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.

Dear Sir, When people from the Middle East (South Asia) travel to live in other countries, does anyone back home tell them NOT to practice black magic overseas. Only asking the question because I am an immigrant person living in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, but experienced 2 distressing incidents of different people working black magic without my permission. One person currently lives in an apartment directly above me. I believe working black magic like this this is unlawful and dangerous. It is also disrespectful. Can you please do something at your end. Regards, Ms. Henry.
