Microlight flying

The club operates 1 microlight in Wadi Rum which takes 1 passenger at a time. Passengers are taken on a tour of Wadi Rum for various times of their choice, from a 10 minute flight or for up to an hour.

There is also the availability to do a training course and qualify as a microlight pilot.

With this lightweight aircraft you will cruise at speeds of 80 to 90 km/h at altitudes of 1000-1200 meters which is ideal to take superb photos of the beautiful rock formations and sand dunes.
