Khamis Mushait Vacation Packages
Those holidaymakers who have a little more time in Saudi Arabia, can hit the road and discover other great villages, towns and cities in the vicinity.
If the weather makes you want to stay indoors, plan to spend some of your time in Western Province's history museums. Western Province is popular for its range of old towns; these are often evocative testaments to the area's rich history.
Watersports are a popular pastime here. Don't miss the opportunity to go swimming or scuba diving; this area has some great spots.
A great way to reveal the true spirit of a place is by exploring the cafés and restaurants in the area. Try something off the menu and strike up a conversation with local residents. Mutabbaq (stuffed pancake) and mabshour (meatballs with rice and yoghurt) are are two perennial favorites with vacationers and locals.
Don't forget, if you plan to be in Khamis Mushait around the 23rd of September, Unification of the Kingdom will be observed then and banks, business and some attractions may not be open.
If you plan on arriving and departing by air, take into account that the nearest major airport is Sanaa International Airport, 220 miles (354 kilometers) to the southeast of Khamis Mushait.
