Capturing the Future of Luxury Travel:

As Saudi Arabia accelerates its vision for global tourism, TOURISE (stylized as TOURISE) has emerged as one of the most influential platforms shaping the future of travel. Led by the Ministry of Tourism, TOURISE is not just an annual summit—it is a year-round ecosystem for innovation, investment, and industry transformation.
The inaugural summit, held in Riyadh in November 2025, united global leaders, innovators, investors, and tourism pioneers to redefine what sustainable, experiential, and future-focused travel will look like.

Amid this groundbreaking event, Yaadgaar had the privilege of serving as the official content creation and media photography partner for one of TOURISE’s most iconic unveilings:

Dream of the Desert — the first ultra-luxury “Made in Italy” train designed for Saudi Arabia, a historic project by Arsenale Group, Roma.

A Vision in Motion: Dream of the Desert

At TOURISE, Arsenale Group announced the opening of pre-reservations for Dream of the Desert, a project set to redefine luxury travel in the Kingdom.

Key Highlights from the Announcement:

  • Nightly rates starting at SAR 30,000 per cabin, inclusive of all meals and curated experiences

  • Pre-reservation fee: SAR 3,000, fully redeemable or refundable

  • Early access allows guests priority booking and an invitation to the exclusive inaugural celebration

  • Expected launch: End of 2026

  • The train will offer a blend of Italian craftsmanship, Saudi heritage, sustainability, and immersive luxury

During TOURISE, Arsenale also signed two major MoUs with:

  • Tourism Development Fund (TDF)

  • Saudi Tourism Authority (STA)

These partnerships will accelerate the financing, global promotion, and distribution of Dream of the Desert—positioning it as a symbol of Saudi Arabia’s rising luxury tourism landscape.
