“‘This Land is Calling’ is a visually stunning invitation to the world, from Saudi. Developed through insights gleaned from visitors to the country, the film is an ode to the mesmerizing duality of our country’s storied past, and our ambitious future. It reflects our pursuit of perfection – a cycle of continuous learning, rooted in data, as we iterate and develop our offerings to facilitate our growth trajectory as a destination of choice for all. With this campaign, we hope to ignite the curiosity of the traveler who craves the excitement of a completely new experience – whether in culture, adventure, sport, or entertainment. Saudi has been enjoying stellar growth in demand witnessing a 73 per cent growth in the annual average of tourists from Europe and the United States, and we continue to work with local and global partners to increase and enrich our offerings, so the 150 million tourists we welcome by 2030 can truly experience the pulsating Heart of Arabia.”
