Truly enjoyed this immersive experience, traveling through time in old town Al Ula, complete with local actors depicting Perfumers, Traders, Merchants, and more! They shared a wealth of information in both English and Arabic. Such a treat for the senses, where we got to guess different scents, learn about the history of the incense road, and get to know people who’s families have lived in the houses that the tour is taking place in for at least 600 years! We booked at the old town visitors centre and not on trip advisor. It was very smooth.
