Umrah Group Transport: One WhatsApp Contact for Every Vehicle Your Group Needs

Umrah group transport from Online Umrah Taxi moves families and pilgrim groups in private vans and minibuses with a driver. A Toyota Hiace seats 11 people, and a Toyota Coaster seats 17. Bigger groups book several vehicles for the same pickup time, and each vehicle has its own fixed fare. From Jeddah Airport to a Makkah hotel, a Hiace costs 350 SAR and a Coaster 400 SAR for the whole vehicle.

The group leader plans every ride in one WhatsApp chat. That covers King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) to Makkah, the drive to Madinah and the trip back to the airport. Send names, flight numbers and bag counts in advance. The team then matches the vehicles to your group before anyone lands.

Group Umrah Taxi for Families, Mosques and Travel Agents

A group umrah taxi is a whole vehicle booked for your party, with no strangers on board. Online Umrah Taxi charges per vehicle, not per person. Ten pilgrims in one Toyota Hiace share a single fare between them.

Extended families book group rides so grandparents, parents and children stay in one vehicle. Mosque and community groups book the same way, often with one organiser handling every detail. Travel agents and group leaders can also book rides on behalf of their pilgrims.

Online Umrah Taxi is licensed by the Saudi Transport Authority to carry pilgrims. Its drivers speak English and Arabic and know the roads between Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah and Taif. The driver helps load and unload the luggage at every pickup and drop-off.

Group-Size Planner

How Many Vehicles? Match Them to Your Group Size

Start with two numbers: how many people are travelling and how many large suitcases they bring. Online Umrah Taxi then suggests the vehicle, or the mix of vehicles, that fits both. Families of up to 7 can compare the 7-seaters on the umrah taxi fleet page.

8 to 11: One Van

A Toyota Hiace seats 11 and carries 14 large suitcases. A mid-sized family or a small mosque group stays in one van.

12 to 17: One Minibus

The Toyota Coaster seats 17 with room for 20 large suitcases. It is the largest vehicle in the Online Umrah Taxi fleet, so bigger groups add a second vehicle.

18 to 28: Coaster Plus Hiace

Take a group of 28. One Coaster (17 seats, 20 bags) and one Hiace (11 seats, 14 bags) are booked for the same pickup time. From Jeddah Airport to Makkah, the Coaster is charged its 400 SAR fare and the Hiace its 350 SAR fare.

Bigger Than 28?

Larger groups add further vehicles for the same pickup time. Ask on WhatsApp for a mix that fits your numbers and your luggage, and the team confirms which vehicles are free for your date.

More Bags Than Seats

Luggage can decide the vehicle as much as the headcount does. If the bag count is higher than a vehicle takes, the team suggests a larger vehicle or an extra one.

Numbers Still Changing?

Send rough numbers on WhatsApp before your list is final. You can change the plan on WhatsApp before the pickup time with no extra fee.

Why Groups Pre-Book

Keeping a Pilgrim Group Organised From Arrival to Departure

Moving 15 or 30 people through an airport and two holy cities is mostly a planning job. With pre-booked group transport, every vehicle, fare and pickup time is agreed before the trip starts.

One Chat for the Whole Group

The group leader arranges every vehicle and every leg in one WhatsApp conversation.

Fares Known Before You Fly

Each vehicle has a fixed fare, so the transport budget is clear before departure.

One Name Sign at Arrivals

At the airport, the group looks for a single name sign in the arrivals hall.

Flights Tracked in Real Time

Your flight is followed live, and a delayed landing costs the group nothing extra.

Bags Handled at Each Stop

Drivers help load and unload suitcases and Zamzam at every pickup and drop-off.

Prayer Stops on Long Legs

On the long road from Makkah to Madinah, the driver stops for prayer when the group asks.

Vehicles for Groups

Group Vehicles and Their Fare to Jeddah Airport

Each card shows the fixed Makkah hotel to Jeddah Airport fare for that whole vehicle, the ride home for groups flying out of Jeddah. Groups of 8 to 17 usually fit a Toyota Hiace or a Toyota Coaster. Smaller family groups fit one of the 7-seaters, and larger groups combine vehicles.

Groups over 17 combine vehicles, and each vehicle is charged its own fixed fare.

