Moving from Makkah to Madinah is the longest ride of most Umrah trips. With bags, Zamzam, elderly parents or small children, changing from taxi to station to train and back to taxi is tiring. Our Makkah to Madinah taxi service picks you up at your Makkah hotel and drops you at your hotel door in Madinah in one private car, at a fixed fare agreed before you travel. For families, it is the simplest transportation from Makkah to Medina.
The road from Makkah to Madinah is long, and after days of Umrah most families just want to sit back and arrive at their hotel without changing transport. Our Makkah to Madinah taxi fare starts at SAR 400 for a private sedan, hotel to hotel, with the price fixed before you leave. Want to visit Badr on the way? Choose the Via Badr fare and the driver stops there for you.
| Vehicle | Example | Passengers | Direct | Via Badr |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Sedan | Toyota Camry / Hyundai Sonata | Up to 4 | SAR 400 | SAR 500 |
| Family Van | Hyundai Staria H1 | Up to 7 | SAR 550 | SAR 700 |
| Group Van | Toyota Hiace | Up to 10 | SAR 600 | SAR 800 |
| Luxury SUV | GMC Yukon XL | Up to 7 | SAR 1000 | SAR 1200 |
| Minibus | Toyota Coaster | Up to 16 | SAR 900 | SAR 1100 |
Fares are per vehicle, not per person. They can change during Ramadan and Hajj season. Send us your hotel names and travel date on WhatsApp to confirm your fare.
Makkah to Madinah is about 450 km on the Hijrah highway. By taxi the trip takes 4.5 to 5 hours, including a short break for prayer and refreshments. If you add the stop at Badr, plan for 1 to 1.5 extra hours.
| Route | Distance | Taxi Time |
|---|---|---|
| Direct, Makkah hotel to Madinah hotel | About 450 km | 4.5 to 5 hours |
| Via Badr with a stop | Slightly longer | 6 to 6.5 hours |
Leaving after Fajr usually means a quieter road and arriving in Madinah in time for Dhuhr.
A private car from Makkah to Madinah means one journey from door to door. The driver collects you at your Makkah hotel, your suitcases and Zamzam stay in the car the whole way, and you are dropped at the entrance of your hotel near Masjid an Nabawi. Elderly parents, small children and wheelchairs are much easier to manage this way than with a coach or the train.
| What Matters | Private Taxi | Haramain Train |
|---|---|---|
| Door to door | Hotel to hotel | Taxi needed to and from each station |
| Luggage and Zamzam | Stays with you in the car | Limited, carried through the stations |
| Price for a family | One fare for the whole car | A ticket for every passenger |
| Stop at Badr | Yes, on request | No |
Travelling alone with one bag? The train can be quicker. For families and groups, the taxi is usually simpler and often cheaper.
The cheapest option is the sedan at SAR 400 for up to 4 passengers. For 5 to 7 people, the Makkah to Madinah car fare is SAR 550 for one Staria H1. That is less than two sedans at SAR 800, and the family stays together. Groups of up to 10 pay SAR 600 for a Hiace, which works out at about SAR 60 per person.
Four to five hours on the road is easier when the small things are taken care of. This is what comes with every Makkah to Madinah taxi we send:
Families often pick the Staria H1 or GMC Yukon XL for this route so everyone can sit comfortably and the luggage still fits. Solo travellers and couples are fine in a Camry or Sonata.
Our drivers know the Hijrah highway, the good rest areas for prayer and food, and how to reach hotels around Masjid an Nabawi without confusion.
Send your Makkah hotel, your Madinah hotel, the date and the number of passengers. We reply with the fare and pickup time. No app or account needed.
Many pilgrims want to see Badr, where the first major battle of Islam took place, and the graves of the martyrs nearby. It sits along the way between Makkah and Madinah, so you can visit it without making a separate trip. Choose the Via Badr fare when you book and the driver will stop there for you before continuing to Madinah.
Already in Madinah and heading back later? Book a Madinah to Makkah taxi or a Madinah Ziyarat taxi with the same team.
