Just 3 of us on the tour. My wife & I and an English speaking German tourist. A nice & friendly group! We were driven a short distance to the Old Town (Al-Balad).

“It felt a bit disorganized. I received several messages stating that I needed to arrive no later than 7:15 or my spot would be cancelled. Yet we went nowhere until close to 8 am. Once we arrived, we were combined with other groups and the poor guide onsite was trying to manage 3 different groups in multiple languages and it took forever. Half the group got sent back to the bus for no reason and missed out.”
