Saudi Arabia topped the United Nations tourism list in the growth of the number of international tourists in 2023 compared to 2019 for major tourist countries, as the Kingdom achieved a 56% increase in the number of tourist arrivals in 2023 compared to 2019, according to the Barometer report issued by the United Nations Tourism in January 2024.

The report also indicates that the Kingdom achieved a recovery of 156% in the number of tourist arrivals during the year 2023 compared to 2019.

The Kingdom’s notable achievements in the tourism sector have led the Middle East to the global recovery in tourism, as the only region to achieve growth beyond pre-Covid-19 levels, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).

The recovery rate in the number of international tourists reached 122% in the Middle East in 2023 compared to 2019.
