Taif Ziyarat Taxi from Makkah: Private Round Trip Day Tour
The Taif Ziyarat taxi from Online Umrah Taxi is a private day trip from your Makkah hotel, and it costs 440 SAR per vehicle in a Toyota Camry. That price covers the round trip, there and back. Your driver collects you from your Makkah hotel, drives you up the Al-Hada road to Taif and brings you back to the same hotel. Your stops and the waiting time in Taif are agreed on WhatsApp before pickup.
Taif is roughly 90 km from Makkah, about 1.5 hours each way. Popular Taif stops include Al-Hada, the Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque and Shubra Palace. On the way back, you can ask for a stop at the Taif-side Meeqat, at Qarn al-Manazil (As-Sail al-Kabir) or Wadi Muharram on the Al-Hada road; your scholar can advise on the ruling. Families and groups can book a Hyundai Staria, Toyota Hiace or Toyota Coaster, and Jeddah pickups are available too.

About the Taif Day Tour
A Private Taif Ziyarah Taxi from Your Makkah Hotel and Back
The Online Umrah Taxi Taif day tour is a private round trip from your Makkah hotel to Taif and back. The fare is fixed per vehicle, not per person. A family of four in a Toyota Camry pays 440 SAR in total, with no meter and nothing to negotiate on the day. On other days of your stay, book a Makkah taxi for shorter rides around the city.
Taif is a mountain city in the Hijaz, east of Makkah. The route climbs the Al-Hada road, a winding mountain road with wide views over the valleys. Traffic and the number of stops decide the exact drive time on the day.
Taif holds a special place in Islamic history. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) travelled to Taif to invite its people to Islam. Many pilgrims visit Taif to reflect on that journey. The Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque in Taif carries the name of the Prophet’s cousin, a great scholar of the Qur’an.
Online Umrah Taxi drivers speak English and Arabic and understand the pilgrimage routes around Makkah and Taif. You can ask the driver for a prayer stop, a photo stop at a viewpoint or a short rest break.

- Return to Makkah included

What You Can See in Taif
Places to Visit on Your Taif Ziyarah Tour
A Taif day tour can include a historic mosque, a palace, parks and mountain viewpoints. You pick the places, and your route links them in a sensible order. These six places are the main stops you can add to a Taif day.
Al-Hada Road & Viewpoints
Al-Hada is the mountain area on the Makkah side of Taif. The Al-Hada road climbs the steep mountainside in tight bends above the valleys. Your driver can pause at a safe viewpoint for photos. Where operating, the Al-Hada cable car runs down the slope.
Al-Shafa Highlands
Al-Shafa is a highland area outside Taif city, known for cooler air, terraced farms and open mountain views. Families often add Al-Shafa when they want a quieter stop.
Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque
The Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque is one of the best-known mosques in Taif. Many pilgrims pray here during their day tour. Your driver can plan the visit around a prayer time if you ask.
Shubra Palace
Shubra Palace is a historic palace in Taif, known for its traditional Hijazi architecture. Visitor access can vary, so ask about it when you book. Your driver can usually stop nearby for photos.
Al Rudaf Park
Al Rudaf Park is a large public park in Taif with rock formations and open space. Families with children often use Al Rudaf Park as a rest stop between visits. Al Rudaf Park is a good place to stretch your legs before the drive back.
Taif Rose Farms
The Taif rose farms bloom in spring. During the rose season, some farms welcome visitors and sell rose water. Ask for a rose farm stop if you travel in spring.
Sample Itinerary
A Sample Taif Day Itinerary from Makkah
A typical Taif day tour from Makkah climbs the mountain, tours the city and then heads back down. This sample plan shows a common order of stops. Your own day can drop, add or swap any of them.
The day starts with pickup at your Makkah hotel and the climb up the Al-Hada road. The first stop is often a viewpoint at Al-Hada, close to the Al-Hada cable car. From Al-Hada, the road continues into Taif city.
In Taif, many pilgrims begin at the Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque, ideally around a prayer time. Masjid Addas, another well-known Taif site, can be added on request. Shubra Palace and Al Rudaf Park are short drives within the city. In spring, a visit to a rose farm fits well at this point.
Some families add Al-Shafa for its highland views before turning back. If you plan to enter Ihram for another Umrah, you can ask to stop at the Taif-side Meeqat, at Qarn al-Manazil (As-Sail al-Kabir) or Wadi Muharram on the Al-Hada road. The Meeqat taxi Makkah page compares the Taif-side Meeqat with Tan’eem and Ji’ranah. Qarn al-Manazil sits on the As-Sail road, not the Al-Hada road, so returning that way may take longer. For guidance on Ihram, please speak to your scholar or group leader.
Tell us early if you need a long lunch break or rest time for elderly parents, so waiting time can be confirmed. The order of stops is agreed with you before the day.
- Al-Hada viewpoint first
- Mosque around prayer time
- City sites next
- Rose farms in spring
- Al-Shafa if time allows
- Meeqat stop on request

