With car and van hire in King Khalid International Airport T1, you'll soon realise that Riyadh is a very easy city to navigate. This is a modern city with a clear grid layout. Two roads you should be aware of are King Fahad Road, which runs north-south, and the North Ring Road, which runs east-west. These are the city's main arteries and will be very helpful when you are travelling to different areas around Riyadh.

King Khalid International Airport primarily serves the city of Riyadh in Central Saudi Arabia. If you are planning a longer road trip that will take you to other parts of the country, this won't be a problem. Saudi Arabia has an excellent network of well-maintained highways connecting all its cities. For example, Routes 40 and 80 will take you to Dammam. This journey is 400 km, but there are smooth, excellent road surfaces all the way. The only thing to keep in mind is that distances in Saudi Arabia can be very long between cities, so plan your trip carefully.
