    This was a great experience that I would certainly recommend to anyone (I did have a few issues, though, more on that below). The main tour guide, Naveed, did a solid job running the tour. In each city, we had a separate guide that led us through the area and every one of those presenters did a fabulous job. This is a great way to experience the major highlights of Saudi Arabia. A good chunk of the tour consists of driving from one city to the next, a distance that usually took about 4-6 hours to cover. The van we traveled in was comfortable, and I loved seeing the more remote parts of the country. I did have a few problems on my tour, however. I was scammed by a taxi driver when I first arrived in the country: long story short, the scammer was the first person I saw right after I exited customs, and he claimed he was my transfer to the hotel sent by the tour company. I told him I needed to find someone with the sign that had my name, but this individual wouldn't not leave me alone: he aggressively followed me through the arrival area, eventually handing me a cell phone with an English speaker on the other end, who said that the tour company had sent that driver and that I would be reimbursed. Sure enough, this driver had nothing to do with the tour, and come to find out, my actual driver was waiting at the complete other end of the terminal. THE ACTUAL DRIVER FOR KURBAN TOURS NEEDED TO BE MORE OBVIOUS. There were also issues regarding dinner reservations at the hotels, namely, the tour company said that the dinner was included, but the restaurant and reception desks had no idea that the meals were purchased. This is probably not the fault of the tour company; this is more than likely a growing pain for Saudi Arabia's fledgling tourist industry. While the itinerary was, overall, well-planned, there were a few spots that need refining. In Al Ula, we had over two hours of free time... but there was nothing to do in the area we were dropped off at beside hanging out at Kudu (the Saudi Arabian equivalent of Burger King). On our day tour of Jeddah, a good chunk of time was wasted due to the Friday prayers (I'm not sure how they could solve that one, but the squandered moments were certainly unfortunate). Overall, though, this was a great tour with great leaders operating it. Issues and bumps aside, I would happily recommend this package to anyone.

    Very uncomfortable small bus did not have enough room for our 9 guests, 3 translators, guide and driver, even on excursions where we only brought day-bags (rather than entire luggage); uncomfortable seats and NOT ENOUGH LEG ROOM for taller non-local Westerners, worthless torn cloth blinds on the windows that could not be securely open or closed. Each of our 3 translators (who also served as guides for the tour overall) was GREAT! Consistently helpful, capable and personable; very positive attitudes and considerate individuals: 5+ stars for them! Local guides were also consistently great, although there was an ugly scene between our Jeddah(?) guide and our driver, leading to a verbal argument and the guide stomping off the bus.
