About Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is the Arab world's largest country and one of travel's most exciting new frontiers. Since opening to tourists in 2019, the Kingdom has been revealing its extraordinary wealth of experiences — from the ancient Nabataean city of AlUla to the futuristic mega-projects of NEOM, from the cosmopolitan energy of Riyadh to the sacred cities of Mecca and Medina.

  • AlUla — Saudi Arabia's answer to Petra, ancient Nabataean and Dadan ruins in dramatic desert canyons
  • Riyadh's Edge of the World — dramatic escarpment with views stretching to infinity
  • The Empty Quarter (Rub'al Khali) — the world's largest continuous sand desert
  • Red Sea Riviera — pristine coral reefs and luxury island resorts
  • Diriyah — the birthplace of the Saudi state, now a stunning UNESCO World Heritage site
