Salam Saudi | Journey Across Western Saudi
Before becoming modern day Saudi Arabia, this land consisted of four distinct historical regions: Hejaz, Najd, and parts of Eastern Arabia (Al Ahsa) and Southern Arabia (‘Asir). These regions made up the Arabian Peninsula, that over centuries have played an important role in history as an ancient trade centre, the **birthplace of one of the world’s three major monotheistic religions**, and our roots as a species.
About two-thousand years ago, the **Nabatean Empire – the most prominent civilization in the Arabian Peninsula at the time** – took control of local trade routes, developing their settlements into cities. They excelled at carving rocks made of sand, and eventually transformed the landscape on both ends of their empire into majestic metropolises.
Jordan’s Petra is typically associated with this great Empire, yet not many are aware that **Hegra, Saudi’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site**, is also a Nabatean relic, built in a climate and topography harsher than Jordan’s; making what was accomplished in Saudi seem like an engineering miracle from the past.
However, **Alula is only a part of vast Saudi landscape**, now fully open for explorations!
It’s not widely known that parts of Saudi Arabia’s landscape stretch across 2,000 dormant volcanoes dating back thousands of years. Known in Arabic as **Haraat, the lava fields** are nothing uncommon here, reaching even a **mere 8.2km away from the mosque of the Holy Prophet in Medina** – Saudi’s fourth largest city and one of the holiest.'
One of such volcanic fields is **Harrat Khaybar, spanning an area of 14,000 square kilometers**. Volcanic field was formed over the past 5 million years through eruptions along a 100-kilometer vent system.
For all its worth, we will start our expedition in Jeddah, take a sneak peek at old city, move to Medina, for quick look at Holy City before we head off to volcanoes, stretch the legs on white crater and continue to Alula, visit famous Hegra site with few stops at Elephant Rock and Arch. Given that Saudi’s tourism is still in its infancy, there is no better time to go than now, so yalla!
**Let's go!**
**DAY 1 // Jeddah + Moon Valley**
Meeting at airport at 7.30 am for a direct flight to Jeddah. Immigration clearance and head to Al-Ballad, famous for its unique architectural heritage, in particular tower houses constructed in the late 19th century by the city's wealthy merchants. The city's coastal coral building traditions, combined with influences and craftsmanship from trade routes, further add to its charm. During the tour, you will stroll through historic neighborhoods (harrat), explore ancient buildings, markets, and sights.
After lunch, we will head out of the city to Moon valley, owning its name to surreal barren rock formations, some of which appear to have been crafted by humans. Upon closer sighting, there are no signs of chisels or tools being used on these rocks. They have naturally formed over millions of years into such astonishing shapes. Sunset at the viewpoint and drive back to Jeddah for overnight.
**DAY 2 // Harrat- Madinah**
Shortly after breakfast we will leave Jeddah behind and drive through the desert northeastwards, arriving at the Al Wahbah Crater in the Harrat Kishb lava field The crater is one of the world’s most magnificent volcanic features: a vast dry maar formed by a violent phreatic eruption when magma met groundwater, producing a massive explosion. Measuring around 2.2–2.3 km in diameter and about 250 m deep, it stands out both in scale and its otherworldly beauty.
We’ll hike to the rim, taking in the dramatic views of the steep crater walls, the contrasting pale floor often blanketed in white sodium-phosphate crystals, and the stark surrounding lava field.
After our visit we will continue to Madinah for dinner and overnight stay.
**DAY 3 // Madinah + Alula**
We start with Madinah visit with the Holy Mosques, destinations for endless pilgrimages from around the world. Lunch at Old Souk of Medina, sampling some delicious local foods. In the afternoon we will set the compass on Alula, where we will arrive on time for local dinner in the old city and a visit to Elephant Rock.
**DAY 4 // Alula**
Early in the morning we will head out to explore Hegra and the nearby desert curiosities. We will not hesitate to examine the petroglyphs, before we arrive at Pink Camel for high tea. In the afternoon, we will take one last desert drive, this time heading back to Tabuuk airport to catch our flight home. Back in Dubai 22.30.
**Activities:** Trekking, sightseeing, off-roading.
**Grade:** Easy, with short but steep hike up the crater. Available to everyone.
**Rooms & Meals:** Hotels and guesthouse - double sharing. Meals excluded.
**Cost: AED 5990 AED** incl. flights **until APR 10.**
**Specifically Excluded:** meals, insurance, visa.
**Visa:** UAE RESIDENTS can now obtain **[e-visa](https://visa.visitsaudi.com)**
*It is sole responsibility of participant to secure admission to the country of destination.*

This hike is a scenic hike of 10.5 miles and 2900 ft. elevation. This is a longer hike than most of our hikes here, with more elevation. It is high A-rated, nearly an A+. Therefore, this should not be one's first A-level hike.
We'll hike up Little Devil Stairs with several stream crossings, then cross over to descend Piney Branch trail until it intersects Piney Ridge Trail. We'll then ascend 800 ft of elevation up Piney Ridge before descending again on Fork Mountain Trail to Hull School and Keyser Run fire road back to the parking lot. Be prepared for a significant stream crossing at the bottom of Fork Mountain Trail. Poles are recommended due to the stream crossings, as well as an extra pair of dry socks.
The trailhead parking is limited, so carpooling is strongly encouraged.

You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Join us for a 4-week guided series designed to help you better understand yourself, heal emotional patterns, and build more intentional, fulfilling relationships.
This is a small, supportive group experience where we explore the connection between your inner world and your relationships—with compassion, curiosity, and courage.
Each session includes:
* Guided reflection exercises
* Practical tools for real-life situations
* Thoughtful discussion (sharing always optional)
* A safe, judgment-free space
**Weekly Themes**
**Week 1: Awareness — Understanding Your Patterns**
Identify recurring relationship dynamics, emotional triggers, and attachment styles.
**Week 2: Emotional Healing — Meeting Your Inner Self**

Together we will reflect on why fear arises, how it affects our thinking and wellbeing, and how reconnecting with our deeper awareness can restore a sense of peace and resilience.
Through guided reflection, conversation, and meditation, you’ll learn simple tools to quiet the mind, strengthen your inner stability, and move forward with greater courage and clarity.
Leave feeling calmer, more centered, and empowered to face today’s world with a renewed sense of confidence and hope.
