Saudi & Tourism - Product Training Level 1
hi everybody this is Saudi tourism product training video and let me walk you through Saudi Arabia as a tourism destination it was December 2013. Saudi Arabia announced its Vision to start the tourist visa so now in 2022 Saudi already the tourism has started and they are doing a lot on to promote Saudi tourism Saudi Arabia mainly there are only two types of we found the tourism one is the laser tourism and another one is religious tourism the vast desert the ancient castles and the Mysterious unique experience could be the strong reason to explore Saudi Arabia also did you know that there are six world heritage sites in Saudi Arabia these are OSIS an evolving cultural landscape I'll explain you all these places District in dariya hegra archaeological sites that is modern Salah it is called Hema cultural area historic Jeddah that is we can say the getaway to Makkah and rock art in the hail region of Saudi Arabia these are the six world heritage heritage sites of Saudi Arabia so we can like summing up you can say that there is never there is no there is you can say that it's never be short of things to see visiting Saudi the reasons to go to so the Arabia for a vacation here I am only going to talk about Saudi as a tourism destination not as any country so as a tourism destination let's see sorry there are three gateways of Saudi Arabia one is Jeddah second was one is Riyadh and the third one is the mom all these three three are International Airport apart from that Madina is also an international airport but these are the three main gateways of Saudi Arabia from tourism point of view Airlines from India there are many airlines which is going to Saudi Arabia from India Saudia Airlines Emirates Etihad Airways air india indigo vistara with flyness Oman Airways Jazeera Airways SpiceJet Gulf Air Air Arabia Sri Lanka Airlines also Qatar Airways Egypt Airways and many more and we find that the slides are operating from Mumbai Bangalore Delhi Hyderabad Chennai Kolkata it's a non-stop flight we get from this destinations also so the connectivity from India is widely available to go to Jeddah or Riyadh now let's navigate Saudi Arabia from the i o eyes of Turi a tourism it is very important in a product trading to navigate the destination if we properly navigate the destinations our work will become very easy to do the sales also to do anything on Saudi Arabia whether it is a product or sales or even operation we must navigate the destination properly so let's navigate the destination property there are 13 provinces of Saudi Arabia like in India we call States Kerala Maharashtra Himachal in Saudi Arabia also there are such 13 provinces now the primary tourist Saudi Arabia places tourist places of Saudi Arabia the primary places out of this from laser point laser point point of view if you take the most top three are Jeddah rayad and al-ula these are still we can say a semi-unconventional locations then Makkah and Madina comes under religious rule this is also the top religious destinations of Saudi and we all know the mom which is the Eastern side of Saudi Arabia this can be explored but still we can't say that it comes under the top destination in story's destination of Saudi Arabia though it should be so this nine actually places Riyadh Eda Makkah Madina and Dammam are the primary tourist places of Saudi Arabia to explore the other tourist places also the Arabia for tourism King Abdullah economic City hail al-job Duba and al-namas now if I'll come I'll show you the map of Saudi Arabia then you will understand but we should remember just keep in mind that these are the other tourist spaces of Saudi Arabia yandu kec help as now Regional locations in the west of Saudi you see this Saudi map this is the Saudi map this this I think so you can see my cursor this is the West this is the Eastern side this is north and this is South so the western side of Saudi Arabia if we navigate the Saudi Bay we find the tourist locations is in Madina District so this is the Eastern side here you find Jeddah from Jeddah it's only 80 kilometers we find Makkah then is just here you can see very close to Makkah here is altaf it's written here then if you come down it's in Al Baha you will get and from Al Baha you will go to abha on the southern side in the southern site of Saudi Arabia is aseel abha this side you can see here you see the asir you see the asir province makta is there after that aseel and then jazan you find after aseel here the jazan is there it's one of the province so these are the southern area where as the the southern side of Saudi Arabia we find these are the tourist places and on the Eastern side I'm talking about this from here is Riyadh and from Riyadh you can see the Eastern said the mom is there just on the border of Qatar here you can see Riyadh is inside these places what we find the tourist places edge of the mountain which you find in Riyadh only also we have taken it into the Eastern side this is the regional wise we can say if in Advocate Saudi Arabia these are the you know on the different region what is on the west what is on the south and what is on the Eastern side now this is where chart is very important for any destination we have to actually know the distance between one place to another place it's very important in tourism so we can see here from jeddapur Riyadh is 950 kilometers 980 Makkah 90 Madina 120 Dammam 1360 in the same way all these places only I have considered the top places like so the distance we should know that in order to travel one place to another place on the same day what is the distance should we make a road transfer or should it be a domestic air transfer this chart is important that's why now here what I have done in the next my next chart we have only taken out from here that what are the places the road transfer in Saudi Arabia is possible whatever it's not possible that means we can one can travel from that place to another place only by air so here is by Road suggested but a limit you have to Define that in one day what should be the limit of Road transfer so here I have just made the maximum limit of 600 kilometer in one day one can travel now if you see that in this chart one can travel by Road also it's it will take hardly