    are there any more available single rooms on this trip?

    • Explore!OperatorWritten September 2024

      Yes there is one single room available ready to book on this departure. If this goes then we can save a space on a twin share basis and request a single room allocation, however there is one single room left to book if it is needed?

      For the moment we have 8 people booked on 13 Nov departure and the age is: 46, 2 people in their 50's, 4 people in their 60's and 73. So you won't be the oldest. We will definitely visit deserts.

      Ana

      TravelerWritten June 2024

      I would like to book a single room. I'm travelling in an Aussie passport. Is there any way to go to the Yemeni island if doctors or is that just too dangerous?

    • Explore!OperatorWritten June 2024

      You may be able to travel to Yemeni Island however this is not somewhere we offer tours so this is something you will need to look into yourself.

      TravelerWritten December 2022

      please remember we would like to see Mecca and Medina, and anything else. It does not have to be this tour if the 2 cities are not included.

    • Explore!OperatorWritten December 2022

      In this tour we visit Medina but not Mecca. Mecca is accessible for Muslim tourists only. The February departure of Explore the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia tour is 7th February and I am afraid it is a planned group trip and we can not make the tour shorter.
