The best time to visit Saudi Arabia depends on the kind of adventure you are looking for. Different times of the year attract different types of travellers. Here are some pointers to help you make a decision.

Winter (December to March):

This is widely regarded as the best time to visit the Arabian Peninsula as you can escape the dry heat which is prevalent throughout the rest of the year. This is the best time to partake in adventure sports and outdoor activities.

Autumn (September-December):

This time of the year experiences a low number of tourists. Although still quite warm for most people, this is a good time to explore the country without too much rush.

Spring (March-June):

Much like Autumn, Spring is also generally quite hot for most tourists. However the crowd is very thin during these months.

Summer (June-September):

These are the hottest months in the year and often too much for foreigners to bear. However, if you can battle it out, then you can witness the Saudi's excellent hospitality. But, be careful as to not partake in extreme adventure sports during these months as it might lead to unforeseen circumstances.
