Hello, I'm Thumama, the local Aqabawi tour guide behind Free Walking Tour Aqaba. With a background in history, my true passion lies in culture, politics, and religion. My journey into the world of guiding began when I showed my friends around Jordan. Their positive feedback sparked a realization of my love and aptitude for offering tours, leading me to establish professional tours. Guiding brings me great satisfaction as I get to inspire people and broaden their knowledge, building bridges between cultures through storytelling. Ensuring that people have the best experience while exploring this city, either during or after my tour, is my primary goal. My diverse work life in various industries complements my role as a tour guide. I take pleasure in offering travelers a unique and often unseen glimpse into the real-life experiences here in Aqaba.
