Highlight of our Saudi trip! - The tour was excellent. It was the highlight of our trip to Saudi. I cannot say enough good things about our tour guide, Rana. She was amazing! Very knowledgeable and helpful, and accommodated a small change in our plans because we wanted to see another site. Overall, highly recommended!

Incredible Cultural Experience: A Must When Visiting AlUla - From start to finish, this tour was an amazing cultural experience. Our guide, Khadijah, picked us up right on time and immediately made us feel welcome. She dropped us off at Winter Park, where another bus took us out to Hegra for a guided tour with four different stops exploring the breathtaking tombs. Each site was fascinating and beautifully preserved. You really feel the history around you. We then went to Elephant Rock for the most breathtaking sunset and coffee. Afterward, Khadijah picked us up and took us to Old Town, where she walked us through the stories behind the roads, architecture, and daily life that once filled the area. She shared so much knowledge and passion that it brought everything to life. I truly implore anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the culture and history of AlUla to take this tour. It’s one of those experiences that stays with you long after it’s over.

AlUla with our amazing tour guide Moe - We had the most amazing experience in Al-Ula and it was all because of Moe. He made everything so easy for us and he treated us with care and he was always willing to help. If you come to AlUla make sure you book your tours with Moe. He is definitely the best.

Simply Stunning - Day tour of Alula - We visited Hegra, Elephant Rock and old town Alula in the space of 7 hours with the wonderful Mohammed Al Bokhari as our guide to all things Saudi Arabia!! These tours will vary depending on time of year and time of day when you start. We started at 2pm with Hegra which saw us join a group tour of the whole site. The place is amazing and we can understand why it’s a must see ! This part of the tour took about 3 hours. Moe then took us to the fantastic Elephant Rock where we also got a chance to soak in the atmosphere (as well as the coffee!). Timing was great as we managed to see sunset with Elephant Rock Finally we visited the old town Alula which is very much a mix of old and new - and at night time you can see the place come alive with restaurants and shops lining the Main Street. All in all a fantastic day made even better with Moe guiding us through it all.

Best day - Had a fabulous time with our guide, so accommodating and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend. We did Hegra, Elephant Rock, AlUla old town and oasis, Rainbow Arch and Maraya all in two days. Out guide even came and picked us up and took us into town for dinner and there was an art show he thought we should see - so lovely.
