The Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage (SCTH) and news and events website Eye of Riyadh recently signed an agreement to promote local tourism in support of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 plan.
“Our confidence in Eye of Riyadh is what motivated us to choose them to be our media partners,” Abdullah Mataen, a tourism official at SCTH, said in a statement. He added that the SCTH will rely on Eye of Riyadh’s expertise in marketing, media and advertising to boost efforts to promote tourism in the Kingdom.
