Booking platforms that sell Saudi experiences across regions, seasons and cities.

Codeeo delivers tourism booking website development in Saudi Arabia for tour operators, destination companies, experience sellers and travel agencies that want to take bookings and payment online across the Kingdom. Desert camps near AlUla, heritage visits in Diriyah, mountain stays in Asir, diving on the Red Sea coast, oasis trips in Al Ahsa and events in Riyadh each run on different seasons and resources. We build one booking platform that handles them all, Arabic first, with Saudi payments and ZATCA e-invoicing built in.

Tourism in the Kingdom has opened fast since the tourist eVisa, and buyers now include residents on a long weekend, GCC families and international visitors. A direct booking platform lets you sell to each of them on your own terms, keep the customer relationship and see which regions and products truly earn.

What a national booking platform includes

One platform for many destinations, rules and buyers.

A single city operator can manage with a simple calendar. A business selling across the Kingdom cannot. Winter is the high season in AlUla and Riyadh while summer brings visitors to the cooler highlands of Asir and Taif. Some products run on your own vehicles and guides, others on suppliers you contract in each region. Corporate clients want invoices with their VAT number, international guests pay with foreign cards, and residents expect mada and instalments.

The capabilities below are what national operators ask us for most often. We decide the right set in discovery and build them on a single data model, so availability, pricing, payments and invoices stay consistent whichever region a product belongs to. Reports then compare regions, channels and seasons on the same terms, which is what you need when deciding where to grow next.

Explain your project
  • Region and season catalogue

    Products are organised by region, city and theme, from heritage and desert to sea and mountains, with season windows that open and close sales automatically. Guests browse by destination or by date, and see only experiences that actually run when they travel. Each product page carries the practical detail visitors need, such as meeting point, duration, what to wear and how far it is from the nearest airport.

    A clear catalogue that grows as you add regions.

  • Supplier portal and contracted inventory

    Local partners such as camp owners, boat operators and guides in each region log in, manage their own availability and confirm bookings. You set net rates and your margin, and the platform records Ministry of Tourism licence details for each supplier with renewal reminders. Suppliers see only their own bookings and payouts.

    Regional supply you can sell without phoning each partner.

  • Saudi payment stack

    Tourism online payment integration in Saudi Arabia through a SAMA licensed gateway: mada, Apple Pay, STC Bank, Visa and Mastercard, Tabby and Tamara for instalments, and SADAD or bank transfer for corporate and institutional invoices. Amounts are charged in riyals, with reference prices in other currencies for visitors.

    Every type of buyer can pay the way they expect.

  • ZATCA e-invoicing integration

    Bookings generate e-invoices through a Fatoora integrated system that meets the integration phase requirements, with simplified invoices for consumers, tax invoices for companies, credit notes for refunds and correct VAT treatment for commission and supplier sales. Invoice numbering and QR codes are handled by the system rather than by staff.

    Invoicing that keeps up with volume and audit.

  • Multi city operations dashboard

    Head office sees bookings, revenue, capacity and issues across every region in one view, while each city team sees its own departures, manifests and guides. Permissions follow your organisation chart, not a single shared login. Alerts flag departures that are under minimum numbers in time to merge or cancel them fairly.

    Central control without slowing local teams.

  • Hijri and Gregorian dates

    Calendars, confirmations and invoices show both calendars where it helps, and seasonal rules can follow Ramadan, Eid and school holidays as they move each year. The Friday and Saturday weekend is reflected in pricing and staffing rules.

    Dates make sense to every Saudi customer.

  • Corporate, school and group bookings

    Companies booking retreats, schools booking trips and associations booking group visits submit a request, receive a quote and pay a deposit online. Participant lists, dietary needs and approvals are collected in one place, with invoices carrying their VAT and commercial registration numbers. Approvers at the client company can sign off a booking online before payment is taken.

    Large orders handled through the site rather than email.

  • Channel and distribution links

    Inventory can be shared with resellers, hotel desks and online travel agencies through their APIs or a channel manager, so a seat sold elsewhere disappears from your site at once. Each channel carries its own rates and commission rules. Rates for each partner are managed from the same admin as your direct prices.

    Sell widely without double bookings.

