Riyadh Tours & Activities | Top Things to Do in Saudi Arabia

Riyadh is a city where tradition and modernity blend seamlessly under the warm Arabian sun. As the bustling capital of Saudi Arabia, it offers dazzling skyscrapers, grand shopping malls, lively souks, and tranquil parks, making it a fascinating getaway for travelers eager to explore authentic Middle Eastern culture alongside a fast-paced urban lifestyle.

A Glimpse into the Past

Once a modest oasis settlement, Riyadh has grown into a thriving metropolis in just a few decades. Its roots stretch back centuries, with forts and palaces bearing witness to its important role in regional history. Today, visitors can wander through the old town alleys and still feel echoes of its rich heritage.

Best Time to Visit

The most comfortable months to explore are between October and March. During this period, temperatures are much cooler and perfect for sightseeing and outdoor activities. Summers, on the other hand, tend to be extremely hot, making indoor attractions more popular during those times.

Do I Need a Visa to Visit?

Most foreign travelers need a visa to enter Saudi Arabia. Tourist e-visas are available online and are relatively easy to obtain for many nationalities.
