordan-nbsp\">The Bedouins of Jordan&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The history of the Bedouins of Jordan goes back thousands of years, and it is widely accepted that the majority of Jordan\u2019s population is of Bedouin origin.&nbsp;Hear the history and traditions of Bedouin culture firsthand from Abu Tamer Al Ammarin, director of the Al Ammarin camp where you\u2019ll stay when you travel with Trafalgar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once Jordan gained independence in 1946, the country became officially known as the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. \u201cThe Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is the origin of the Bedouins, and the Bedouins are present in all regions of the Kingdom,\u201d says Tamer. \u201cThis land has been inhabited by the Bedouins for thousands of years, since the days of Ottomans. They were present in this area, and this land is still theirs.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"tf__card-wrapper related-blog-2\">\n    <div class=\"tf__post-card\" style=\"background: linear-gradient(\n        rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.44), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.44)), url(https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/1970\/01\/Large-Petra-1021850730.jpg) no-repeat center center \/ cover;\">\n        <div style=\"padding-top:50px; padding-bottom:50px;\" class=\"tf__post-card-content\">\n            <span>Related blog<\/span>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/petra-jordan\/\" title=\"8 things you need to know before visiting Jordan, Petra\">\n                <h2 style=\"max-width: none;\">8 things you need to know before visiting Jordan, Petra<\/h2>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis land has belonged to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammarinbedouincamp.org\/ammarin-tribe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Al Ammarin tribe<\/a> for generations,\u201d says Tamer. \u201cWe have formed an association, to benefit the local community on their land and their existing tribal representation.\u201d Tamer is talking about the association with the local community of Beidha, with the aim to nurture Bedouin culture and providing the Ammarin tribe with sustainable income from the camp. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBedouins are proud of their heritage and of our Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and proud to have joined the Royal Family,\u201d says Tamer. The Jordanian government provides the Bedouin with different services such as education, housing and health clinics, though some Bedouins give it up and prefer their traditional nomadic lifestyle. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1079\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2025\/04\/Large-Bedouin-man-in-Wadi-Rum-tent-469937698-edited.jpg\" alt=\"bedouin man making coffee in a traditional tent\" class=\"wp-image-881506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Bedouin-man-in-Wadi-Rum-tent-469937698-edited.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Bedouin-man-in-Wadi-Rum-tent-469937698-edited-330x185.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Bedouin-man-in-Wadi-Rum-tent-469937698-edited-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Bedouin-man-in-Wadi-Rum-tent-469937698-edited-1536x863.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-traditional-bedouin-practices-nbsp\">Traditional Bedouin practices &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTraditional clothing has changed due to the evolution of life,\u201d explains Tamer. \u201cHowever there are still people in Jordan living in the old ways, like traditional tents.\u201d Nowadays some Bedouin are still entirely nomadic, some are semi-settled, and some are permanently settled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBedouins have customs, traditions and skills \u2013 they have tents made of goat wool, they are skilled with weapons, and they have authentic Arabic coffee which everyone takes pride in drinking,\u201d says Tamer. Bedouin communities are distinguished by the black goat-hair tents, weaved by the women in the tribes using techniques passed down through generations. Why goat wool? They help regulate the temperature, keeping the tents cool in the day, warm at night, and protected from rain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\nTour not found.\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bedouin hospitality preceeds these ancient tribes; the Bedouin people will ensure guests eat before they do, no matter if food is sparse. A guest can stay with the Bedouin for up to three days with no questions asked \u2013&nbsp;only after three days will their hosts ask what their business or intentions are.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBedouins have customs specifically regarding coffee, which involves three cups,\u201d explains Tamer. The first is \u2018haif\u2019, which is \u2018for the soul\u2019; the second is \u2018saif\u2019, meaning \u2018the sword\u2019 which celebrated the bravery of the Bedouin; the third is \u2018keif\u2019 which is to bring a good mood. If you don\u2019t want any more coffee then you must shake your cup to signal so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given their nomadic history and lifestyle, it&#8217;s no surprise the Bedouins of Jordan are highly dependent on their camels, which they domesticated from the desert \u2013 you can still see wild camel herds in Wadi Rum. The Bedouin camel herds provided them with milk, hair, and a way of trekking across the arid landscapes.&nbsp;&#8220;The men have skills like riding camels,&#8221; explains Tamer of the Al Ammarin camp today, and many Bedouin have close bonds with their camels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2025\/04\/Large-Wadi-Rum-Bedouin-playing-an-oud-1211324466-edited.jpg\" alt=\"bedouin man playing an oud in wadi rum\" class=\"wp-image-881507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Wadi-Rum-Bedouin-playing-an-oud-1211324466-edited.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Wadi-Rum-Bedouin-playing-an-oud-1211324466-edited-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Wadi-Rum-Bedouin-playing-an-oud-1211324466-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Large-Wadi-Rum-Bedouin-playing-an-oud-1211324466-edited-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-staying-with-the-bedouins-of-jordan-nbsp\">Staying with the Bedouins of Jordan&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Staying with the Al Ammarin camp in the Jordanian desert is your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/en-us\/about-us\/one-of-a-kind-experiences\/stays-with-stories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stays with Stories<\/a> on Trafalgar\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/jordan-experience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jordan Experience<\/a>, and it&#8217;s one that you&#8217;ll never forget.
