At-Turaif, outside of Jeddah
Days 1 & 2: Riyadh & Diriyah
Your first stop should be the National Museum: It’s a stunning collection of Saudi artwork, history and jewelry. From there, the possibilities are endless: world-class shopping at boutiques or countless souqs, or jaunts to the great outdoors at the King Abdulaziz National Reserve or Al Kharrarah National Park. Perched about a 20-minute drive outside Riyadh proper, Diriyah is a town renowned as the birthplace of Saudi Arabia. Strolling its maze of winding alleyways and mud-brick architecture has you tracing the footsteps of visionaries and kings.

Elephant Rock at night
Days 3 & 4: AlUla
Arguably the centerpiece of any and every itinerary, AlUla is a sight to behold. You could dedicate days to exploring it … starting with the ancient city of Hegra. Consisting of over 110 remarkably well-preserved tombs, defensive walls, towers and gates, the sum of these remnants adds up to be the country’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Arch and Face Rock are can’t-miss spots, as is the chance to have dinner next to the iconic Elephant Rock. The next day, visit Maraya, the world’s largest mirrored building — 108,000 square feet gleaming in the desert.

Overwater suites at The St. Regis Red Sea Resort
Days 5 - 8: The Red Sea
The Red Sea might just be the world’s best-kept beach resort secret. These are world-class private islands and overwater villas, popping up gradually like coral on a shipwreck. You could spend all three days staring out at the Red Sea, meditating on its beauty — but you’d be remiss not to immerse yourself in it via snorkeling, sailing, kayaking … if you’re certified, you should scuba dive. This is one of the world’s largest and least-explored coral reefs — an absolute bucket-list experience for those enchanted by underwater realms.
