Saudi Arabia

Desert sands cradle holy cities, November to March cools the Arabian heart

The best time to visit Saudi Arabia is between November and March, when cooler days soften Riyadh’s bustle and desert sands. With 20°C to 25°C weather, it’s great for exploring Al Rajhi Mosque, hiking the Edge of the World, or wandering Jeddah’s old town. For milder heat, try October or April.
