Overview

Your guide is a licensed local tour guide based in Jeddah, specialised in Historic Jeddah (Al-Balad), a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

I don’t just “show places”, I tell the stories behind them: the old merchant houses, rawasheen (wooden balconies), hidden alleys, traditional markets, and the Red Sea trade routes that shaped the city. Expect a relaxed, well-paced walk with great photo spots, cultural insights, and optional stops for authentic Hijazi street food and local drinks.

If you want a friendly, professional experience that feels like exploring Al-Balad with a knowledgeable local, I’d love to guide you. Let’s make your Jeddah visit unforgettable.
