Included as standard

What you get, without asking for it.

Every Umrah transfer carries the same standard, whether it is one traveller from Jeddah or a coach of forty from Madinah.

  • Meet-and-greet inside arrivals

    Your driver waits at the terminal exit with a name sign, not in a car park with a phone call. Flights are tracked, so a delayed landing costs you nothing.

  • The Meeqat stop for ihram

    Built into every transfer from Jeddah and Madinah at no extra cost. Tell us if you need longer there and the schedule is set around it.

  • Drop-off as close to the Haram as permitted

    Access points change with crowd management. Drivers know the day's permitted drop-off and take you to the nearest one rather than the easiest one.

  • Luggage and Zamzam capacity

    Bag counts are stated per vehicle and honoured. Tell us if you are carrying Zamzam on the return and the vehicle is sized for it.

  • Child seats at no charge

    Fitted before the vehicle is assigned. Give us the child's age at enquiry and the right seat is in the car when it arrives.

  • Prayer and comfort stops

    On the Makkah–Madinah run the driver stops for Salah and refreshment. Nothing is skipped to shave twenty minutes off a journey.

  • Driver name and plate in advance

    Sent on WhatsApp before pickup, so nobody is looking for an unmarked car outside a terminal at two in the morning.

  • Tolls, parking and fuel in the fare

    One fixed number per vehicle, agreed in writing. No per-seat maths, no surge, no renegotiation at the kerb.

A note on Umrah permits

Transport and permits are separate things. Your visa gets you into the Kingdom; the Umrah permit itself is issued through the Nusuk app. We will tell you what we see on the ground and can arrange the whole file through Umrah Visa Services — but we will never claim to issue a permit we do not issue.

A typical journey · Jeddah arrival

Six legs, one booking reference.

This is the itinerary most travellers arriving at Jeddah follow. Take all six legs or any one of them — the standard does not change.

  1. Leg 01

    Jeddah airport

    Met inside arrivals with a name sign. Luggage loaded, water in the vehicle.

  2. Leg 02

    Meeqat stop

    Time to change into ihram and pray. As long as you need, at no extra charge.

  3. Leg 03

    Makkah hotel

    Dropped at the nearest permitted point to your hotel and the Haram that day.

  4. Leg 04

    Makkah Ziyarat

    The sites in an order that returns you before Asr, roughly three hours.

  5. Leg 05

    Makkah to Madinah

    450 km, about 4h 30m, with a prayer and refreshment stop on the way.

  6. Leg 06

    Madinah departure

    Madinah Ziyarat if you want it, then the airport with time to spare.

Fares · per vehicle, not per seat

What the common Umrah routes cost.

Why travellers rebook

The details that only come from doing it daily.

Umrah transport is not a taxi ride with a different destination. It has its own rhythm — ihram, prayer times, crowd management, Zamzam on the way home — and the difference between a good transfer and a bad one is whether the driver has done it a thousand times or ten.

  • Routed around prayer, not through it

    Ziyarat circuits are ordered so you finish before Asr. Long runs stop for Salah. The schedule bends to the day, not the other way round.

  • Current Haram access, not last year's

    Permitted drop-off points move with crowd control. Drivers work these streets daily and know today's answer, not the one from last season.

  • Someone answers at 3am

    Umrah flights land at every hour. So does the phone. If a driver is not where he should be, you reach a person, not a voicemail.

  • Families travel comfortably

    Child seats fitted in advance, luggage capacity honoured, and vehicle choice discussed for women travelling in a group or without a mahram.

  • The fare does not move

    Quoted in writing per vehicle, tolls and parking included. A late flight, heavy traffic or extra time at the Meeqat does not change the number.

  • Licensed, insured and checkable

    TGA land transport licence, TGA driver cards, fully insured vehicles, commercial registration published in the footer. Verify it before you book anyone.

Umrah transport questions

Asked before almost every booking.

Anything not here, ask our team directly — someone answers at any hour.

Do you stop at the Meeqat so we can enter ihram?

Yes, on every transfer from Jeddah and Madinah, at no extra cost. Most travellers take 30 to 45 minutes there. If you want longer, say so at enquiry and the schedule is built around it.

How close to the Haram can we be dropped?

As close as the access rules allow on the day, which changes with crowd management. Drivers know the current drop-off points and will take you to the nearest permitted one.

What if our flight is delayed?

Give us the flight number and we track it. The driver arrives when your aircraft does, however late that is, and the fare does not change. There is no waiting charge on tracked flights.

How long is Makkah to Madinah by road?

About 4 hours 30 minutes for the 450 km run, including one comfort stop. Coaches carrying larger groups usually add 20–30 minutes.

Is the fare per person or per vehicle?

Per vehicle, always. Tolls, parking and fuel are inside the number. Four people and one person pay the same for the same car, so travelling together is simply cheaper.

Can you carry Zamzam on the return leg?

Yes. Tell us at enquiry and the vehicle is sized for it, so you are not deciding between a suitcase and a container at the kerb.

Do you arrange the Umrah permit or visa?

The permit itself is issued through the Nusuk app, not by us. Our Umrah Visa Services team can handle the visa application and guide you through the permit, and transport can be booked against the same reference.

How far ahead should we book?

Twenty-four hours is comfortable for a single transfer and same-day is usually possible. For Ramadan and for groups above eleven, book as early as you can — vehicles in those weeks are committed months ahead.

Know your flight and your hotel?

That is enough for a fixed fare. Send it over and you will have a written number back the same day, usually within half an hour.
