Saudi Arabia
- Hotspot
- 5G
Saudi Arabia opened to general tourism through an eVisa only in recent years, alongside the long-standing flow of Umrah and Hajj travellers. A lot of the practical steps happen inside government apps, from permits for the holy sites to timed tickets at heritage sites. The country is also very large: moving between cities means flying, the high-speed train, or hours of driving across desert.

A GB plan is a fixed amount of data. When it is used up, data on that eSIM stops and nothing is charged automatically, but you can top up the same eSIM without a new QR code, and check what is left any time from your order page.

Around 1–2GB a day, since government apps, maps and ride-hailing all get opened repeatedly. If you film at AlUla or stream back home, add roughly another gigabyte a day.
The main gateways are Jeddah (JED), Riyadh (RUH), Dammam (DMM) and Madinah (MED), the last being the one most Umrah travellers use. AlUla has its own airport (ULH) for domestic flights, and by land the King Fahd Causeway comes in from Bahrain. Turn the line on as you land, because immigration steps and several permits are shown from an app.
Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Makkah and Madinah are densely covered, and the Haramain high-speed line holds service along most of its route. It thins markedly in the Empty Quarter, on the long intercity stretches with no settlement, in the valleys and escarpments of the Asir mountains near Abha, and out in the desert rock country around AlUla away from the main road.

Permits and time slots are handled in the Nusuk app and shown on entry, so you want a working line from the moment you land at Madinah or Jeddah. Screenshot your permit as a backup, because when crowds peak the network slows and reloading a page can take a while.
Mostly yes, with short gaps on the open desert sections between stations. If you need an online meeting or want video on the way, download it before boarding, and save your ticket as a file or screenshot, since pulling it from the app on a weak signal can be slow.
Distances are long and some stretches run a hundred kilometres with no settlement. Download the route offline, fill up whenever you pass a station, carry spare water, and tell your accommodation roughly when you expect to arrive, because in the dead zones you will not reach anyone until the next town.
Most plans here start when the phone first connects to a network at the destination, so you can install in advance at home and switch it on after landing. Each plan page states its own rule.
No. The eSIM is a second line, so you keep your home number for SMS OTP. Turn off roaming data on the home line and set the eSIM as the data line.
