Budget-style 7-day Beach trips from Riyadh under 7,500 SAR
On a total budget of 7,500 SAR, 7 destinations fit a 7-day trip from Riyadh with room to spare. The cheapest is Egypt, expected around 3,200 SAR for the whole trip.
This answer assumes a budget travel style, a 7-day trip and flexible dates. Budget style means simpler stays and lower day-to-day spending, so these totals come out below the mid-range pages for the same destinations. Every figure is a reference estimate from our own model, not a live fare and not a guaranteed booking price.
