About the Tour:
WAC Houston is proud to be visiting Saudi Arabia again in 2023! Join us as we travel the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and experience an array of sights and the warm hospitality on offer. This year’s exciting itinerary includes the recently rediscovered city of AlUla, a storied land steeped in historical, geological and geographical significance. Known as The World’s Masterpiece, magic is hidden in the canyons and history written on the walls; the past, present and future become one in this desert oasis dotted with date palms. Other exciting activities include a Briefing at the U.S. Embassy, Murrabba Palace in Riyadh, Contemporary Art at Naila Art Gallery, and more. Incredibly dynamic and scenic, Saudi Arabia is the trip of a lifetime for some with seemingly endless sand dunes, palm-shaded oases, dramatic mountaintops, winding backstreets and colorful spice markets. This is one trip you won’t want to miss!