eight and a half hours road conditions in Saudi Arabia is very good but since I we have made a limit of 600 kilometers I have not given al-ula to be transferred by Road it is all it is preferred as per my actually when I am going to make the product when you will build the itinerary customize the itinerary so in that way you have to fix a limit so here we can see from Jeddah to Al Baha we can travel by Road from Jeddah to Mecca Road transfer is possible from Jeddah to Madina is also possible these are the three places by road we can make our guest transfer by Road apart from that if any other location suppose Jeddah to abha if someone would like to go then now if you would like to make any itinerary you can say tour plan then it should be by air so in the same way sorry one can transfer to transfer can be done and also from Madina because alula is also in the Medina district and Madina is also District as well as the city Holy City foreign it can be transferred then from Al Baha from Makkah one can Road transfer can be done to Jeddah from Makkah to al-baha also possible and Makkah to Madina is also possible rho transfer can be done and from Madina to Jeddah Madina to alola Madina to Makkah and from dhamma to Riyadh vice versa suppose it's possible by by road then vice versa from the mamturia is also possible apart from this if a six kilometer limit 600 kilometer any other transfers if you would like to do then it is suggested to make it by air there are many LCC carriers in Saudi Arabia that goes from one domestic destinations to another domestic destinations now common air transfers with or without sightseeing normally when we are making any air transfer in Saudi Arabia it always could be with a sightseeing now transfer from Riyadh to alola with Madame Salah when we are transferring somebody from Riyadh to alola then can be included in the same way transfer from Riyadh to al-abha with abha City Tour can be included this is possible transfer from Riyadh to Jeddah with Jeddah City Tour transfer from Jeddah to abha with abha City tour and transfer to Jeddah means in the morning when you are completing this madrasala and then evening one can take a flight from alola and come to Japan in the same way Regal Alma tour first can be done in abha and after that it can be transferred to Jeddah foreign these are the important actually transfers by air I have mentioned here mostly you will come across when you are selling Saudi Arabia so these are the common transfer you should remember and keeping with your mind now Common Road transfer with or without sightseeing here it depends on the distance from one place to another place and then depending on the system distance only we can decide that the side sync can be added or not so transfer from Jeddah to Al Baha we can transfer with al-baha sightseeing can be done then transfer from Riyadh to damam or vice versa when we are transferring from Riyadh to Dammam it is not suggested to include any sightseeing because of the distance between the two places in the same way transfer from al-ula to tabuk with vadi aldisha so the distance between alola and tabuk is not so it's not too much so in that particular transfer you can add a side C suppose again and then transfer from tabuk to alola I am talking about the vice versa of this is also possible because of the distance the vice versa is also possible because of the distance and then transfer to Jeddah is also possible so these are the common transfers with or without sightseeing I am not talking about here like you we can say that al-baha sightseeing and then transfer to Jeddah for departure that depends on the flight timing here I am just focusing on the transfers by Road and by air that you should keep in and keep it in mind because these are very common transfers which you will come across in your day to day selling Saudi Arabia no let's have a glance of the airport and the province and region connectivity as I told you there are three gateways of Saudi Arabia we can consider that is one is Jeddah second is Riyadh and the third one is dhamma though Madina is an international airport but we we cannot say it's a a Gateway of Saudi Arabia from tourism point of view because normally whoever will come to Makkah and Madina for religious tour their first preference will be to learn in the airport that's why so here you can see Jeddah these are the provinces places Jeddah International Airport it comes into Mecca proteins has an International Airport it comes into Riyadh province it's a domestic airport comes into Madina province Abba has a regional airport it comes into acid region ASI region is here you can see after this Makkah this comes acid region so tabuk it's a tabuk is also a regional airport and the province is tabuk region has a domestic airport it comes under al-baha province Makkah has no airport because Jeddah is only 80 kilometer from Makkah and Jeddah has an international airport and that is also can be said that one airport it's a domestic airport so Jeddah and traffic to airport so Makkah has no airport and it comes under Makkah province Madina International Airport Madina Province the mom it has International Airport and we can say it comes under Eastern Province and the capital and it's a capital of Eastern Province the mom has no airport because Riyadh has already international airport so one can land into Riyadh and then go to the area it comes under Riyadh Province only has Regional Airport it comes under Eastern province yangbu it's a regional airport under Madina province k-a-e-c no airport it comes under the nearest airport is Jeddah and it comes under Makkah Province hell Regional Airport hail Province type Regional Airport Makkah province acid there is no airport abha has airport there already I told you Abba has a regional airport so a seal region algeof Regional Airport al-jaf Province jazan Regional Airport jizan region Duba no has no airport it comes the tabuk airport is the nearest airport there it comes under tabuk region and al-namas has also no airport it comes under abha and it comes under a sea region so the province wise if we can be able to remember this map as a province wise it makes our work very easy to navigate the entire Saudi Arabia at a glance now we can see here is Madina