Question 1

What is the currency in Dammam?

Accepted Answer

Dammam’s currency is the Saudi riyal (SAR). There are 100 halalas in each riyal. For any day trips or overnight stays outside Dammam it’s a good idea to carry riyals, as some hotels and shops may not accept credit cards.

Question 2

What should I do in Dammam?

Accepted Answer

Experience life in the desert, Bedouin style. A camel ride across the sands will lead you to a luxurious campsite where you can sleep under the stars. If you prefer the home comforts of your hotel room, a desert safari will see you zipping across the dunes in a 4×4 and have you back in the city by nightfall.

Question 3

What food is Dammam known for?

Accepted Answer

Fly to Dammam for authentic Saudi flavours like murtabak, a folded vegetable pancake, or laban – a refreshing yoghurt drink that’s ideal for Dammam’s hottest days. Try seafood at a local restaurant too and enjoy freshly-caught fish.
