Wadi Rum, Jordan

Off into the desert for some catered camping and good stories over tea, between 4WD and Camel journeys. Travelling to Jordan nearly always includes Petra and the Dead Sea, and we travelled there and were impressed, but Wadi Rum is a bit of beautiful outdoors in the Middle East that is also worth the trip. South of Petra and nearing the Red Sea and the deserts of Saudi Arabia, Wadi Rum is the Desert of Lawrence of Arabia fame and the best place to ride a camel and enjoy a sunset that I can imagine.
