Arabian Elite Chauffeurs drives you privately from Riyadh to Jeddah. The route is about 950 km via Taif and takes 9 to 10 hours of driving, plus stops. Fixed fares start at SAR 1,605 per car in a Ford Taurus. Your driver stops for rest, meals and prayer whenever you want. Muslim travellers can add a stop in Makkah for Umrah, with Ihram at the As-Sayl al-Kabir (Qarn al-Manazil) Miqat. An overnight break in Taif can also be arranged. Book 24/7 on WhatsApp.
1. Plan the trip on WhatsApp. Send your pickup address, date, departure time, passengers and bags, and tell us if you want an Umrah stop or a night in Taif. We reply with a fixed price.
2. Early pickup at your door. Most guests leave Riyadh early in the morning to reach Jeddah by evening. Your driver arrives before the pickup time and loads your bags.
3. Stops when you need them. The road runs west through central Najd to Taif. We stop for fuel, meals and prayer whenever you ask.
4. Makkah or straight to Jeddah. For Umrah, we stop at the Miqat for Ihram and take you to Makkah. Non-Muslim guests take the Makkah bypass. Then we continue to any address in Jeddah.

The exact fare depends on your pickup point, drop-off and travel time, and is confirmed on WhatsApp before you travel. Personal visa fees, if any, are not included. Return trips and waiting time can be quoted together as one price.
Moving to Jeddah with suitcases, boxes or children? An SUV or HiAce carries everything with no baggage fees.
Combine the trip with Umrah, Miqat included, without changing cars.
Some travellers would rather drive than deal with airports. The car leaves when you’re ready.
For 6 or more people, one vehicle at one fixed price is often cheaper than separate flights.
The flight itself is short, but with travel to the airport, check-in, waiting and the transfer at the other end it often adds up to half a day. Driving makes sense when you have 4 or more people, a lot of luggage, want an Umrah stop on the way, or simply prefer not to fly.
