Al-Ula Tour

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel and travel to the old town of Al-Ula to learn about the city's history.

With habitation dating back to the 12th century, the historic center features a labyrinth of narrow streets lined with stores and houses built with stone and adobe. We'll explore the origins of the town and its economic prosperity tied to the "Incense Route".

The guided tour includes a visit to an ancient castle and narratives of legends passed down through generations in Al-Ula.

We'll also examine traditional Arab architecture and discuss the reasons behind the city's abandonment at the end of the 20th century, when inhabitants relocated to modern Al-Ula, located 6.2 miles (10 km) away, offering safer infrastructure.

After one hour of sightseeing, the tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel.
