Riyadh: Saudi Arabia recorded a historic rise in tourism in 2025, welcoming approximately 123 million domestic and international visitors, marking a 6 percent increase from the previous year. According to the Ministry of Tourism, this growth reflects the rapid expansion of the Kingdom’s travel and hospitality sector under Vision 2030. Officials highlight that improved infrastructure, enhanced hospitality services, and expanded travel options are transforming Saudi Arabia into a major global tourist destination. Analysts note that the tourism sector is now emerging as a key driver of economic diversification, supporting non-oil development and providing employment opportunities across the country. Can sustained investment in tourism solidify Saudi Arabia’s position as a global travel hub?
