Reisroute
Na een rit van twee uur bereiken we het traditionele dorp Ushaiqer. Ushaiqer, een van de meest levendige voorbeelden van Najdi-architectuur, is typerend voor het centrale plateau van Saoedi-Arabië. Ushaiqer is een van de oudste steden, die al "meer dan een millennium" bestaat en het was een belangrijke stopplaats voor pelgrims uit de gebieden die nu Koeweit en Irak zijn om de Hajj of Umrah in Mekka te verrichten. We krijgen de kans om door de smalle steegjes te dwalen die tussen elegante traditionele huizen, paleizen en oude moskeeën lopen. Ook bezoeken we een privécollectie oud antiek in een museum in een van de mooiste oude huizen van het dorp. We sluiten ons bezoek af vanuit een indrukwekkend uitzichtpunt over de omgeving. Daarna hebben we een authentieke Arabische picknickervaring in de duinen (afhankelijk van de weersomstandigheden) of in een traditioneel restaurant voordat we terugkeren naar Riyad.

The city is a small jewel of clay, really beautiful. We were welcomed by an old man that proudly let us inside his house, which he transformed in museum and offered us drinks and snacks of the area. From there we took with a local guide, thay is also the guardian of that museum. Our guide from Riyadh till there, Mohamed, was excellent, giving us lots of interesting info.. He was very knowledgeable, his English faultless. He was also very patient as we extended for longer in activities like lunch and the visit. Totally reccomend.
Thank you for your wonderful review! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We’re delighted you enjoyed Ushayger and the hospitality of the local host. Mohamed will be thrilled to hear your kind words — we’re glad his knowledge, patience, and guidance made your experience memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

A small artificial/redbuilded village far away from Riyad (2 hours drive without traffic). If you saw similar ones in Oman or Yemen, you may skipped. Dinner after the sightseeing was very good.

Awesome day. Tour guide clever, entertaining and intuitive. Great driver. Good taste in music. Took time to ensure the visit was everything I wanted it to be. Lunch restaurant was a lovely too.
The excursion is not good value for money. We went on Friday and after the visit of the town we had to come back to Riyadh for lunch because the restaurant in the town was closed for prayer. So 4 hours drive for 1 hour visit to the town and come back to Riyadh for lunch. The lunch was nice
