The trip was honestly a bit disappointing. Our driver was a bit late in picking us up and the car was in terrible condition and really dirty on the inside, not something you want to spend 3 hours in. It was neither car mentioned in the advertisement too. It was a small Kia.
Also it was me and my mom (both female) and he wanted one of us to sit in-front with him..which was weird in a Muslim city like Medina considering we just met him.
The driver also changed the tour stops around so it was hard to keep track of the places we had visited and what was next. He also offered to take us to the Medina Museum for 250 SAR, but looking online the entrance fee was only 25 SAR..there also wasn’t much explanation around the sites, we were just told to get out and walk around.
I would look for better options and with someone who speaks your native language to guide you around the sites. This felt like just a taxi ride around the city.
