First days in DH camp

Hi,

I would like to ask what are the first days like when you just arrive in DH camp.


Rest day, orientation, signing your tenancy, iqama, paperwork etc etc

My work location is Dhahran office and I was told I would be living in Dhahran camp.

Do they provide any type of transportation until I am able to purchase a vehicle? Are there buses in the camp?

There are buses to and from work, there are buses to the malls in the evenings and there are taxis.

Will they just place me right into my new house upon arrival? Will there be beds, pillows, blankets, etc. as a temporary solution?
 
Yes, all furniture, bed linen and towels, basic kitchenware.

What type of cars do usually they purchase there (used or new)? What models - 4 wheels or smaller cars? Will there be anybody to give me a small tour of the camp to see where I could buy groceries, etc.?

All types of car, new and used. Used are harder to find but not impossible. No pickup trucks for expats.

You’ll be assigned a buddy plus you’ll be in an intake and the people in that group frequently club together to share info, to explore.

Thanks!
