Khalid took such great care of us! He made sure to contact us, set clear meeting locations, and was always on time. Spoke excellent English, gave us so much great information and history. Provided water(it was hot) And he took the BEST pictures (knew a lot of the best spots). I would totally recommend this tour and hope you get Khalid!
