Why this trip
Coral-stone houses with wooden balconies, the harbour on the Red Sea and a sense of openness: over the centuries Jeddah developed as a gateway for pilgrims to Mecca. For many Muslims the city is therefore also a place of reflection. The old town of Al Balad is on the UNESCO list and can be explored on foot. The Beit Nassif Museum is one of the historic houses in which you can see the construction style.
On the Corniche stands King Fahd's Fountain, a fountain visible from afar, and the Fakieh Aquarium suits children. The Red Sea is a destination for divers and snorkellers. There are no hotels with ratings from the data list, so you choose accommodation according to your wishes and prayer times. Saudi Arabia is alcohol-free, and clothing stays conservative.
The best travel time runs from October to April, and the flight time is about 6 hours. AlUla, Red Sea Global and Riyadh are the neighbours. For the visa, the country information names eVisa or visa on arrival and points to a check before the trip. An Umrah trip is a topic of its own, which a video call clarifies separately.
