    We set off on a Riyadh landmarks tour, starting with a camel ride. Then we enjoyed a visit to the salt extraction site and watched the sunset in the sandy oasis. Finally, the tour ended in the heritage city of Shaqra, where we visited several museums.” 🐪🌅🏛️

    It was a wonderful trip. We started in Al-Qasab, a beautiful place, and then went to Lake Burudan, a very picturesque place. Our last stop was Shaqra, a beautiful area where we tasted Arabic coffee and visited the museum. Our guide was Badr, a 5-star.

    We set off from Riyadh and arrived at the first stop, where we tried camel riding and enjoyed the desert atmosphere. Then we headed to the White Salt area and took some photos. After that, we went to the Sand Lake, and finally we visited the old town of Shaqra. Our guide, Badr, was kind and also provided us with valuable information.

    Amazing trip &tour guide AYEDH

    The Best Day Ever!

    Our guide Saqr was equally enthusiastic and informative. His wealth of information extended to a broad selection of acquaintances that added something extra to our tour. Saqr added impromptu moments like visits to Bedouin homes for a more intimate experience. He did everything to make the tour as much fun as possible while sharing aspects of Saudi culture. Multiple servings of Saudi coffee and dates kept us fueled for the day.
