Your First Half Hour in Madinah
The ride from Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz Airport to the central area around the Prophet's Mosque is short, usually around half an hour. Even so, it is the first thing you face after landing, often tired, often with family and luggage, and wanting to reach the hotel, make wudu and catch the next prayer at the mosque. So Umrah Taxi keeps this ride as simple as possible: a driver waiting with your name, a price known in advance, and a direct drop at your hotel.
Fare for the Whole Car (SAR)
| Sedan | Family SUV/Van | VIP |
|---|---|---|
| 100 | 200 | 300 |
The price is per car, not per passenger, and paid on arrival at your hotel. Normal bookings need no prepayment. For other routes see our taxi fares guide.
What Happens After Landing
- We track your flight and adjust the driver's time if you land early or late.
- The driver stands in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name.
- You have 60 minutes of free waiting after touchdown, which is enough in most cases.
- The driver loads your bags and heads straight for the central area.
Getting Dropped at Your Hotel
Most central-area hotels are a short walk from the courtyards of the Prophet's Mosque, and some surrounding streets close to cars around the main prayers, especially on Fridays and in Ramadan. If you arrive during a closure, the driver drops you at the nearest permitted point and helps with your bags. That is why it helps to send the exact hotel name, since several hotels have similar names.

Once You Have Settled In

Visitors' Questions
Can I go straight to the mosque before the hotel?
Yes. The driver can take you to the closest point to the mosque, but it is usually better to drop your bags at the hotel first, since the two are normally close together.
What if I land late at night?
The service runs around the clock, and the driver will be there whatever time you land.
Does the fare cover a lot of luggage?
Yes, as long as it fits in the car. Tell us how many bags you have so we send the right category.
Can I book the ride back to the airport?
Yes. Send your departure flight and we will schedule the hotel-to-airport ride.
