Great! - This tour was definitely worth it and Mohammed was super friendly, on time, considerate and any questions we had he was more than happy to answer. He helped us to and from the grand mosque & helped us with our QR codes - and appropriate dress wear. We were able to take our time as we toured the mosque while he waited on us. It was great!

Disappointing trip - no guided tour as advertised - This is not a guided tour as the title states. You’re paying for a driver and entry fee. We were expecting someone to come inside with us and give us history/knowledge. Instead, he dropped us there and said we should be back in an hour then took us home. Also, his English was very poor and 5 minutes into the journey he mentioned his salary, how poor he is and that we must be rich as we’re from the UK. We felt this was very unprofessional and made us uncomfortable.
