I went to Dubai and Abu Dhabi some 5 or 6 years ago. Beautiful cities, excellent food and museums. I swore I would never go again just because of the facade of ostentatious opulent wealth on top of a massive complex network of definitely-not-slavery-because-that-would-be-illegal. I have every reason to believe SA has the same definitely-not-slavery problem. Also, I am an unabashed heretic, and (if I understand correctly, strictly speaking) an apostate, since I have read and understood subsequently rejected significant portions of al quran, and religious apostasy laws are still on the books, even if they are seldom enforced. I will not be visiting SA despite your otherwise excellent suggestion.