Province here is Makkah Province if you go below then uh region and after that you can see jazan in the same way we can see here is tabuk here is aljov and then al-qasim is a region above hell these are the important tourist locations if you will properly see this map the Saudi Arabia map and if you just try to actually look for I say for half an hour properly it will be very easy to recognize now Saudi that which places where lies in the map okay I think we are getting getting it inerary building actually the product training if I will just give you the training of the product like whatever we have in our system or anywhere any product that makes no sense because product might change within a span of time say after three months the product we have to change another product will come but if you will have the itinerary building training like how to build an itinerary then this through this actually itinerary building you can make any product and any new product even it comes in future it will be very easy for you to understand and even to take it and even you can build those itineraries so I am going to give you actually the itinerary building training the strip cards in a little different way to understand I hope you people will understand now the first comes Jeddah here what I have I am showing you there are 40 different kinds of activities of Jetta like Jeddah half day City Tour I am starting with the half day City tour now in Jannah have the city tour one can ask you or they would like to know that in this city too what are the places you are going to include what I am going to see so here I have just given you few examples that can have the city tool for four hours this is the duration one can see Al balad Nassif House Museum Baghdad house Cornish there is the world tourist Fountain we find so I am not going to actually describe all these places I'm just giving you the name of these places in four hours but this is not a hard and fast rule that in jeddahar decide since only these attractions should come it can be customized in any manner if the customer wants I am just giving you this the the attraction points which actually are the means we can say the top attraction so it has been mentioned here from my point of view that these are the attractions in four hours in half decided since it will be covered but I'll tell you it's not hard and fast this is just another example I am getting it to you now half day then gold uh golf car gold car to 30 minutes then House of Nasi and nasif and shopping can be done in five hours now in any itinerary it's you either you can give this half day sightseeing or this half decency welcome you later on that another way you see here Jeddah food tour or another you can see the night tour these are all four hours four hours four hours and five hours means there are half day sizing twos there are four different site since tools popular tools I'm talking about here I have mentioned food tour suppose on day one one is arriving at Jeddah so we can give in an in our itinerary optional tour as Jeddah night tour or food tour it depends on the customer which they would like to take and even if they don't want any side Sur on day one they just land down and transfer to the hotel and they just relax that is okay okay but we can give this network and food tour always we should keep try to use it is suggested to keep as an optional but this half the sightseeing tour and half the Jeddah Bala too now somebody is coming for two nights Jeddah means either it is three days two night two or four days three nights two the budget of the client is very tight you don't want the the client actually doesn't want to spend lot of money you have to bring the package within the budget of the customer at that time what we can do instead of giving like the full day at the tour because in order to control the price of the package you're getting me what I'm trying to tell you here how the SideSync tools only two reasons can be given for hard researching number one to bring the cost of the package down another one that the guest is not having so much time or he is not capable of spending the whole day uh actually because of his health condition whatever may be the condition so at that particular time we can we can bring get the half day sightseeing or half day and I told you the another two remaining that yet the night tour and yet the food tour as an optional on day one or any other day where we find that the activities is not too much only transfer is there so those places we can give an option for as an optional sightseeing tour for night to Jeddah and in the photo now here the historical tour in the historical tour you can see this is eight hours tour historical Northgate foreign because the fountain it's a lovely place so in this eight hours this historical tour can be done even the Jeddah modern tour model tour historical tour we have just changed the name for the full day tour and we have little change the like the attractions here what we find get the sign and Waterfront Yacht Club floating mosque passing by Formula One Arena the Red Sea Mall Aquarium so these two either if in an in a itinerary if you are giving this yet the full day historical tour we should not include this full day at the Modern tool either this or this okay now another thing I would like to tell you we can say this Jeddah means full day or half day tour as per the sequence this is the most popular tour for the first timer suddenly somebody is coming and this is the first timer is coming to Jeddah Saudi of a vacation we cannot actually skip this full day sightseeing tour of Jeddah and we should include any other two subject if the number of nights is more like two nights then we can we are we are coming down then another sightseeing can be added but this we can say number one attraction first attractions to be included in an itinerary now do during bashing tour this is very famous in Jeddah here also sand boarding and interacting with the camels this is a five hour tour these out of these three you can include only one in an itinerary either it's a June bashing or desert Safari with barbecue dinner and entertainment definitely the cost of this uh Day Tour will be higher than Jeddah a dual bashing tour and yet the desert