Best of AlUla
2-Day Private Tour
The Experience
Everything AlUla has to offer — unhurried, over two days
For travelers who want to experience AlUla at its fullest, this two-day private tour covers everything — from the UNESCO heritage of Hegra and the ancient kingdoms of Dadan to the modern beauty of Maraya, the living oasis, the volcanic Harrat viewpoint, and the creative energy of AlJadidah.
Day 1 takes you through AlUla's most iconic sites — Hegra, Maraya, Elephant Rock, Old Town, and AlJadidah — ending with dinner included. Day 2 goes deeper: Dadan & Jabal Ikmah (the Open Library), the Oasis Trail, Harrat Viewpoint, and lunch at Shalal Cafe.
Both days are private — only your group, your guide, your pace. Abdullah has been leading these tours since before AlUla was on the world map, and his knowledge of both the famous sites and the hidden stories is unmatched.
"Two days is what AlUla deserves. One day is never enough to understand what this place truly is."
— Abdullah, AlUla Destination Specialist
Your Journey
Two days. Nine stops. All of AlUla.
The most complete AlUla experience available — private, flexible, and led by a guide who grew up here.
Day 1 · Stop 01
Hegra
Duration
2 hours
Hegra
Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore ancient Nabataean tombs carved directly into rose-coloured sandstone cliffs — some of the best-preserved in the Arabian Peninsula. Entry ticket and shuttle bus transportation inside the site are included.
Maraya
A photo stop at the world's largest mirrored building. Surrounded by desert landscape, Maraya's mirror-clad facade reflects the mountains and sky in a way that feels almost surreal — a perfect moment to pause, breathe, and photograph.
Jabal AlFil (Elephant Rock)
One of AlUla's most iconic natural landmarks — a massive sandstone formation shaped over millions of years into the unmistakable silhouette of an elephant. Walk around it, feel the scale, and understand why AlUla's landscapes have captivated travellers for centuries.
Old Town of AlUla
A labyrinth of mud-brick houses, narrow alleys, and traditional souqs that tell the story of AlUla's centuries of continuous habitation. Your guide shares the stories behind the stones — the families, the trades, the daily life of a town that thrived for 900 years.
AlJadidah Arts District + Dinner
AlUla's creative heart — a cluster of galleries, studios, and cultural spaces where contemporary Saudi art meets ancient heritage. Day 1 ends with dinner included, a moment to reflect on everything you've seen and prepare for day two.
