Ahmed at Glory tours was fantastic really friendly and accommodating. You cannot ask for a better guide - arrives on times knowledgable and gets to know you and how you like things. On our east of city tour he made our day even more after swimming in the waterfalls just pulls out local Salahah bread and tea - never has anything tasted better or just the perfect spot for something so local - thank you Ahmed for everything you were amazing

We didn’t know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised. The landscape is beautiful. The tour was amazing. But what made the tour so amazing was our tour guide and driver. We had a private tour for eight. One of our highlights was having tea 7000 feet above sea level. Snacks were great. View amazing. We would all highly recommend this tour and company.
