Earlier this year, Saudi Arabia recorded a historic milestone in its tourism industry – welcoming over 100 million tourists.
“Malaysia is a key source market for Saudi. It has the 20th largest Muslim population in the world, and the country holds a special place in our hearts. We’ve always admired Malaysia’s vibrant culture, warm hospitality, and amazing culinary traditions.” Through STA’s office in Kuala Lumpur, the Saudi Arabian tourism ministry will continue to work closely with travel partners in Malaysia.

The three resorts, described as private island paradises with overwater or beach villas, are: Six Senses Southern Dunes, a 76-key inland desert resort that pays tribute to the Nabataean heritage of the surrounding desert; St Regis Red Sea, a luxury resort on a private island with 90 over-water and beachfront villas; and Nujuma, the seventh Ritz-Carlton Reserve in the world.
“Women can perform Umrah without needing a male guardian, and to make female travellers’ experiences even better, Saudi has introduced specialised trips like the 12-day Saudi Arabia’s Women Expedition.”
