I don't know where the author of the article gets the idea outsiders need "armed escorts". I am a US citizen and have been working in Dammam for two months now. Although the city is bustling and a little chaotic I have not experienced any need for armed gaurds. I use taxis for transportation. Perhaps one may want to use escorts if they were going to a remote location, but this is only speculation. However I would not reccomend SA as a desirable vacation spot unless one had a specific place or event that they were wanting to visit.
