Hegra · UNESCO World Heritage Site
Private Transport to Hegra from Your AlUla Hotel
الحجر (مدائن صالح)
Hegra is Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site, a short drive from AlUla town. Visits run as Experience AlUla tours that meet or depart at the Hegra Visitor Centre — you book the tour with them, and we arrange the car there and back, timed to your slot. We provide transport only; the tour is operated by Experience AlUla.

Combining Hegra with the rest of your day
Most visitors pair Hegra with a second stop: the Old Town for a late lunch, or Elephant Rock for sunset. Booking the whole day with a private driver means the same car continues rather than you arranging a new lift after each tour.
Plan the tour in the cooler part of the day. The site is open desert, and tours run to fixed times.

FAQ
Hegra: common questions
Do you run Hegra tours?
No. Hegra tours are operated by Experience AlUla. We arrange the car to and from the Hegra Visitor Centre.
How far is Hegra from AlUla town?
About 22 km from the centre of AlUla — a short drive, but not a walk, which is why a pre-arranged car helps.
Can the car wait for my tour to finish?
Yes. Tell us your tour length and we agree whether the driver waits or returns at your finish time. Single transfers include 15–30 minutes of free waiting.
Can we add Elephant Rock or the Old Town after Hegra?
Yes. Ask for a full-day private driver and the same car continues to your next stop.
Do I need to book Hegra in advance?
Hegra experiences are booked with Experience AlUla — check their site for current availability and timings, then send us your slot.
