I went to uae last year form qatar . I can give you few details that i remember, there could be some up or down, bear that in mind.
1. Insurance: around 60-70 QR at ksa border ., around 50 qr at uae border for 7 days travel and return. If you are going for more then insurance could be more.
2. except visa - there are no charges. You should have pre arranged ksa transit visa through agent in qatar , who takes aorund 3-4 work days. it costs 150-175 qr per person.
3. yes , you can use QR everywhere, even at patrol stations of ksa n uae .. BUt its better to carry uae dirham, because the exchange rate in uae will cost you more.
depart qatar to reach at ksa-qatar border around 1-2am .. midnight, it will be less rush. keep the patrol tank to 30 percent in qatar ad fill it to max while inside KSA, its dirt cheap in saudia. Patrol pump is just a km inside ksa border. Cary cash for borders payments, they dont have card , credit etc
if females are travelling then either married to you , or your sisters , ksa wont allow gfs or females not related to you . You should have Marriage certificates of your wife.
