A wellness resort set within an 8-hectare thermal park in the beautiful landscape of Northern Italy, it is part of a private Italian healthcare group with over 50 years experience and specialises in preventative medicine and longevity.

The capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh is a bustling financial hub at the centre of the country. The city’s modern dizzying skyline towers over the desert plateau but is also home to a fascinating past as shown in the imposing Masmak Fortress.

Nearby is the region of Diriyah, Saudi’s first capital, which is home to the UNESCO World Heritage site of At-Turaif, a carefully restored mud-brick district. A living museum truly brings this extraordinary history to life.

And the perfect place to end our adventure through this remarkable country.

The desert terrain of Saudi Arabia is truly breathtaking.

From the ancient tombs of Hegra to the modern art installations of Desert X, the landscape transcends time.

Desert X explores the themes of mirage and oasis, bringing artists from around the world to create jaw dropping moments in the most surprising of locations.

While Wadi Al Disah, the Valley of the Palm trees is an incredible oasis surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs, a draw for hiking, camping under the stars and family picnics.

The desert is full of vitality in unexpected ways and should be part of any middle eastern itinerary.

Travelling deep into the desert you travel deep into the past. Accompanied by our storyteller, we visited the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hegra.

Hegra is home to over 100 well-preserved tombs, carved intricately into the rockface thousands of years ago. The resting place of the elite members of an ancient civilisation, the tombs are a true wonder of the world.

Explore the region in a vintage Land Rover for a real sense of adventure, or take a luxury air-conditioned coach for a more comfortable experience!

We finished the day at Okto viewpoint, where we ate a meal surrounded by bonfires, while watching the sun set over the ancient landscape.

A night in the desert…

A short flight from Jeddah is the AlUla desert region. Due to open later this year, our first stop was at the Banyan Tree. Located in an eco-tourism region, the hotel is comprised of tented villas, which open onto private plunge pools and the wide open desert landscape beyond.

In AlUla surrounded by ancient rock formations are the villas of Shaden resort. Centred around a vast pool and lounge complex the hotel marries dramatic landscape with modern luxury.

Nestled within the walls of ancient canyons sits the luxurious but sustainable villas of Habitas AlUla. From mountain biking and camel riding to yoga overlooking the landscape and spa treatments in their Thuraya wellness studio, Habitas offers an immersive desert experience.

Oracle Journeys can plan breathtaking itineraries through this ancient landscape.

Predating both Islam and Christianity, Jeddah’s history spans millennia.

On the edge of the Red Sea, Jeddah is Saudi Arabia’s largest city after Riyadh and a gateway to the holy city of Mecca, welcoming pilgrims for thousands of years through its port.

Al-Balad, its beautiful Old Town and a designated UNESCO World Heritage site is full of bazaars, souks and extraordinary buildings made out of colourful coral.

Jeddah has so much to offer those looking for adventures across the Middle East: luxury hotels like provide a restful base. While the city’s incredible history, brought to life in museums like the Tayebat, food and architecture make it a key part of any itinerary.

Encompassing breeding, education, and research through to training and racing, the centre has world class facilities and standards of welfare.

From there we toured the Education City Mosque and Qatar National Museum. We stopped for lunch on top of the museum, with incredible views over the skyline.

European Travel Commission urges EU Governments to follow EASA & ECDC Guidelines, lift Quarantines and restore mobility inside and outside the EU. According to EASA and ECDC, travellers should not be considered as a high-risk population for spreading COVID-19. Based on the latest scientific evidence and information, the report indicates that the prevalence of COVID-19 among travellers is estimated to be lower than is the case for the general population. What is your opinion on that?

It was so beautiful to explore the woods early in the morning with its unique colours and shades.
Thanks so much for making Barbara the queen of truffles!

Argentina has reopened its borders for the entry of tourists from neighboring countries like Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Bolivia and Chile. The traveler needs a prior presentation of a negative PCR for coronavirus, a legal declaration filled out electronically and a health insurance with coverage of cases of covid-19.

The reopening is restricted to air borders. In the case of Uruguayans, there is an exception: they can also do it through the Port of Buenos Aires. For now, tourists can only stay in the city of Buenos Aires, without moving to other parts of the country.

It’s the regional tourism warming up to get back to its track. And good news for our REMOTE Latin America members in the country.
