Overview
Take a trip to Tabuk on your Saudi Arabia vacation.
The region of Tabuk stretches along the Egyptian and Jordanian borders in the northwest. Known for its red mountains, rocky deserts, and moderate climate along the waters of the Red Sea, Tabuk has been a key settlement for over 5,000 years. During World War I, its waystations along the Hejaz Railway were central to the Arab Revolt. Respite being modestly populated in the past, the region continues to grow, mostly in the capital city of Tabuk. Nowadays, the region is perhaps best known as the site of the futuristic development of Neom, which is currently under construction and expected to be completed by 2039.
