    in your situation, visiting Bahrain would be better. If you are a single lady travelling, better avoid Middle East altogether - they oogle at ladies and approach them inappropriately.

No, not unless you have family there, are a student, are a muslim on the pilgramage. If you have an israeli passport, you are not allowed. Go to the site below for more information. http://www.saudiembassy.net/Travel/VisaIntro.asp

All posters here are correct; Saudi Arabia is not open to tourists, because the Islamic fundamentalist Wahabis who control the country's religion see the tourist industry as a source of sin and imoral behavior, so they do not allow it. For all intents and purpuses the country is a well oiled police state and a prison.

1)There is no tourist visa offered in Saudi Arabia at this time. Saudi Arabia is not a tourist destination. It is the birthplace of prophet Muhammad(Salla Allahu alahi Wa Salaam). 2)No one can get a tourist visa. 3)Women can not enter Saudi Arabia without a mahram(Male guardian) and they need a sponsor in Saudi Arabia to get a visa. A sponsor is her male employer, her husband, or her husband's male relatives. 4)Women can not get a tourist visa or any visa without their mahram's permission. And he has to sign a form giving his permission. A mahram is her husband, 14 year old sons, father, father in law, uncles, grandfather, sons sons, sisters sons. If she is divorced she must get her ex husband to give his permission for her to enter Saudi Arabia. 5)Non Muslims can not enter Makkah or Medina. There are guards posted at all entrances and they check your Iqama to see if your a Muslim or not. If your really stupid and want to try entering Makkah or Medina, you'll find yourself in jail for 6 months and then deported right back to your homeland. 6)Anyone born in Israel, or has an Israeli passport or Israeli visa on their passport is forbidden from entering the Kingdom. 7)Again if you try to sneak into Makkah or Medina you'll be arrested, thrown in jail for 6 months at the least, and then deported back to your home country. It is virtually impossible for Kaafur to enter the holy cities as they are guarded day and night and they will check you to make sure you are Muslim. Makkah and Medina ARE NOT TOURIST SITES FOR KAAFURS! 8)As I've stated before you can't enter without a male realative and a sponsor. Yes you'd be required to wear the Abaya in public. All women regardless of citizenship are required to wear the Abaya. Otherwise you'll get in trouble with the Muttaween(religous police) and thrown in jail. 9)Saudi does NOT offer tourist visas at this time. 10)There are no tourist visas in saudi.
