Discover a unique perspective of Saudi Arabia on a women-only expedition

On this women-only adventure through Saudi Arabia’s dramatic landscapes and UNESCO World Heritage sites, you’ll spend 12 days learning about the country’s deep history, sampling local cuisine and connecting with local women. Eager to tell their own stories, they’ll introduce you to the diverse lives of Saudi women today. Visit a citrus farm run by two sisters who turned their father’s vision into a multigenerational business, learn traditional recipes with a local cook, explore the Holy City of Madinah and the historic district of Al Balad with female guides, and unwind at a women-only beach club on the Red Sea.

Why you will love this tour....

See the remarkable rock formations and giant Nabatean era-tombs of Hegra, visit a family-owned citrus farm and explore the world’s largest mirrored building in AlUla.
Visit Madinah – the second holiest site in Islam, after Mecca – and tuck into a Saudi-style picnic of local bread and peppermint tea with views over the Holy City.
Take a bullet train to Jeddah’s Al Balad – a UNESCO World Heritage site – and wander the narrow streets, meet friendly vendors and sample local delicacies.
Cruise the Red Sea on a boat trip. Jump in and float in the salty water, maybe go for a snorkel and end it all at a private women-only beach club for sunset.
This trip is designed to support local women and entrepreneurs. You’ll travel with a female leader and guides, join a local cook for a cooking demonstration, share a home-cooked meal with a family and stay in a female-owned boutique hotel.
