Day trip from Amman to Wadi Rum - worth staying overnight or can I see highlights in one day?

One day is enough for Wadi Rum's main sites if you start early. Jeep tours cover Lawrence's Spring, red sand dunes, and rock bridges in 4-5 hours. However, overnight desert camps offer stargazing that's genuinely incredible—Wadi Rum is a Dark Sky Reserve. Stay overnight if your schedule allows; it's a transformative experience.
