Reviews

I had Mohammed for a private tour, and it was just fantastic. Seeing the old town in the afternoon and evening light, as well as learning about local customs and Middle Eastern philosophies was super enlightening. Mohammed is kind and informed and funny, too! Walks around the sea where families are enjoying themselves as well as the Yacht Club area puts you right in the middle of the local culture. His openness to discussions of all things Saudi Arabia will allow you to truly appreciate your time in Jeddah. Highly recommend this tour.

We did the Jeddah tour with Mohammed and with his kindness and pride for his country have shown us the magnificent beauty of Jeddah. I highly recommend this tour beacuse in 5 intense hours we could see all the main points of the city. Thanks again to Mohammed who ve been the best guide we could wish. Jeddah has got a lot to offer and seeing all of it in one afternoon is something priceless. I would do it again for sure without any doubt.

Our Guide was very nice, but his English could have been better. We saw some interesting things in Al Balad, the old town, but e.g. not the Souk, which was a pity. Our drive along the Corniche to the Floating Mosque took a long time due to the traffic. This should been considered when planning and offering tours in Jeddah.

The Al Balad area is magical and Yacht Club area is beautiful. The guide was nice and friendly. Having said that, it was not worth the 214 euros. There needs to be paid entrances to something special or interesting.

Very disappointing experience. The tour was extremely rushed and confusing from the start. It began around 5 PM, and a large portion of the time was spent just trying to find parking instead of actually exploring. I was made to walk alone several times while the guide disappeared for long stretches, which was uncomfortable and unprofessional. We also did not get to see many of the places that were promised at the time of booking. Overall, it did not feel like a proper guided tour at all and was definitely not worth the money spent. I would not recommend this experience and this guide to anyone..

We had a wonderful time with Ebtehal. She took her time explaining the history of Jeddah and made sure we took advantage of the scenery to take awesome photos 🙂. I highly recommend this tour.
