Riyadh:
During a recent meeting, Pakistani national Kashan Syed was recognized for being the first Pakistani to obtain a Commercial Registration (CR) under Saudi Arabia’s tourism sector — a milestone achievement that highlights both his personal dedication and Pakistan’s growing presence in the Kingdom’s tourism landscape.
Kashan Syed had earlier secured the registration for his company, “Saudi Tourism – Dare to Discover,” becoming the first Pakistani entrepreneur to formally enter Saudi Arabia’s tourism industry.
With over 20 years of experience in off-roading, adventure tours, and exploration, Kashan has introduced people from various nationalities — including British, American, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and others — to the Kingdom’s hidden natural and desert destinations.
This achievement aligns with Saudi Vision 2030, supporting the Kingdom’s vision of expanding tourism, promoting cultural exchange, and encouraging entrepreneurship. Kashan’s success serves as a symbol of the deepening partnership between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan in the creative and tourism sectors.
