Total Cost of the Holiday or Visit:
Do consult the travel agent regarding their refund policy. An unforeseen event may lead to
cancellation of your trip or holiday. If this happens, it always helps if you can get the
money back.
Traveling with Family:
If you are traveling to Saudi Arabia with spouse and children, the travel insurance must
cover them. Therefore, it always helps to be informed before starting your journey and buy
the right travel insurance package.

I am an Irish citizen and I want to travel to Saudi Arabia as a tourist later this month. There seems to be several websites that offer a Saudi Visa online. Please can you recommend one website; I will travel to Saudi for 3 weeks and need a single entry. Thank you.
