It’s that time of the year again when everyone’s packing their bags and asking around for travel inspo. Saudis do have a set of predictable summer destinations, but this time the list has thrown a few surprises. Online travel marketplace Skyscanner has revealed the deets on the top destinations for Saudi residents this summer. Read on.

5. Hyderabad

This was unexpected, but it appears that the sizable Hyderabadi expat population here has succeeded in elevating this storied Indian city to the top 5.

4. Baku

Visa-free travel, incredible food and rich history – Azerbaijan’s Baku has become the newfound love for Saudis replacing nearby Istanbul and Tbilisi.

3. Bangkok

The two nations’ full diplomatic connections were restored earlier this year, and shortly afterward, a travel embargo was withdrawn. As a result, relations between Thailand and Saudi Arabia have been swiftly strengthening, with the latter now offering visa-waiver for Saudi nationals. The visa waiver goes into effect on July 9th.

2. London

The UK is now offering visa waivers to Saudis, so no surprise to see London making it to No.2 on the list.

1. Cairo

Surprise, surprise! Who would have thought that Cairo is the top destination for this summer for Saudi residents? Looks like Cairo’s swanky Grand Egyptian Museum will be seeing a lot of Saudi tourists this time around.
