It's a nightmare for single women (I just leave the country for holidays--far easier lol).  For a guy, much easier.  There are buses for long distances and a train runs between Riyadh and Dammam.  You might also consider renting a car.

Thanks Allie :)
However, is it safe for a woman to travel alone?

To major cities, it's safe (safest being flying) but a royal P-I-T-A  since you can't be sure you'll even get out of the airport without a mahram  :mad:

OMG it's scary!

Yes, they have sand dunes. Thousands sq.km.
Safari is on your own.
