We will start our tour of mystic Riyadh by visiting the National Museum, which is the primary custodian of the Saudi national heritage and culture. The Museum is a place of learning and discovery, and it offers an overview of the history of Arabian civilization from Prehistory to our modern era. We continue thereafter to the nearby Murabba Palace (outside visit as in renovation), which is one of the historic buildings of the city. The palace was named after its square, with a form of 400 by 400 meters. We will stop then for lunch in a typical local Saudi restaurant. Afternoon we will continue our tour of mystic Riyadh by visiting the Masmak Fort and its museum that depicts the history of the conquest of Arabia by the Al-Saud family. The palace was built during the reign of Abdullah bin Rashid in the year 1895 A.D. to serve as a military garrison for the Abdullah bin Rashid army. His Majesty King Abdulaziz, the father of the nation today, captured the fort in 1902, making this fort the birthplace of the 3rd Saudi Kingdom, the modern one we live in. At the end of the afternoon, we will pass the Kingdom Tower & the Faisaliah, back to your hotel. Read Less

This morning, we depart for Riyadh’s railway station and board the fast train for Ha’il. The railway link was constructed very recently and allows us to reach Ha’il in just under 5 hours. The city of Ha’il lies at the foot of the imposing Shammar mountain range, whose name is also that of a large northern Arabian tribe. Renowned for its hospitable people, Ha’il is traditionally the home of Saudi Arabia’s poets and writers. An interesting fact about Ha’il is that most of the early European explorers passed by this city during the 19th century (Charles Doughty, Lady Blunt, Charles Huber, Julius Eutin). Lunch at leisure. Upon arrival, we will transfer to our hotel. As it will be early in Ha’il in the early afternoon, we will visit the A’Arif Fort and the nearby heritage museum.

This morning, we will start our journey to Jubbah that lies on an ancient lake. Several archaeological sites of human settlement from the Middle Paleolithic period were found around the margin of the paleolake. Jubbah is surrounded by large sandstone outcrops that are filled with ancient petroglyphs and inscriptions. If the animals that used to live there became extinct because of the desertification that started during the 6th millennium BCE, some men fixed their presence in Jubbah thanks to carvings of aurochs, cheetahs, lions…Those drawings are still visible today on several sandstone outcrops like the Jebel Umm Sanman. Jubbah and Shuwaymis, the other major carving sites of Hail Province, were listed as UNESCO World Heritage in 2015 for their numerous petroglyph panels and rich inscriptions. The region between Ha’il and Al-Ula offers some of the best desert experiences in the world …On our way, we will pass through the famous desert of Nefud Al Kabir, which literally means the “great extent of dunes”. It is 290 kilometers long and 225 kilometers wide, with an area of 103,600 square kilometers. Lunch at leisure. We continue our route to the famous Al Ula area. Early evening, we arrive and check in at our beautifully located hotel, our base for the night. Read Less

Al-Ula is an ancient oasis that has been inhabited for the last 7000 years, as testified by ancient carvings in and around the oasis. During the 1st millennium BCE, the city of Dedan developed thanks to its strategic location on the frankincense trade road to become one of the oldest Arabian kingdoms that ruled over most of what is today the Tabuk and Madinah provinces. During the 1st century BCE, the Nabatean people, coming from Petra, settled 30 kilometers north of Dedan in Al-Hijr, where they built 94 monumental tombs similar to the ones they dug in Petra. We will start our exciting day with the visit of two ancient carving sites in Al-Ula, then will pass by the ancient city of Dedan that was an important oasis on the frankincense trade route between Southern Arabia and the Mediterranean World.. then visit the ancient sites of Ekma and Abu ‘Aoud where the people of the oasis wrote texts in ancient scripts that we will decipher for you, Our visit will be followed by a lunch at leisure. We continue to visit Jebel Al-Fil for a relaxing time next to the “Elephant rock”. In the afternoon Dinner & accommodation in Al-Ula. Read Less

Reach back into the past and encounter AlUla’s ancient cultures and learn about how people lived. Observe expertly carved stone blocks – or betyls – that acted as representations of the gods. Away from Hegra’s captivating tombs, this ancient Nabataean city also boasts examples of ancient engineering and craftsmanship, such as wells and stone-lined water channels. Defensive walls, gates, and towers that once encircled the city show the Roman influence at Hegra. Our visit will be followed by a lunch at leisure, then we continue to the Old City of Al-Ula that became at the beginning of the Islamic era an important staging post along the pilgrimage route to Mecca.
