Ayat was an excellent guide – very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She brought the old district of Jeddah to life and answered all my questions about Saudi culture and daily life. My main goal was to truly understand how people live here, and she delivered that completely. The whole experience felt warm, welcoming and personal because of her. I’d definitely recommend this tour.

We had a wonderful historic district tour in Jeddah with our female guide, Anat Alsharif. She was incredibly attentive, genuine, and inspiring throughout the experience. Her insights into the history, culture, and daily local life made the tour truly special and meaningful. Anat has deep knowledge and a beautiful way of connecting the past with present-day Jeddah. She also shared excellent local recommendations that we genuinely enjoyed. Highly recommended for anyone who wants an insightful and authentic experience. Family Garcia Suari

We’ve enjoyed the tour with local guide Ayat. She is super good planner and flexible. Very knowledgeable. We’ve learned a lot about old traditions as well as about modern life in Jeddah and also plans for future. The same time information wasn’t boring. 100% recommendation.

Al Balad is a beautiful and fascinating place and being guided by Ayat added another dimension in the historical and cultural context she provided. Ayat has post-graduate qualifications in Interior Design so she has a keen appreciation of the architecture and decorative crafts on display and she communicates her enthusiasm fluently and with warmth. It was great to try some of the local specialities and to have recourse to a local expert. Highly recommended.
