Hi,
I'm planning to get the SAPTCO bus from Jeddah to Riyadh in a couple of weeks time.聽 (I'm sick of flying, and need to save some money).
A couple of questions for anyone who might have taken it before:
a) Is it possible for a non-muslim to get this bus?聽 Does it take the non-muslim bypass around Mecca?

b) If anyone has taken it, what's it like generally?
Thanks in advance!