Safari is also five hours five hours all the duration is safe but this tour is that the cost because barbecue dinner and entertainments are included so the cost of this actually tool will be higher than Dune bashing or the desert Safari now desert Safari Dune bashing what is the difference you see here we have mentioned in Dune biasing one can have sand boarding and interacting with the camels and enjoy the desert Safari this is the original desert Safari by quad bike engine and biryan Treats in the same sand rock climbing hiking quad bike and stargazing that means this is something like an adventure tour those who would like to have Adventure actually Adventure like this who are fit who can able to rock who can able to climb on the rock and all so in that case but you have to see the age of the customer the physical fitness of the customer when you know that in the same manner the budget of the customer so out of this three you can include one tools full day obur and Beach tour from Jeddah these two this is a relaxing tool and this is a lovely tool object and it's famous also then Bayada Island Red Sea Adventure here is it's a five six hours tour out of this five hours will be the boat tour fishing water sports activities is there it's a six hour store trip to kratter this trip to tratter this can be done from Jeddah also if somebody is staying in tap from tap staying also can be done and it is it can be done from Mata also so that's why in the bracket I have mentioned that this particular tour from Jeddah also can be conducted from path also can be conducted and from also we can do it now if you would like to know what is crater and all ah it's a makla tayama you should spend some time on reading those activities why it is famous and all then it will be very easy to know I'm giving you the actually activities can be done in Jeddah on a particular day then full death tour Palace old souk Bob al-raya tap Taps hurt mall then al-hada Mountain Al Safa Mountain that is called jabal the kajabal in Arabic calls Mountain then Rose fragments oil factory and Rose farm it is this is very famous Rose farm and this one fragrance Factory of altaf after that from Jeddah One Day Tour can be we can do for Makkah tour with lunch but only for Muslims but here the Visa some issues will come because from the tourist visa you cannot go for this tour but this can be done from Jeddah also to to Makkah people can go to makata Muslims and do tawaf and all visit the holy mosque and come down and yet that I have explained so so if suppose I am somebody my customer said that I would like to go only Jeddah for four days so how we should make the itinerary of Jeddah ah I have given this all this Flipkart as per the sequence so day one suppose arrival engine the optional either food tour night tour Day Tour what I will do I will either I will what I will do as per the actually guest requirement either half day the SideSync 2 or full day side seeking out of this will be done so two days is there now third if that guest would like to go for Desert Safari and all we can include out of these three only one desert Safari if not what we will do we can give the third day trip to Uber Beach tour or even by the island if they need Adventure like in the uh Adventure trips and all this can be done or alwava Crater or tap means one two three out of these three we can say that which one the guest will actually would like to go we can include the third day and the fourth day will be the departure in this way if you remember this 14 trip cards of Jeddah you can be able to easily make the itinerary only for Jeddah no Riyadh Riyadh also we have 15 Trick cards here now the same thing you can see Riyadh happened to four hours then comes Riyadh full day historical tour six to seven hours now in Riyadh half day tour we can cover national museum of Saudi Arabia murabba Palace in four hours and then Riyadh full day tour national museum of Saudi Arabia National Museum Park the Hall of uh King abdulaziz traditional Saudi market and al-masmak this is this takes six seven hours then Riyadh full day City Tour option one and option two there are different options you see real full day historical tour it's related to history of Riyadh so we have called This is a historical tour and in full day City Tour these two options can be either this or this one also can be done so basically two three four out of these three only one trip cut on a particular itinerary we can include now option one here we have given City Tour historicals Kingdom Tower Kingdom Aya Kingdom Tower or mamlaka Tower Sky Bridge the AL Raji Grand Mosque and the kingford National Library this can be covered in eight hours in the same way the option two is like historical deria must make Fortress and murabba Palace can be covered in eight hours it depends on the guest I have to ask that which would you like to go like would you like to go historical tour see the historical tour of Riyadh or these two options you can give on the uh depending on the guest choice you can bring the strip cut to your itinerary now modern Riyadh and entertainment tour is also another one kfd fun and entertainment shopping and city sightseeing so there are many attractions and I mean different type of combinations you can do and make a good day trip for the guest so here we have given one two three four full day different type of size six out of this anyone you can include in the Italy and this comes as a preference like if somebody is coming to Riyadh for the first thing it is always recommended to give this out of this for any one to First now again Riyadh Knight tour and futur again somebody is arriving at Riyadh transferred to hotel it is always better to give an option like an optional tour night tour and food tour it depends on the guest if they would like to take this tour is possible I have given here that Riya nituri is not like a real half day too you see what is the activities we can do Riyadh winter Wonder World the ice rink the horror tent Kingdom Tower Sky bridge and Riyad Boulevard so night tour is different from the day tour of Riyadh so give it as an optional we should always give different options to our guests while building an itinerary a tour plan the most important actually sightseeing point is Edge