Your Experience
Walk from AlUla Old Town to the oasis on a 75-minute small-group heritage walk with a bilingual Rawi storyteller guide.
Getting started
Begin your 75-minute guided heritage walk at the edge of AlUla Old Town, where you meet your Rawi storyteller guide and fellow small-group guests, with a maximum of 8 participants. After a brief introduction to the route from Old Town toward the oasis farmland, you set off on foot, so arrive a little early and be ready to walk on uneven historic lanes.
What to expect
AlUla Old Town
AlUla Old Town is a historic settlement of stone homes and narrow lanes that mark the starting point of your walk. You explore it at ground level before continuing toward the surrounding palm-filled oasis.
Features
- During this part of the 75-minute guided heritage walk, you stroll the lanes of AlUla Old Town with your Rawi, who shares stories of stone homes, seasonal rhythms, and enduring traditions connected to this trading settlement.
- As part of this small-group tour, with no more than 8 guests, your expert English and Arabic-speaking Rawi storyteller guide keeps the pace easy and interactive so you can ask questions and engage with the surroundings.
Old Town Fort viewpoint
The Old Town Fort viewpoint sits above the settlement, giving you an elevated look at the landscape. It forms a key stop on the route between the town and the oasis.
Features
- From the Old Town Fort viewpoint, you look out over ancient rooftops and the surrounding palm groves, gaining a sense of how the town, farmland, and desert relate to one another.
- Access to the Old Town Fort viewpoint is included in your experience, and your bilingual English and Arabic-speaking Rawi storyteller guide uses this vantage point to explain how people have lived with the climate and terrain over time.
Oasis farmland
The final stretch of the route leads into the working oasis farmland that supports life around AlUla. You move from dense buildings into cultivated fields and palm-filled plots.
Features
- Walking into the working oasis farmland, you observe how water, crops, and date palms create a green corridor and hear more about seasonal rhythms and enduring traditions tied to agriculture.
- Free parking at Old Town South with shuttle service supports a smooth end to your walk, since you can make your way back toward transport independently after leaving the oasis zone.
