Our first audio tour will explore Al Masmak Fortress, as we learn about the origins of Saudi Arabia and the Saudi Royal Family, as well as the secret tales that live in this key sightseeing spot.

These iconic key attractions are a perfect example of just how much Riyadh has changed over the past 100 years and are a clear example of why this city has become one of the most developed in the world!
