Hi . . I am Dr Thamer, a certified tour guide in Riyadh city ( License # 40000691). I am a faculty staff member in an educational field. I teach English as a second language. During my studies in the UK, I participated in a cultural day at the Uni. I was so happy to talk about my country and the cultural differences. I like to meet people and show them my lovely country. I made many tours with guests from different parts of the world; Italy, China, UK, India and USA. We traveled through time to more than thousands years in the past to talk about the stone age and how did those people survived during that time. On the other hand, we used the time capsule to travel 300 years back to meet the founder of Saudi Arabia. We will visit some places that have emotional breath-taking stories relatedto king Abdulaziz and how he unified the Kingdome of Saudi Arabia. … with me, you will not get bored … - PhD degree in TESOL - UK - Certified Tour-Guide: Ministry of Tourism- Saudi Araia In my tours I have no restrictions

Overview of your Riyadh tour

There are many reasons that made Riyadh city so special. It is located in the central region of the Kingdom. Riyadh means oasis. It was the main destination for caravans and travelers who used to cross the area from east to west and vice versa. It has many historical and modern attractive places. Starting from the heritage villages and forts up to skyscrapers, malls and game cities. One of these attractions is Almasmak Fort. Actually, it is one of the important places that you need to visit during your stay in Riyadh. It was the headquarter of the army. This fort is one of the most important castles in Riyadh. In front of its gate, a battle was happened in 1902 where it was the beginning of a new era of the kingdom. We will go back through time to witness the regain of the fort by the founder King Abdulaziz. With me, you will enjoy many stories and information related to this fort and will live the moment as you were living with them at that time.
