DIRIYAH

Diriyah is a mega mixed-use development, spread over 14 sq km, and built on the outskirts of Riyadh adjacent to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of At-Turaif that was home to the royal family that ruled the First Saudi State.

Giga projects such as Diriyah are crucial to the kingdom’s plans to diversify its economy away from oil – the fact notwithstanding that state-owned Saudi Aramco, recently reported a record profit of US$161 billion which is the highest-ever annual profit recorded by any oil and gas company. Although Saudi Arabia’s oil economy is thriving, it is now determined to diversify and open itself up to the world – especially tourists and visitors.

BLACKLANE

Blacklane has reinvented ride services by connecting travelers with a global crew of professional chauffeurs, and we’re not stopping there. Our vision of the future of travel is seamless, sustainable, and ethical. Join us on our journey to make top-quality service convenient and accessible worldwide.

Founded in 2011 by Jens Wohltorf and Frank Steuer, Blacklane created a smarter way to book and manage rides — something affordable, reliable, and efficient. Since then, Blacklane has grown from a two-man operation in Germany to an international, award-winning crew of over 300 people with hubs in Singapore, Spain, the U.A.E., the U.K., and the U.S.

We work with independent local chauffeur service providers around the world, and through our tech, allow global travelers to book rides with them. We do not provide, own, or control any of the rides offered by these providers, but rather facilitate them. Prices are calculated based on factors including vehicle class, distance, and drive time, and our margin comes from selling those rides to independent local chauffeur service providers, typically via our auction where they can choose the rides that best fit them.