of the World in Riyadh it is very famous and it's a must-see actually attraction when he was staying at Mayas for two nights if you are staying in Riyadh for two nights or three nights edge of the world it's a must see it's an eight hour tour can be done after that full day this is also one of the top attractions while staying in Riyadh original apsar Lake Ibrahim Palace mosque and sukh Al uh then Riyadh red sand dunes desert Safari four hours can be done this option is also there in Riyadh then Village tour for eight hours it takes alkara Hills it's a UNESCO heritage site the this uh the vehicle cause the transport cost is high little while visiting there where this is a basically not an eight hour store it takes 10 hours even 11 hours from Riyadh to complete this the entire alkara Hills and javatha tour heat cap2 is also one of the option five for five six hours is there then Triad a Riyadh Wildlife Park tour original Wildlife Park tour can be done for 4 hours so in Riyadh we find these are the following different attractions and out of this attractions we can easily make a good itinerary depending on the night stay how many nights one is going to stay and how to build an itinerary for that to bring the attractions I am sure this will make your work very easy and understand how to build the itinerary while people are staying for two nights in Riyadh if two nights in Riyadh okay one night they will come and stay optional night to a foot to the second night Riyadh full day sizing tool if it's a first timer and suppose somebody's already is telling you oh I have seen the Riyadh full day I have seen the we are full recipe tour show me something else then you can suggest okay fine go to edge of the world if you also know I have seen age of the world also then there are other options or you can say yes sir you go to alkara Hill and see UNESCO world heritage so there are many options we find in Riyadh to make a perfect itinerary I told you the top three destinations at the moment what we find in Saudi Arabia is you can see the most famous and the world heritage site is hey gray and Madan Salah tour it's a six hours tour from al-ula okay why it is called the place yeah Salim is prophet in Islam it's called peace be upon him in this particular area when those people were is staying there there is a history and why I am telling you I'll tell you about it those days thousand years I don't know how many years but thousand more than three of many thousand years ago when when the people were staying there God has sent a prophet called Saleh and he came and gave a message to all those guys who are staying to come away forbid stay away from all the things and adopt the right path but those communities were very stubborn and they never actually listened the prophet rather they made mockery they used to laugh at the prophet so at last what happened this entire area was destroyed we can say God has destroyed the entire community nobody left now how the Muslims came to know about this place once upon a time when Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him when he was traveling this place with his companion he told his companion not to stay here and cross the place very fast don't stay because once upon a time the Wrath of the almighty Allah has come here I told you because when you are making an itinerary for al-ula and suggesting for Madame Salah particularly if the customer is a Muslim better to include to them for al-hula detour Wadi aldisha but if they would like to go to al-madin Salah to see this place definitely you can give it to them this is the history of Madan sale and now this place is one of the actually world heritage it's a famous tourist attraction of Saudi Arabia at the moment so that's why I have given this place number one in alola it's a six hours after that there is another option alsoor from Allah you can do from Jeddah and Madina also can be done suppose someone is staying in Jeddah from Jeddah also One Can Do al-oulade tour and from Madina also it can be done it's a long tour it will take time not an or eight hours only it may take time it will be 10 11 12 hours also but this alola day tour can be done now in alola DeTour the attractions can be covered elephant rock the ark shuttle mag Gallery means Mountain I told you Resort and Old Market is this is also seven and eight hours full day trip you can see Wadi aldisha is also very famous these are the two things very famous this is another tour that takes 10 hours minimum to cover to go to the Wadi al-tisha and come back this is we can say it's an open Air Museum this is the eight hour store we can do it from alola then half day Old Town Market or town experience can be done where alula Castle you can see exploring alula Old Market Streets then the the cultural activities you can see handicraft stores then spend some time for The Local Foods and all but this is just a half day too and then adventure activities we found we find that in alola alola in hot air balloon also adventure activities we find in alola full day of a historical when people will go to abha can be done from either from Jeddah to fly flight one can go to other or if somebody would like to go to abhas I think that then by Road only then in between one has to take overnight in Al Baha and then then again back to abha to al-baha and then Jeddah so these are the five activities activities we we can be done in abha full day Abba historical Castle this is a historical tour and this is City Tour also can be done like Mad World Sada Castle eight to nine hours more or less these two tours are same here cable car is included and all otherwise more or less these two tools are same birthday Castle in half day can be covered five hours trip to Regal Alma Rachel Alma actually this trip is very famous from alhaba here jabal saw the cable car al-shah park and digital Alma Village that's why we call its eight hours food less you see this this all same but here we have included Regional Alma Village so this is a trip to rijal Alma we call it Regal Alma I told you number one and then we can include al-hawala National Park also in six hours so in abha these are the only options of sightings we find at the moment now depends on the guest actually which activities you would like to go