Your journey starts with a trip to historical Diriyah, the birthplace of Saudi Arabia and its first capital. The Al Turaif district, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the highlight of Diriyah. It’s constructed of impressive mud-brick architecture and was once the capital of the Al Saud family. Walking through the area gives one a feeling of really stepping back in time. You would be able to go around well-preserved ruins and get to know more about where the Saudi state originated from.

There's not much difference from Al Turaif to the Al Bujairy district. A next surely must-visit destination in your Riyadh city tour is this charming area full of traditional mud houses and maze-like streets. You can also find the great religious scholar Mohammed bin Abdul Wahab's residence there, which enhances this beautiful district with historical as well as cultural significance.

After that, you will be travelling to modern Riyadh to visit the well known Kingdom Tower, also named Mamlaka Tower. As the city’s tallest building, it represents the modern Saudi Arabia. Present in the tower is a luxury shopping mall through which you could get your ‘shop till you drop’ on, or admire the beautiful interiors. We will take you up to Sky Bridge situated at the top of the tower for those breathtaking views of the city’s skyline. You can also have a fine dining experience at one of the high-end restaurants within the tower.

A trip across Riyadh would never be finished if a man did not come to see the Al Rajhi Grand Mosque. Being known as the biggest mosque in Riyadh, this is an epitome of excellent architecture and meaningful spirituality. Any traveller will find it worth visiting due to its great architectural planning and calm environment. Another interesting stop is the Saudi National Library, an architectural modern wonder that acts as a ‘cultural and historical information treasure chest’. It gives visitors a quiet place to sit and learn more regarding the history of Saudi Arabia and its people.

Aside from the metropolis, day trips from Riyadh will let you step out into the beauty of the natural wonders and unique landscapes of the region. One recommended daytrip destination is the Edge of the World. It is a remarkable cliff formation that boasts amazing views of the seemingly surrounding desert.
