How to Book a Taxi with Saudia Taxi Service | 3 Simple Steps
Booking a taxi in Saudi Arabia should not be complicated. No lengthy forms, no app downloads, no waiting on hold. At Saudia Taxi Service the entire process takes less than five minutes and can be done from anywhere in the world before you even land in Saudi Arabia.
Whether you need a Jeddah Airport to Makkah taxi, an intercity transfer between Makkah and Madina, or a private Umrah taxi service, here is exactly how our booking process works.
Step 1: Message Us on WhatsApp with Your Trip Details
Everything starts with one WhatsApp message. Send us the following information and we will take it from there:
- Pickup location — your hotel name, airport terminal, or address
- Destination — where you need to go
- Travel date and time — including AM or PM clearly
- Number of passengers — so we assign the right vehicle
- Number of bags — helps us confirm vehicle suitability
- Flight number — required for all airport pickups so we can track your arrival in real time
You do not need to fill in a form or create an account. A single WhatsApp message with these details is all it takes to get the process started.
Step 2: Receive Your Fixed Fare Confirmation
Within minutes of your message we will send you back a confirmed fixed fare for your journey.
The price you receive is the price you pay. No changes on the day, no additions for luggage or late night pickups, no meter running in the background.
For reference, here are our standard fixed fares:
- Makkah to Madina Taxi — SAR 450 for a 4-seater sedan
- Madina to Makkah Taxi — SAR 450 for a 4-seater sedan
- Jeddah Airport to Makkah — SAR 250 for a 4-seater sedan
- 7-seater Hyundai Staria — available for families and groups, fare confirmed at booking
If you need a Makkah Ziyarat tour or Madina Ziyarat tour, just mention this in your message and we will confirm the tour fare along with available time slots.
Once you confirm the fare your booking is locked in. That is it.
Step 3: Travel with Confidence
On your travel day your driver will contact you directly with their details before the journey begins.
For airport pickups your driver monitors your flight in real time. If your flight is delayed by two hours, your driver adjusts. You do not need to call or send updates. It is handled automatically.
Your driver arrives at the agreed location on time, assists with your luggage, and takes you directly to your destination. No detours, no extra stops, no surprise charges on arrival.
For airport pickups specifically:
- Your driver will be waiting at the arrivals exit with your name clearly displayed
- The driver's WhatsApp number is saved on your phone before you land
- If you cannot locate your driver at any point, one message is all it takes to reconnect
Why Our Booking Process Works So Well
Many taxi services require you to fill in an online form, wait 24 hours for confirmation, or navigate a complicated booking platform.
We deliberately kept our process simple because we serve pilgrims who are often managing multiple travel arrangements at once.
A single WhatsApp conversation. A fixed fare confirmed in writing. A driver's contact saved before travel day. That is everything you need and nothing you don't.
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year including throughout Hajj season, Ramadan, and all peak pilgrim periods.
Booking Tips to Keep in Mind
- Book early during peak seasons. Ramadan, Hajj, and Umrah season see extremely high demand. Read our best time to travel guide
- Book both directions at once. If you are traveling from Makkah to Madina and returning, confirm both journeys in the same conversation
- Double check your pickup time. Confirm AM or PM clearly when messaging
- Save your driver's number immediately once it is shared with you
- Mention special requirements upfront including wheelchair users, elderly passengers, or extra luggage
