A wonderful evening visiting historic Jeddah’s buildings, shopping districts, coffee and tea shops and the Al-Shafi’i Mosque. The full five hours was required and we could have stayed longer! Our guide Abdullah did a great job… very friendly, thoughtful commentary on the sites and history, good food recommendations, and on-time pickup with a very nice car.
Best guide ever made it the best tour

We booked this tour to see the city during our F1 race week. Actually we had visited the old town during midday the day before. But it was so much better taking the tour with an expert. Ibrahim picked us up from the hotel - and was an excellent guide through the old city. He described the history and pointed out key buildings. Even introduced us to camel milk and suggested an excellent seafood restaurant for dinner. Much easier having a local as a guide - and Ibrahim seemed to knew so many of the locals owners and guides in the area. It was a lovely evening and would recommend doing this tour - Al Balad comes alive at night !
