The family day
Elderly parents, children and shopping bags in one vehicle, with the driver timing pickups around prayer times instead of the other way round.

Private Driver & Chauffeur Service in Makkah
سيارة مع سائق
A private driver in Makkah is a car and chauffeur booked for a block of hours or a whole day. The car waits outside every stop — a meeting, a shopping trip, a family visit, a Ziyarat — so you never re-book a ride or search for a taxi at the Haram after prayers. 15–30 minutes of free waiting applies to single transfers; on hourly hire the waiting is part of the booked time.

FAQ

How much is a private driver in Makkah?
It depends on the vehicle and the number of hours. The fare for the whole block is agreed on WhatsApp before booking — no meter and no surge.
