Ziyara in Madinah - It was an amazing experience. The best tour guide I ever had. My family had a nice time with Abou Yousef touring and talking us through all the historical places in Madinah. My kids enjoyed the ice cream treat as well.

Great Madina Tour with Family - Abu Yousuf - the guide is the best tour operator. He is a local Madina resident and knows all stories hard to find with with any other tour operators. The Medina tour lasted almost 4 hours and the time lapsed so fast in hearing all the stories Abu Yousuf had to share of Medina and Islamic histories. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for learning about Madina, its history, people and how Islam seeded and thrived here.

Highly recommend! - My family and I were absolutely delighted with our private tour of Madinah. From the moment we started, it was clear that this tour would exceed all our expectations. Our tour guide, Abu Yousef, was nothing short of remarkable. As a local, his knowledge of Madinah’s rich history was clear. He wove together stories of the past with the present, bringing the history of the city to life in a way that was both engaging and deeply moving.
Abu Yousef wasn't just a guide; he was a host in the truest sense of the word. His hospitality made us feel welcomed and valued, adding a warm, personal touch to our journey through Madinah. It’s one thing to visit a place, but another entirely to experience it through the eyes of someone who holds it dear to their heart, and that’s exactly what Abu Yousef provided.
I would not only recommend this private tour to others but eagerly look forward to embarking on another journey with Abu Yousef should we visit again. It’s rare to find such a combination of passion, knowledge, and hospitality. If you’re planning to visit Madinah. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation of the city, enriched by the stories and insights of a truly exceptional guide.

Fantastic tour! - Absolutely fantastic tour! Our local guide was knowledgeable and engaging. We saw all the highlights without feeling rushed. My mom with reduced mobility really enjoyed sightseeing at her own pace. Bonus: the sweet stop at Al bardisi was such a treat.
Highly recommend!

Excellent Madinah Ziyarat - Look no further - If you need to go on a Madinah Ziyarat tour, look no further. Abu Yousef provides an exemplary Madinah historical tour in perfect native English. He's reliable, efficient, patient and trustworthy (if ladies or solo travellers), and as a local Madinah resident, he is a fountain of knowledge that will will transport you back in time. We thoroughly enjoyed his narration and explanation and would wholeheartedly recommend him. Thank you, Fauzia Kidwai (UK/UAE)

Cancelled by Operator on the morning of the tour - In early August, I had booked this trip for my family as we were intending to inshallah travel to KSA for umrah. With three young kids, I have to plan and be organised. Yesterday and prior, I messaged the tour operator. However, no reply or response was received. Today was supposedly this tour, and whilst sending several messages on WhatsApp and calling the number, no response or reply. I had ensured my children were up and ready for the tour waiting in the lobby at 7.50am. Finally, at 8.38am, the tour operator messaged, claiming he never received the booking confirmation and was on vacation outside of Madinah. He agreed to refund the fee and provided an option to provide a free tour, but honestly, I am so disheartened with this experience and the poor communication, that I just requested a refund and did not wish to engage in any furrher dialogue. A complete disaster, but Alhumdulillah, Allah had something better planned, and we did things via Uber, exploring all the sites of Mount Uhud.