  • Privacy, security and data location

    Consent, privacy notices and data subject requests are built to the PDPL as overseen by SDAIA, including the rules on transferring personal data outside the Kingdom. Security controls follow NCA guidance, and hosting location is agreed during discovery.

    Guest data handled the way Saudi law expects.

  • Arabic first content management

    Your team edits products, regions, prices and pages in Arabic and English from one admin, with right to left layouts checked on every template. Additional languages can be added for key markets without rebuilding pages. Search friendly addresses and structured data are generated for every product in both languages.

    Content stays current across both languages.

Who this is for

Four kinds of Saudi tourism business we build for.

National tourism businesses come in different shapes: a Riyadh agency expanding into the regions, a destination company with its own assets, a marketplace of local suppliers, or a travel company moving from phone sales to online booking. The right platform depends on which of these you are. Discovery takes place in person in Riyadh or by video call for teams elsewhere in the Kingdom, and starts with how you sell today. Many businesses fit more than one shape, and the platform can grow from one to another.

01

Operators expanding from one city to several regions

You built a strong business in Riyadh or Jeddah and now sell trips to AlUla, Asir or the Eastern Province. Each region has new suppliers, seasons and logistics. We build a platform where adding a region means adding products and partners, not a new website, and where your city teams keep their own dashboards under one brand. Pricing, cancellation terms and content standards stay consistent from one region to the next, which protects your brand as you grow.

A new region becomes a configuration, not a project.

02

Destination and experience companies

You own or manage camps, lodges, attractions or activity sites, perhaps in more than one location. Capacity is fixed by beds, tents, vehicles or time slots. We build booking flows that sell stays and activities together, with deposits, add ons, cancellation rules and check in lists for each site. Guests who book a stay can add a guided activity or a transfer in the same checkout.

03

Travel agencies moving sales online

Most of your business comes through calls, walk ins and corporate accounts, with quotes built by hand. We put your standard products online for instant booking, keep a request and quote route for tailored trips, and give corporate clients a login with their own rates, approvals and invoices. Your agents keep working from one admin, so a phone sale and an online sale appear in the same place.

04

Platforms selling local suppliers' experiences

You want to list guides, camps and activity providers from across the Kingdom and earn commission on each booking. We build supplier onboarding with licence checks, listing approval, commission and payout tracking, reviews and dispute handling, while you remain the merchant guests see at checkout. Payouts to suppliers can follow a schedule you set, with statements they can download.

Supplier licence records are checked before listings go live.

Six steps to a national tourism booking platform.

  1. 01Discovery across regionsProducts, suppliers, seasons, channels and teams mapped region by region, with workshops in Riyadh or by video, ending in a written scope and release plan.
  2. 02Tourism booking website design for Saudi ArabiaArabic first, right to left design with English and other languages, destination pages that inspire, and a checkout built for phones and local payment habits.
  3. 03Platform and portals buildCatalogue, availability, booking engine, supplier and corporate portals, and the admin and reporting your head office and city teams use every day.
  4. 04Payments, invoicing and regulationGateway onboarding, Fatoora integration, PDPL and NCA controls, and registering the online store with the Ministry of Commerce under the e-commerce law.
  5. 05Regional pilots and testingWe launch one region or product line first, test bookings, refunds and invoices with real customers, and fix what they show us before wider rollout.
  6. 06Rollout and growthFurther regions and channels go live in planned waves, with redirects from old sites, staff training and reporting that guides where you invest next.

Technology

What we build this with.

We choose technology to fit the scale of your catalogue and team: a custom booking platform where your rules and portals are specific, or a proven commerce or headless setup extended where they are standard. Hosting location, security and integrations are agreed against PDPL, NCA and ZATCA requirements.

Questions Saudi tourism businesses ask about booking platforms.

Arabic first design, Saudi payments, e-invoicing, privacy and room for more regions.

The platform must work in Arabic with right to left layouts, accept mada, wallets and international cards through a SAMA licensed gateway, issue ZATCA compliant e-invoices and handle personal data under the PDPL. It also needs a data model that lets you add regions, suppliers and channels later without rebuilding. Planning those at the start costs far less than retrofitting them after launch. We also set up analytics and consent so you can measure bookings by region from launch.