for now tabuk from tabuk two different activities uh can be done in a full day activities can be done one is folded tabuktur where it will cover soup tawahin the al-jita mountain these are the different actually in the entire means in the tabuk you will find now you will roam around in tabuk and you will find the 10 hours tour that is called tambuk Full detour or from tabuk also one can go to aldisha two for six seven hours Alba al-baha with these ionis these ionis it's a world heritage site again so the mara in the al-baha too six seven hours can be covered the marble Village of the the end Saturday historical Market can be covered suppose if you are arriving on Saturday there then shida Village Park and almud Village so one night stay or two night maximum in uh in can be possible if someone is actually covering like if you in abha you have decides things you have done and then transferred to al-baha so that particular night you can stay on the second day folded this tour can be done and then transfer or one night also is possible in Al Baha Makkah and Madina are religious uh places of Saudi Arabia even one cannot enter into Makkah and Madina with tourist visa and only Muslims are allowed to enter in these two holy cities so when you will be in Makkah suppose when you are doing Makkah and Madina religious tool there are three different activities then the Day activities we can club we can mix and match here like Makkah Islamic historical to the two holy mosque architecture exhibition King Abdul Aziz complex for Holy Kaaba kiswa Masjid Ayesha historic vadi Fatima and Jama Museum this is a six hour tool then I can pull the tour of allur kohetur and mashar that the holy sites then it's like a cave gar means cave it's this tour actually a religious tour can be done in order to see that our Hajj is being done in these places like in Meena most so this tour means people have gone for like religious umrah only but they can go and visit these places and they can experience it okay these are the places where Hajj is during the harsh time the the Hajj is performed in that way this trip tour uh tour has been actually made a full day tour then Makkah cultural tour also can be done for six hours Haram Library Palace Makkah Museum shopping mart for six hours these are the maximum three different type of options is available in Mecca because Makkah basically people go to spend time on the Muslims go to spend time on more and more in Haram Sharif Haram sharifter that is called Kaaba to do tayyaf and to prayer and all so in between like even suppose if somebody is going Makkah for a week also he will prefer like four days to stay in the Holy mosque only one day or two day they will they will they would like to have to have this too so these are the three options available different type of like mix and match combination of the tour Madina Madina is the city of a prophet Madina is the city of prophet Muhammad so in Madina there are two options six hours till full day tour we can see one is Islamic tour like Cuba Prophet Muhammad like authentic dinner experience can be done over there and another one is full day means Mountain this is the first war is very famous in Islamic history so that mountain one can go and visit then Al Safa and rawa Wells yanbu Farms yanbu Waterfront and traditional theme type dinner dinner also included

khober is the Eastern side of Saudi Arabia and these are the side things can be done in the map and Hobart District very famously tries King Abdullah Center of world culture and museum for four hours then folded the mom and kober tour also can be done all cover Waterfront scitec Center itra again Center cultural Museum and market and the haran shopping mall 67 7 to 8 hours tour this can also be

way you can build a nice itinerary now depending on the duration of the tour suppose someone is telling I would like to stay three nights four night Riyadh two night Abba now I'm sure you can be a with those all the trip cards you can be able to easily make a complete itinerary I have also given the transfer options so from Jeddah to Riyadh from Riyadh to abha and then departure how you can make depending on the transfer card right so I don't think so now it is it is difficult to make a good itinerary for Saudi Arabia at least for this nine places what I have shown here it's very easy now if you know that activities in each places what are the activities what are the top activities after that which activities then how the transfers can be done either by Road or by air and now it's very easy to make a simple any itinerary any destination of the world I am sure apart from this why Saudi Arabia tourism we can see that the future of Saudi Arabia tourism is very bright there are many many things to see and there are many mysterious things to explore in Saudi Arabia now let me tell you this qasim region their trip in the qasim region this is basically the qasim region is called the food baskets of Saudi Arabia here these are the this al-qasim region you can go from Riyadh to Al qasim by train this is the easiest route if somebody is staying in Riyadh one can actually buy car also possible but one can visit by train also it's a 330 kilometer only the attractions of alcoholism region this one is Museum of bureda King Khalid Park and garden and burada water tower this is I'm giving you this five or six actually top attractions means especially apart from the normal conventional attraction these are the attractions you should keep it in your mind the second one is observe the Antiquity in aljaph the it's the largest modern only Farm we find there and it is in the Guinness Work World Record also we can go all job by flight from Riyadh the attractions of all job is rajajil calls zabul Castle fa natural reserves for spotting wildlife Adventure in jazan jazan also one can go by Road from Jeddah and also by flight in jazan you will find the breathtaking Beach I showed you here the jazan is there now I showed you you see gizan so the gizan is a province and jazan is a place here so breathtaking Beach beaches underwater world for Russian Island I told you about that for Russian Island right for Russian Island it said don't miss the al-qandal mangrove forest or the evocative streets of Alcazar Village hiking trail in