Saudi-Arabien entdecken - Eine Reise durch den Wüstenstaat

In the organizer's words:

Traveling through Saudi Arabia was practically impossible for a long time. Dirk Schäfer was one of the first to make the journey. What he experiences on his motorcycle is beyond his imagination: megacities built for the day after tomorrow, fascinating UNESCO World Heritage Sites in epic desert landscapes on the way through the spectacular Hejaz Mountains, traces of Lawrence of Arabia, whose work 100 years ago still has an influence today, or an almost forgotten railroad line to Germany. He crosses one of the largest volcanic fields in the world and discovers enigmatic megabuildings over 7000 years old. Everywhere the curtain that lay over the land like a veil is lifted. His expedition repeatedly pushes him to the limits of his willingness to take risks, but the incredible helpfulness of the people he meets keeps him going.
