Why Visit Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia is a tourist’s paradise, offering a rare look at pre-Islamic civilizations and culture. You can visit the 9,000-year-old Al-Magar site in the south or see an 85,000-year-old human footprint. The Ramses III Pharaonic inscription in the north and Mada’in Saleh with its 111 giant tombs are equally impressive.

Beyond ancient sites, Saudi Arabia is full of entertainment and family activities. It’s becoming a global scuba diving hub, with the Red Sea offering dives where you can spot rays, sharks, turtles, barracudas, and colorful reef fish.

Saudi cuisine is delicious, and its people are some of the friendliest and most hospitable in the Middle East.