Full-Itinerary Planning

Planning the Whole Trip: JED to Makkah to Madinah

A typical group Umrah has three or four road legs, and each leg is booked as its own ride. Online Umrah Taxi plans all of them in one chat, so the group leader works from one timetable.

Leg one runs from King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) to your Makkah hotel, roughly 100 km and about 1 to 1.5 hours. A Toyota Hiace costs 350 SAR and a Toyota Coaster 400 SAR for that leg. The Jeddah Airport to Makkah taxi page explains the arrival in detail.

Leg two is the Makkah to Madinah taxi ride from hotel to hotel, roughly 450 km and about 4.5 to 5 hours with stops. The Hiace fare for this leg is 800 SAR, and the Coaster fare is 900 SAR. Some groups fit a Ziyarat tour or a Meeqat trip in Makkah before this leg.

The last leg takes the group to its flight home. From a Madinah hotel to Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport (MED), the Hiace is 200 SAR and the Coaster 220 SAR. Flying out of Jeddah instead? The Madinah to Jeddah Airport taxi is 820 SAR by Hiace and 950 SAR by Coaster.

Groups that land in Madinah simply run the plan in reverse. A group using a Coaster and a Hiace pays both fares on every leg, for example 900 SAR for the Coaster plus 800 SAR for the Hiace from Makkah to Madinah. Send your group’s flight plan on WhatsApp, and the team lists each leg with its fare for your vehicles.

Airport Pickups & Group Leaders

Airport Pickups for Groups and What the Leader Sends First

At King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED), flights are tracked in real time, and there is no charge if the plane lands late. If part of the group comes in on a later flight, the team can book a separate pickup for that flight.

The group leader is the single contact for Online Umrah Taxi, from the first message to the last drop-off. One person talking to the team keeps changes clear. If a second person can speak for the group when the leader is busy, tell the team their name.

Before travel, send the full passenger list with names, flight numbers and arrival times. Add a bag count per person, and count large suitcases separately from hand luggage. For the ride home, include Zamzam and shopping, because bags often multiply during a trip.

Group Ziyarat & Meeqat

Ziyarat Tours and Meeqat Trips for the Whole Group

A group Ziyarat tour keeps everyone in one vehicle while you visit the historic sites. In a Toyota Hiace, the Makkah Ziyarat and the Madinah Ziyarat each cost 370 SAR. In a Toyota Coaster, each tour costs 400 SAR. At each stop the driver waits while the group visits and prays there.

Mina, Arafat and Muzdalifah are Ziyarat stops only outside the Hajj days, and from 8 to 13 Dhul Hijjah Online Umrah Taxi provides no transport in the holy sites. The full stop list is on the Makkah Ziyarat taxi page.

Adding Wadi-e-Jinn to the Madinah tour costs 480 SAR by Hiace and 500 SAR by Coaster. The Madinah Ziyarat taxi page lists the stops in Madinah.

Meeqat trips for a group are return trips from the Makkah hotel, and the driver waits while everyone enters Ihram and prays. Which Meeqat applies to your group is a question for your scholar, and the Meeqat taxi Makkah page covers the options.

For background on each stop, read our guide to the Ziyarat places in Makkah and Madinah.

One Group Booking or Separate Taxis on the Day?

Street taxis and ride apps work well for small parties, and they are often available without booking. A group of 12 or more usually needs several of them, found one car at a time. A pre-booked group ride puts the whole plan in place before you land.

We booked our Coaster for a group of 15 pilgrims. Clean, comfortable, and arrived on time after Fajr. Great coordination through WhatsApp.

Hassan A., Nigeria

Our driver met us right at Jeddah Airport and helped with luggage. The car was spotless and the fare exactly as promised. I’ll definitely use them again next Umrah.

Ahmed K., Indonesia

Smooth ride from Makkah to Madinah with an English-speaking driver. He even stopped briefly for prayer on request. Excellent service and value.

Fatima S., Pakistan

Booked a Ziyarah tour in Madinah. The driver knew every sacred site and gave us time to pray peacefully. Truly grateful.

Maryam R., UK

Very reliable and honest. My elderly parents travelled from Jeddah to Makkah without any issues. They felt safe the entire time.

Easy booking on WhatsApp, fixed fare confirmed instantly, and punctual pickup. The best taxi experience we’ve had in Saudi Arabia.
