Great day with Ahmed

Ahmed was one of the best guides I’ve had and I been to nearly 45 countries! He has a great passion for his city and when you are with him you will know you are in great hands. Everyone seems to enjoy him in the town and are very hospitable to his tour guest. I felt very fortunate to have seen Jeddah through his eyes and learn the history from him. Shukran!

Ahmed was a wonderful tour guide. He is native to Ballad and has deep knowledge about the history of Jeddah and Ballad. The neighborhood is his - he knows the shopkeepers and restaurant owners and everyone treated us tourists with wonderful Saudi hospitality. We were forced to change our tour time to odd hours and he accommodated our schedule and made it an unforgettable experience. You cannot go wrong with this. Thank you Ahmed!
