Before we recommend any destined to our customers we always want to experience it ourselves. In January 2022 a group of Lufthansa City Center Travel advisors joined a trip to Saudi to explore the country and find the most stunning viewpoints, most renowned restaurant and breath-taking nature sites,

"We had a very interesting trip where we got a different picture of Saudi Arabia. The country is changing rapidly and tourism is gradually taking off. The population is hospitable and we have noticed several times that they are open to a conversation. This is certainly an interesting destination for customers who want to get to know a new country. Tourism still has some beginner problems, but we are happy to take that on board. I’m confident that, after this fam trip, different groups to Saudi will be realized."

"The site seeing was incredible – from the new to the old. The highlight was most definitely our visit to Alula – the rock formations and the tombs with the stories behind them were so insightful from a time so long ago and how they managed to build these tombs with the most basic of implements was outstanding. The visit to the Elephant Rock was super with the moon peeping over the rocks and everyone sitting in pits that had been dug out to watch the spectacle!"

"I have to say that this trip changed my mind completely concerning the way of living in Saudi Arabia. I found a much more open society than expected and a much more liberal discipline in daily live which convinces me will speed up the development of tourism. The beauty of the landscape was like expected and will be one of the most useful assets to further development in tourism. This country will be a tremendous enrichment for tourism worldwide in a constantly smaller world still to be discovered."
