Product Description
Getting to know Saudi Arabian regions can be tricky if you’re trying to explore on your own. This Ushaiqer Full-Day Tour with Lunch from Riyadh makes things a whole lot easier by taking you to the old town with a guide who knows their way and who knows the area’s history well. Travel through the town’s old alleyways to see its houses, mosques, and other Najdi architecture.
We reach the traditional village of Ushaiqer after a two-hour drive. One of the most vibrant examples of Najdi architecture, Ushaiqer is typical of the central plateau of Saudi Arabia. Ushaiqer is one of the oldest towns, existing for “over a millennium” and it was a major stopping point for pilgrims coming from territories that are now Kuwait and Iraq to perform Hajj or Umrah in Makkah. We get the opportunity to roam its narrow alleyways that run between elegant traditional houses, palaces, and old mosques. We also visit a private collection of old antiques at a museum in one of the most beautiful old houses in the village. We conclude our visit from an impressive viewpoint overlooking the area. After that, we will have an authentic Arabian picnic experience in the dunes (subject to weather conditions) or at a traditional restaurant before returning to Riyadh.
