Famous Tour to Riyadh & Jeddah
Explore Riyadh and Jeddah, the two most popular cities on Saudi Arabia tours and Egypt and Saudi Arabia Travel Packages. Riyadh, the birthplace of modern Saudi Arabia, offers a blend of old-world charm and 21st-century vision. The name Riyadh translates to "the Gardens," reflecting its history dating back to the 14th century when the area was known for its fertile soil, canals, and trees. Today, Riyadh Province, also known as Al Wosta, is home to the country's capital - a modern metropolis with a thriving financial and business center and a growing cultural scene.
Jeddah, on the other hand, has historically been more open to outside influences, including traders, international artists, and pilgrims en route to Makkah. The city's unofficial motto, "Jeddah ghair," translates to "Jeddah's different." Today, Jeddah is a bustling cosmopolitan hub, featuring modern hotels and hosting major events like the Red Sea International Film Festival.
