Traditional Cooking in the Desert

Your experience begins in the stunning surroundings of Petra’s desert landscape, where you are warmly welcomed by a local Bedouin team.

Learn how traditional Jordanian dishes are prepared using time-honored techniques passed down through generations.

What You’ll Experience:

• Preparation of authentic Jordanian recipes

• Cooking over an open fire or underground sand oven (Zarb-style)

• Fresh local ingredients and spices

• Arabic tea preparation

• Cultural storytelling and Bedouin hospitality

As the food slowly cooks, enjoy conversations about local traditions, nomadic life, and the rich heritage of southern Jordan.

The highlight? Sharing the freshly prepared meal together under the open sky — a true Bedouin-style dining experience.
