Distance and Drive Time from Makkah to Madinah

Madinah is about 450 km from Makkah, and the drive usually takes 4.5 to 5 hours, hotel to hotel.
Your driver takes the Hijrah Road, the main highway between the two cities. The time changes with traffic around Masjid al-Haram when you leave, and with the stops you ask for.

Prayer and Rest Stops on the Way

Your driver stops for prayer, food, toilets and fuel at roadside stations on the highway, whenever you ask. Tell us your prayer times, and we plan the stops around them.

When to Leave Makkah

Tell us when you want to reach your Madinah hotel, and we set the pickup time to match. Families often leave after breakfast, so they check in at their Madinah hotel in the afternoon.

Taxi or Haramain Train from Makkah to Madinah?

A taxi suits families with luggage, because it drives you from your hotel door to your hotel door. The Haramain train is faster on the rails, but you need a taxi to each station and you carry your bags through both.
