Dammam City Tour Half Day 4-5 Hrs

OVERVIEW Of DAMMAM CITY TOUR

View the most revealing attractions in Dammam and come away with a genuine feel for the local lifestyle. The city was a small fishing hamlet until 1938 when vast oil reserves were discovered, which fueled a boom economy that has never let up.

Dammam is extraordinarily modern and most everything you see has been built since that discovery, including Share Al-Hob. Known locally as the Love Market – although that nickname is somewhat of a mystery – Share Al-Hob is a collection of shops featuring merchandise such as jewelry, hand-crafted carpets, art work and antiques. After browsing the marketplace, you will travel along Dammam’s coastal Corniche and stop along the way for photos of the landmarks.

The waterfront promenade is exceptionally popular as it is lined with shops, restaurants and gardens. Chances are, you will see joggers, families picnicking and locals fishing along the sea wall. The setting presents an authentic slice of life you won’t soon forget.
