Jeddah, Saudi Arabia is the biggest city on the Red Sea and it may also be the most expensive — but just how far does your money go in Saudi Arabia in 2025? To put the Saudi city to the test, I visited with $100 (375 Saudi Riyal) to spend. So join me in exploring everything from Jeddah's old town of Al Balad to the Red Sea beaches, and Al Baik's famous (not) fried chicken to a men's luxury experience like no other.
