Drive & Stay Riyadh Holiday Packages

Saudi Arabia‘s capital, Riyadh, is a metropolis that skillfully combines modern wonders with a rich cultural past. Situated in the Al Murabba district close to King Abdulaziz Palace in the centre of Riyadh, the National Museum is a tribute to the history of the kingdom. This museum offers tourists an insight into the unique heritage of Saudi Arabia and is a treasure trove of artistic and historical data. The experience is enhanced by the nearby historic gem, the Murabba Palace. Located in the same Al Murabba neighbourhood, this palace offers insights into the royal history of the area while showcasing traditional Saudi architecture.

The Masmak Fort is a well-known reminder of Riyadh’s historical heritage. This mud-brick and clay castle stood testimony to the kingdom’s founding. Its part in King Abdulaziz’s 1902 recapture of Riyadh highlights its historical significance. Furthermore, travellers can fully immerse themselves in the local culture through the lively and genuine shopping experience provided by the historic Saudi market, Dira Souq. On the contemporary front, Riyadh’s skyline is dominated by the imposing Kingdom Tower and Faisaliah Tower, which stand for the city’s quick expansion. The city’s ambitions and economic strength are exhibited by these architectural marvels, which make Riyadh a vibrant and diverse travel destination.

Package Information

Following the formalities at the Riyadh International Airport, you may either pick up your car at the downtown BUDGET outlet or head directly to the car rental area at the BUDGET car rental counter. You will get the keys and be able to explore the area after the automobile formalities are completed. Travel by car to your lodging. Register at the lodging. Spend the night in Riyadh.

Breakfast at the hotel. The National Museum, the main steward of Saudi Arabia's national heritage and culture, is the place to start exploring the mysterious city of Riyadh. Your route book will offer you a plethora of suggestions for things to do while in the city. The Museum provides an overview of the history of Arabian civilization from Prehistory to the present. It is a place of study and discovery. After that, proceed to the adjacent Murabba Palace, one of the city's historic structures.

The 400 by 400-meter square that served as the palace's form gave rise to its name. Have lunch on your own in the city. In the afternoon, we recommend a mysterious trip to Riyadh, where you will see the Masmak Fort and its museum, which tells the narrative of the Al-Saud family's conquest of Arabia. The palace was constructed in 1895 A.D. during Abdullah bin Rashid's reign as a military stronghold for the Abdullah ibn Rashid army. The third Saudi Kingdom—the one we live in today—was founded when His Majesty King Abdulaziz, the father of the country, took control of the fort in 1902.

Next, proceed to the renowned Dira Souq, where one may purchase ancient carpets and other functional Saudi historical antiquities. As you stroll around, you can't help but notice the scent of sandalwood. The journey can be concluded with an amazing perspective from two of Riyadh's most well-known buildings, the Kingdom Tower and the Faisaliah Tower, both magnificent examples of modern architecture. Return to your accommodation around late afternoon. In Riyadh for the night.
