Private Tour in Alula with a Local Guide

Really special experience and perfect guide

It was a special experience with the guide Saleh Al-Awfi, who took us on an amazing tour to Al-Ula, where we saw the historical sites and enjoyed it very much. I recommend you take a tour with him

We had the best possible trip to Al Ula thanks to Saleh. He cleverly worked around the unseasonal rain to ensure our two days with him were filled to the brim with the most fantastic sights and experiences. Saleh clearly knows pretty much everyone and anyone worth knowing in Al Ula and at Hegra and he uses his network to the huge benefit of his guests. He is about the safest Saudi driver I have been driven by - I live in Riyadh! He is very thoughtful and knowledgable of the region. If you are taking a guide to Al Ula I couldn't recommend Saleh more highly.

Booked and paid online (650 Euro) one day in advance for a day tour with driver in Alula. No one showed up at 10:00. A good hotel attendant managed to talk to the tour operator who said that for organizational reasons they had not managed to organize the tour BUT NOBODY INFORMED US. We've been told that the money will be returned to us, let's hope it's true.

Visiting Al-Ula was a wonderful experience, and what made it so was the guide Saleh. He did a great job that made us enjoy Al-Ula's winter. He is a very professional person who scheduled the trip and explained the most important places, and what distinguishes him is his mastery of the Spanish language.

Appreciation post to my lovely tourist guide.: Thank you so much for accepting my last-minute request to visit Alula from Madinah. Be my photographer and tell the history of Thamud. I really appreciate your effort to bring me almost to the area with the short time I have. I'm a happy traveler and enjoy every moment.

Saleh is an excellent tour guide! Extremely knowledgeable and personable, Saleh's enthusiasm for the tour is contagious. He packs a full day of activities based on your energy levels and interests. You will also experience Saudi hospitality and introductions to all the local officials at many of the sites -- one of the highlights for me as you often get VIP treatment at the sites due to Saleh's strong and often life-time friendships. Based on schedules and timing, Saleh will also take you to some other locations not listed on the official itinerary including the AlUla Old Town library and art installations across the region. Having lived in Indiana and Florida for several years, Saleh is fluent in English. You will not be disappointed but book early since his popularity is only growing.

Saleh is a very good guide and an excellent companion! The day was tailored to my need and he even got out of his way to provide the best experience and service.

We came from Brazil to explore this wonderful country. We had the privilege of being guided by Saleh, who provided us with in-depth knowledge of the history and local customs. It was an unforgettable experience. Saleh is a very polite person, attentive to the group's needs, and transforms the experience into a pleasant and lighthearted journey.

It was a great day with knowledgeable, caring and devoted guide. Saleh is not just a professional, but also a very pleasant person to deal with. He made our first visit to Al-Ula so interesting that we already thinking about a following visit. In addition to everything Saleh takes great photos that will stay with us as the warmest memories of this trip. Definitely could recommend him as your guide to incredible Al-Ula!
