Wow! What a mind blowing experience! - We joined a Stargazing Experience in Wadi Rum, and it turned out to be one of the most fascinating parts of our trip. It started with a lecture that was incredibly engaging — not a single moment felt boring. The way everything was explained kept us curious the entire time and made even complex things feel simple and exciting. After that, we stepped outside for a real experience under the open sky, and it was just magical. Being surrounded by the desert, with such a clear sky above, made everything we had just learned feel real. And then the telescopes… seeing the sky through them was absolutely mind-blowing. So much new information, so many discoveries — it was truly captivating from beginning to end.

You have to do this activity from a place just looks like mars! - It was a great experience that I had with my family, thank you rumsky you were amazing, precise and professional, my night was wonderful and I've seen the sky from another perspective. My son who is 10 yrs old is interested in astronomy and he told me to visit rumsky every single night to explore more and to know more about our universe. Welcoming was warm and the operator was very kind to me and the family, then we met the astronomer "almothanna", that guy was very friendly, professional, and it is obvious that he loves his job. I will revisit them as soon as possible and believe me "if you are reading this " that YOU WON'T REGRET TRYING THIS ACTIVITY IN WADI RUM. again, THANK YOU RUMSKY 🤗🤗🤗

Wadi Rum Star gazing - I highly recommend this activity. On arrival, you're in a warm tent with hot drinks, followed by a very informative presentation. You then get to see the stars with excellent telescopes, and they use pointers, so you know exactly which stars they are talking about. Mahmoud and Marah were the astronomers that night, and they were excellent, very knowledgeable, and so enthusiastic and excited that it made our experience unforgettable.

Far beyond my expectations - This was a fantastic experience beyond my expectations. When I heard we were going to stargaze I thought someone would simply take us out to look at the stars with our own eyes. Actually we received a guided telescopic tour of the galaxies, with Fakhri (astralphotographer) giving an entertaining lesson throughout.

Incredibly engaging gang who told about stars and planets - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Great starlight in the desert with Rumsky Adventure** We were picked up at the hotel in the evening and driven together to Rumsky Adventure's center in the Wadi rum desert. The whole group went together, but during the experience we were divided into two, which worked very well. One group was taken with a piece out in the desert, completely away from all light. There we stood in the dark while the guide told engaged about what we saw in the sky. Stars, planets and constellations were explained in an easy-to-understand and interesting way, and it was clear that they had extensive knowledge of astronomy. Afterwards, four telescopes were ready. These automatically followed the planets, adjusted to Earth’s motion, making the experience extra impressive. We were able to see stars from close range, study the moon in detail and observe several planets through the telescopes. The whole setup was very engaging, professional and well organized. This is an experience I can strongly recommend to everyone.

Moon and Clouds - fakhri was a very good host with a great sense of humour, English speaking which was great for us . We had a full moon and cloud which made it a little limited but what we were able to see was well explained and factual . All in all a good experience but check the moon is not full before booking , can’t do much about the clouds 😂

Good experience - I enjoyed the short film that gave me a better understanding on the size of the universe and human self. The astronomer answered questions patiently and humorously.
