Saudi Arabia’s Diriyah has been named one of the Global Eco-Friendly Destinations for 2025 by the British travel platform Wanderlust, which annually highlights leading destinations committed to sustainable tourism.

The recognition stems from a joint effort between the Saudi Tourism Authority and the Diriyah Gate Development Authority, which submitted a comprehensive nomination highlighting Diriyah’s initiatives in environmental, cultural, and tourism sustainability.

Chief Executive Officer and Board Member of the Saudi Tourism Authority Fahd Hamidaddin stated that Diriyah’s selection underscores the Kingdom’s growing commitment to sustainability in tourism.

“This recognition is a testament to our strategy of empowering local partners and showcasing national destinations in international markets,” he said. “It further solidifies Saudi Arabia’s position on the global tourism map as the fastest-growing destination in the world.”

Chief Executive Officer of the Diriyah Gate Development Authority Jerry Inzerillo said: “This international recognition highlights Diriyah’s role as the cradle of the Saudi state and our dedication to preserving its heritage while applying the highest environmental and cultural sustainability standards.”

“We value the continued collaboration with the Saudi Tourism Authority, which is instrumental in promoting Saudi destinations on the world stage.”

The recognition reaffirms the Kingdom’s expanding global presence in tourism, driven by Vision 2030. The Saudi Tourism Authority continues to support its partners across the tourism ecosystem, aligning efforts to meet ambitious national targets.

In 2024, the Kingdom welcomed approximately 116 million visitors and remains on track to reach its goal of hosting 150 million visitors by 2030. This growth is supported by significant infrastructure investments and vibrant tourism seasons featuring hundreds of immersive experiences and partnership opportunities.
