Hillawi Camp, nestled in the center
of Wadi Rum's breathtaking terrain, exemplifies timeless desert charm and
Bedouin friendliness. Hillawi Camp, founded in 2000, is inspired by the
innovative spirit of Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hillawi, often known as Abu Ali.
Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hillawi:
Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hillawi was born
in Aqaba, Jordan, in 1939, and began his career in tourism by organizing
Jordan's first diving club, the Aqaba Diving Center. He got inspiration during
his leisurely travels in Wadi Rum. He was enamored with the desert's ethereal
beauty and hoped to share its wonders with the rest of the world.
Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hillawi planned
his first trip to Wadi Rum in 1964, which marked the start of a
fantastic desert tourist journey. With unwavering determination, he worked to
raise Wadi Rum's visibility on the international stage, highlighting its
cultural diversity and natural beauty.
The legacy continues:
Hillawi Camp is celebrating nearly
six decades of excellence in desert hospitality. The camp, which is rooted in
Bedouin heritage, provides an ideal balance of authenticity and modern luxury.
Each tent is a refuge, painstakingly designed to provide an unforgettable
retreat among the gorgeous dunes.
Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hillawi's legacy
continues at Hillawi Camp, where every guest is greeted with the warmth of
traditional Bedouin hospitality. As the desert breezes whisper stories of
ancient sands, Hillawi Camp invites you on a journey of discovery where time
stands still and nature's wonders unfold.
