Saudi travelers' movement this year has experienced a significant shift from international travel to domestic tourism. Domestic trips within Saudi Arabia accounted for 46% of total bookings during the first seven months of 2026, with increasing demand for destinations such as Mecca, Medina, Taif, and some areas like Al-Ula and the Red Sea, which saw a noticeable rise in overnight stays thanks to hotel expansions and improved access. Meanwhile, travel to international destinations like Dubai has dropped by up to 90%. Saudis are increasingly interested in new destinations in Egypt, Greece, and Shines, while continuing to prefer high-rated hotels. There has also been a substantial rise in reliance on digital payment methods. Despite regional tensions, local tourism has maintained its growth, with an increase in both the number of tourists and their spending.
