Our Madinah to AlUla taxi picks you up at your hotel near Masjid an-Nabawi and drives you straight to your hotel or resort in AlUla. Many pilgrims add AlUla to their trip after Umrah to see Hegra (Mada’in Salih), Saudi Arabia’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the desert landscapes around it.
You can book a one-way transfer, a return trip with a pickup on the day you choose, or keep the same driver for a multi-day trip. Prayer, food and rest stops are included on the way, and the whole family travels together in one private car.