the FIFA mountain or east of the city at jabal kahar a striking peak of Wadi lager then hell has UNESCO world heritage site where is hell we can find here hell you can see here hell District here you see after Al qasim you will find hell District you can see here okay so hell is one can go by Road from al-ula what we find there the attractions are desert The Majestic red cells the three castles Arif Fort barzan Castle and al-kisha castle then sukh and Market shopping and you can plan a day trip from hell to the summer Mountain areas for wildlife also Alba al-baha we can say that it's an endless expanses of green forest and panoramic Mountain Vistas and I must see it's totally a different Saudi Arabia if you go to al-baha there is the an Arabian Citadel and I told you this is one of the world heritage then ragathan Forest Park shida Village and a drive along kingford Mountain Pass serves up some of the best views in the al-baha how you can go al-baha the best is to go by Road from Jeddah hotels in Saudi Arabia is still I have seen that this is a bit problem in Saudi Arabia the hotels the hotelier is still they don't have the actually knowledge about giving the contracted price to the B2B agents or the dmcs I think so this culture is still not there eventually they will do it all the hotel rates are Dynamic you can get Dynamic online only so this is a challenge in getting lot and even uh if I'm not wrong the demand is high and the inventories is less in Saudi Arabia the more hotels in future it will come then I'm sure like we get uh Contracting rates from Dubai and other hotel packages destination from Saudi also we will start getting the hotel rates this is this is only one thing uh where I'm uh I can see that while making any product like floating any product is not possible easily because we don't get contracted rates from the Saudi either it's in Riyadh or Jeddah or anywhere else it's in case to case basis the hotelier Tells to take the rates on the inquiry now Transportation availability I'm not talking about the VIP Transportation Rolls Royce and all but for the common tourists for the tourists in Saudi Arabia sedan car van four into four where GNC and 15 seater is widely available in Saudi Arabia this is the in lump sum the transport availability it's plenty and the roads conditions are very good in Saudi Arabia now I'll talk about the Saudi tourist visa first of all in order to get the Saudi tourist visa what are the documents required number one passport is required and the validity of the passport should not be less than six months unconditional this is then applicants age should not be less than 16 years unless account Prime accompanied by The Guardian anybody who is less than 18 years alone cannot be able to get the tourist visa Saudi Arabia then visa application from aadhar copy pan card copy one white background photo passport size a return ticket except those coming by Road means for coming by air return ticket is required by Road you are taking the vehicle and going it's not required actually in order to get the tourist visa then I'm talking about this uh tourist visa for the Indians only then confront the hotel booking in the Kingdom the confirmation this if you get the voucher from the like the DMC uh in the voucher the hotel names and everything has will be confirmed by the DNC otherwise the hotel confirmation reservation number has to be actually provided to the Consulate of Saudi Arabia in order to get the tourist visa then travel aged insurance travel insurance is required to get the tourist visa then proof of association with the country of residence as a proof you have to provide already you're providing that aadhar card copy but if the applicant is an employee suppose you are an employee then you can one can submit the work certificate if somebody is a student like would like to take the tourist visa then the bona fide letter from the institutions College can be a can be it will serve the purpose and if you're a businessman then commercial registration or proof of business ownership like a registration certificate trade license establishment certificate can be accompanied in order to get the tourist visa bank statement treatment bank statement is required the Saudi officials would like to see the actually Financial condition whether this particular guy is capable enough to go has enough money to visit Saudi Arabia or not so three months bank statement is required and that statement should be attested by the bank with the sale you have to make sure that when you're taking your you will just take out the bank statement online and if it is without the stamp and signature of the bank officials that will not be considered so yeah that should be attested and then the last one is vs VFS cover letter with original stamp and signature these are the following 13 actually to a 12 query documents points actually it is considered in order to get get a tourist visa but still it's all on the consent of the Consulate of Saudi Arabia to give you the Visa or not the Saudi consulate may ask more documents also if he is not satisfied with the above those documents the tourist Visa charges approximately will be 18 to 20 000. it depends on the rate of exchange because this application it's in U.S dollar so it varies the U.S dollar rate of exchange varies then the so exact amount we cannot actually say that this is the exact amount but this 18 to 20 000 rupees in between 80 to 20 000 one can get the tourist visa of Saudi Arabia and this charges includes in just application fees that so the government enjoys its association between American and South Embassy actually and they take they look after this Angel's application fees then VFS service charges is also included in 18 to 20 000 travel insurance is also a travel insurance and the service fees is also included there so one if would like to actually have the update of their visa that what is happening and SMS service they require rupees 200 and Courier charges 500 this is optional depending if some this uh this is optional you would anyone would like to take the service of these two they have to pay extra the processing time average time is five to seven days in order to get the Saudi tourist visa if everything all the documents and everything is