Riyadh

Commence your journey in Riyadh, a city blending towering modernity with deep heritage. Stay at the luxurious St. Regis Riyadh and immerse yourself in local culture with a traditional Saudi feast hosted by a local family. Explore Riyadh accompanied by an expert guide, visiting the National Museum, a national landmark and World Heritage Site,

before exploring Diriyah, where the state of Saudi Arabia first began. Once home to the royal family, now a UNESCO protected site, uncover its riveting origins in this historical experience. Discover the ins and outs of daily life with a unique visit to a city mosque, before driving to the mesmerising Edge of the World. Amidst infinite sand dunes, hike up the impressive escarpment and marvel as the cliffs drop away to present uninterrupted panoramas stretching for miles. Descend into a subterranean cave and watch as the sun dips below the horizon casting orange hues against looming rock formations.

AlUla

Uncover the hidden marvels of AlUla, an otherworldly desert region adorned with sculpted sandstone, monumental rock formations, and vast empty landscapes. Accompanied by your personal historian, explore Old AlUla, the fascinating 6th-century ruins of an ancient town where preserved tombs and historic dwellings tell timeless stories. Soar above this UNESCO World Heritage Site in a hot air balloon, then venture to the ancient tombs of Hegra by land rover. Relish an intimate lunch at a Saudi Princess's oasis residence before an adrenaline-fueled canyon ride in a desert buggy. Conclude your AlUla experience with a captivating nature safari through the Sharaan Nature Reserve, ending the evening under a star-lit sky, learning about the astronomy that was once vital to ancient trade routes in this region.
