Makkah to Jeddah FAQs
How far is Makkah from Jeddah by road?
About 85 km, roughly ~1 hr 10 min. To Jeddah Airport it is about 80 km.
Can you drop me at a Jeddah hotel or the Corniche?
Yes. Any hotel, residence, office or sight in Jeddah. Al-Balad's historic core is on foot — the driver drops you at its edge.
Should I book this or the airport transfer?
If you are flying, book Makkah to Jeddah Airport, which is timed from your flight. This page is for trips to addresses in the city.
Is the car private?
Yes. The car is only for your group.
Which vehicle should I choose?
A sedan suits one to three people with normal luggage. A GMC or full-size SUV, or a Hyundai Staria, suits families with more luggage. A Hiace van or coaster suits larger groups; coaches are arranged on request. We confirm the vehicle against your passenger and luggage count when we quote.
Can I book a driver for the whole day instead?
Yes. If you will visit several places in Jeddah, a private driver by the hour keeps the car waiting at each stop.
How do I get a quote?