all okay one can easily get the Saudi tourist visa and five to seven days the validity of the Visa when it is issues the maximum validity I'll tell you the maximum word I am using the validity of the Visa is one year and the maximum number of number of days one can stay as a tourist is 90 days it can be multiple also entry it can be single entry Visa but all these conditions one year validity 90 days stay multiple or a single entry it's all subject to the approval of the Consulate of Saudi Arabia so the period of stay the last I told you 90 days maximum subject to the approval of the consulate this is lumps up the Visa about Saudi tourist visa apart from this now if somebody would like to go for Makkah and Madina for a religious tour then they should take either umrah Visa or Hajj Visa there are two conditions in order to go for Makkah Madina number one is one should be a Muslim number two the tourist visa will not do you have to take either umrah Visa or Hajj Visa so these two things you have to make sure when you are sending making a package for Makkah and Madina then it will be umrah visa and is a totally separate means thing during Hajj so I'm talking about the umra only also while making the package it is always suggested when you make the package an itinerary somebody is going 99 of the Muslims if they visit Makkah they will definitely go to Madina and the minimum ninth state for Makkah and Madina package should not be less than like five days four nights out of the two nights Makkah and two nights Madina until and unless if there is any specific Demand by the customers that no I would like to go only for two or three nights one night only in Madina and two nights then you can do but I'm talking about the minimum duration of Makkah and Madina tour should be two nights Makkah and two nights Madina I hope this is also clear guys now important notes on Saudi Arabia I'm sure this is also we should all know Saudi is a very safe place for travel it's a very safe place to travel in Saudi Arabia this is strictly forbidden as per the law the alcohol is forbidden gambling is forbidden nudity pork and disrespecting in any form is totally forbidden in Saudi so we should inform The Travelers that these are the important you say terms and conditions if they are okay with without alcohol they would like to go for a holiday they can go Saudi no Casino still is there you cannot go in any casino or gamble nudity is still not allowed in Saudi Park will not be available there and disrespecting in any form it's not allowed clear then as I told you no entry to Makkah and Madina on tourist visa one should have umra or Hajj visa to enter this two seats holy cities also during prayer time you will find that the markets and shops will be closed for 20-30 minutes in Saudi and it's a I can say it's a culture of these Gulf countries Arabian countries that during the afternoon period there is a rest time normally from 1 to 4 pm what we find all the markets are closed the offices are also closed and again it opens either it for 4 pm or 5 PM depends on the office and the office and markets open till nine o'clocks like that so these are the only important notes on so then Arabia we can see now some useful contacts while in Saudi Saudi ambulance 997 Ministry of Transport emergency 938 Ministry of and umra customer service is this number 966920-2814 customer protection 935 for traffic accidents 993 so the public security 989 General inquiry is 905 emergency medical council at 937 police 999 now this is all about the Saudi product training I can say so the product expert as level one if you properly remember all those things I'm sure you can be now able to build any itineraries of those nine places very easily and very efficiently and in a good manner as per the demand of the customers what is your homework remaining to become a Saudi expert level one now I will go to our company site Nexus DMC sorry this is the Saudi home page this is also the home page I'm talking about your homework guys you have to spend some time in learning anything learning never ends everybody should learn daily so these are the packages on display on Saudi Arabia and if you you should open each and every packages you should take out the time in each and open packages like this I'm talking about the overviews what is written what are the highlights written and again nicely you should read all these entire tour plans what is Edge of the World when you read this one you will come to know age of the world even if you have to read edge of the world if you find in five different packages I will suggest you read again and again in one day two days or even in two three four days if you manage to read this overview this one and all the itineraries as well as the inclusions also it is better if you just go through you will easily become a Saudi expert this is number one homework so your homework is this go through this all the packages properly read it everything and once you complete this one you yourself will realize and again if you if possible go back again this video go through once again I'm sure after that uh hardly anything will be left actually for you to make the sales for Saudi any tourism even to build the itiner or anything I'm sure apart from that also you can do more r d on all those places what I have mentioned I like that different activities and all ah how many how many like suppose the years club for which time to which time which is it is opened and all those things also slowly and steady eventually we can gain the knowledge in order to become the solving expert uh that's all guys this is all about Saudi Saudi this is level one there are many things to explore in Saudi but uh I have just uh given you this all these products and all I think so within coming three to three years uh these destinations one can the Saudi in Saudi Arabia one can be able to explore uh after three years we will see that what are the other places we can see that more are coming up in Saudi tourism okay thank you very much for spending so much time and looking this video it's in fact it's one hour 23 Minutes video but I have to record because one cannot be able to give the destination training even in one and a half hours it takes many days okay thank you very much guys
