It is a great place to see rare animals like the Arabian oryx and ostriches. The safari tour is fun and lets you get close to the animals. The visitor centre has interesting displays about conservation and some animals in the outdoor enclosures. It’s a perfect place for nature lovers and families. Highly recommend visiting. Make sure to book the safari in advance, four people minimum.

That was amazing experience! Great staff they have enough knowledge about the conservation . Rather than u can’t see so many animals in safari tour, you still gonna spend great time in safari . Great for kids ,there are place for barbecue if ur interested and kids play area too .

We arrived here from Amman at about 2pm because our hotel room was not ready yet and we had some time to spent. It looked very empty, just two more cars were at the entrance, so we were not sure if it was even open. When we came to the entry, we were greeted immediately and told them that we want to do the 1 hour safari tour. We were able to use the toilets in the visitor center and although we were only two persons, the guide waited for us with a car outside and immediately started the tour. He told us a lot of interesting things and we saw some bucks. It was a very nice tour! Thank you

While I was excited to see the animals, the weather didn't cooperate, which limited my sightings. The staff was a bit different from what I expected, but they were helpful in guiding us. One aspect that stood out was the excellent cars they provided for exploring the reserve, which added to the overall experience. Despite the challenges, I'm hopeful that a return visit under better conditions will allow me to fully appreciate the reserve's beauty and wildlife.

I visited the Shaumari Wildlife Reserve today, and I regret waiting so long to experience this wonderful place. The beauty of the ostriches, the amazing birds, and the stunning dear’s species were truly unforgettable. Mr. Laith Al-Safadi was exceptional in explaining the reserve, adding a wonderful touch in highlighting its national value and the importance of biodiversity. Truly, visiting the reserve was an inspiring experience that rekindled my love for my country, Jordan. I highly recommend everyone to visit this natural beauty!
