You can stop to see the site of the Battle of Badr and the Martyrs' cemetery before continuing to Makkah. This route adds approximately 1.5 - 2 hours to the total journey compared to the direct highway.

Why Choose Private Taxi Over Train or Bus?
Public transport options to Badr and onward to Makkah are practically nonexistent or require grueling multi-bus transfers. Securing a private Umrah transfer guarantees your luggage remains untouched while you explore Badr autonomously.
Selecting the Right Vehicle for Your Needs
For an exhausting 6+ hour trip traversing secondary desert highways, we vehemently recommend the VIP SUV or expansive Family Van. The plush seating entirely negates travel fatigue before performing Umrah.
Journey Experience & Stops
Make certain you have entered Ihram gracefully at the Abyar Ali Miqat prior to departing Madinah. Upon reaching Badr, your driver will navigate directly to the Martyrs of Badr cemetery, offering immense spiritual reflection.
How to Book Your Taxi
Simply select your Madinah hotel for morning pickup. We heavily advise departing immediately after Fajr to experience Badr during the cool morning hours and arrive in Makkah before the aggressive afternoon heat.
