No, free roaming in Saudi Arabia is not typically offered with standard EU, UK, or US mobile plans. The 'Roam Like At Home' rules don't extend to Saudi Arabia for EU plans, and both UK and US providers consider it an international destination, meaning high charges for your group's data, calls, and texts. Whether you're exploring Riyadh or Jeddah, relying on your home SIM could lead to a very expensive bill. Triply offers a much more cost-effective and convenient way for your whole crew to stay connected.
