Where you board
In Sharjah you board at our office in Al Soor, near King Faisal Mosque. Arrive early with your passport, visa and e-ticket ready; our team checks your documents and your luggage goes into the hold before departure.

Arriving in Riyadh
Your coach ends its journey at the SAT station in Al Aziziyah, Riyadh. Plan your onward ride before you set off (a taxi or a ride-hailing app from the station is the simplest option) and save the address you are heading to on your phone. Send your live tracking link to whoever is meeting you so they can time their trip to the station.
Before you travel
Before you book, check that your documents are in order: a passport plus, for most nationalities, a valid Saudi visa or Saudi iqama. GCC citizens travel with their national ID, and UAE residents should keep their Emirates ID with them. Requirements are set by the Saudi authorities and can change, so confirm yours on the official Saudi visa platform or with a Saudi embassy. The border crossing involves passport checks on both sides and a customs inspection, so pack your hold bag neatly, keep valuables with you and never carry parcels for other people. A luggage allowance in the hold is included; tell us about anything extra when you book.
