Hi, I am joining Aramco soon from the UK and am a little concerned because I cannot find any photos/videos of the insides of the apartments/houses anywhere online, given the size of the camp and how long it has been there this is ringing alarm bells especially as I am a single female relocating. Is it against Aramco policy to share images of the accommodation? Also I have been assigned Mango Block in The Hills, is it possible to walk to the office from there? Is there a pedestrianised route? Thanks so much

Thanks so much You can see few house tours available in Youtube for family houses. usually you wont find much for bachelor housing. there are lot of different designs in Aramco as well. With regards to commute, do you know which office you will be working for? this will help others to answer.

The company has never published photos of the community, there is nothing nefarious about it, it’s private and historically for security. As a single woman, this is probably going to be the safest place you’ve ever lived, on or off camp.
It is pedestrianised and is a very popular walk in cooler months and in the evenings.Distance, however, depends on where you live (mango/mint is quite big) and where you work.

Thanks so much Photography and videos are not allowed on residential camp. There are signs when you go via security that state this. Having said that, there's an integrated bus system for work commutes.

Hi,
I moved in couple of days ago at the mango circle. Is there any whatsapp group for mint/mango people? Thanks!