Taif day tours for pilgrims staying in Makkah and Jeddah hotels.
Taif Through the Year
Taif Through the Seasons: Cooler Climate and Spring Roses
Taif is usually much cooler than Makkah because the city sits high in the Sarawat mountains. For many pilgrims, a day of fresh mountain air is a welcome rest between days of worship. Families with children and elderly parents often find the break refreshing.
The Taif rose season comes in spring. During those weeks, the Taif rose farms bloom and make rose water. Travellers visiting in spring often ask for a rose farm on their itinerary.
Outside spring, Taif still offers mountain views, historic sites and green parks. Al-Hada and Al-Shafa are pleasant for viewpoints at any time of year.
Weekends and holidays can be busier on the Al-Hada road and in the Taif parks. An earlier pickup from Makkah can help you enjoy quieter stops. Choose your start time when you book on WhatsApp.
- Cooler mountain air
- Spring rose season
- Year-round viewpoints
- Pack a light layer
- Early start on weekends
- Ask about seasonal stops

Yes. The Taif Ziyarat taxi is a private Taif day trip from your Makkah hotel, and it costs 440 SAR per vehicle in a Toyota Camry for the round trip. Some pilgrims search for it as a Taif tour from Makkah. You agree your stops in Taif on WhatsApp, and the driver brings you back to the same hotel. Only need a one-way ride to Taif? See the Makkah to Taif taxi.
Taif is roughly 90 km from Makkah via the Al-Hada road. The drive usually takes about 1.5 hours each way. Traffic, weather and photo stops can change the time.
The Taif tour fare is per vehicle, not per person. Your whole group shares one fixed price for the car. A larger group simply books a larger vehicle instead of paying per seat.
Yes, but the published Taif Ziyarat fare is a same-day round trip from your Makkah hotel. For a night or more in Taif, book two one-way rides, each quoted on WhatsApp. The Makkah to Taif taxi page covers both directions.
Yes. Trips that start at a Jeddah hotel or at Jeddah Airport, including the Jeddah round trip from 680 SAR, are on the Taif taxi page. The Jeddah Airport version runs on the same day and can finish at your Makkah hotel if Umrah comes next. This Taif Ziyarat day tour is priced from a Makkah hotel.

Before Your Taif Day
Taif Day Trip: Timing, Tickets and Comfort FAQs
Plan for most of a day, because the drive alone takes about 3 hours there and back. A morning pickup gives you daylight for the Al-Hada viewpoints and the Taif parks. You pick the pickup time that suits your family when you book.
The Makkah hotel to Taif fare is a round trip, so your driver brings you back to Makkah. How long the driver waits in Taif, and which stops are included, are agreed on WhatsApp before the day. Tell the team how many hours you want in Taif, and Online Umrah Taxi confirms the fixed fare for that plan.
No. The Taif fare is for the vehicle and the drive, not entry to the places you visit. Online Umrah Taxi does not sell tickets for the Al-Hada cable car or other Taif sites. Ask on WhatsApp if you want to check whether the cable car is operating, and keep a back-up stop in mind.
Tell your driver, and ask for a short stop where it is safe to pull over. The Al-Hada road climbs the mountain in tight bends, which can upset some children and older travellers. Sitting near the front and looking ahead helps some people. If car sickness worries you, mention it on WhatsApp when you book.
Bring a light layer, because Taif is usually cooler than Makkah and mountain weather can change quickly. Pack any medicine your parents or children need, including travel sickness tablets if you use them. Bottled water is provided in the car.
Planning Your Taif Tour
Taif Itinerary FAQs: Stops, Meeqat and Vehicles
Popular Taif stops are Al-Hada, Al-Shafa, the Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque, Masjid Addas, Shubra Palace and Al Rudaf Park. In spring, many visitors add a rose farm. Where operating, the Al-Hada cable car can be part of the day too.
Yes, you can build your own Taif itinerary. Send the places you want to see, and Online Umrah Taxi suggests a practical order. You can skip, swap or add stops before the day.
Yes, on request. If you plan another Umrah after Taif, your driver can stop at the Taif-side Meeqat, at Qarn al-Manazil (As-Sail al-Kabir) or Wadi Muharram on the Al-Hada road. Qarn al-Manazil is on the As-Sail road, which is different from the Al-Hada road, so that drive back may take longer. Please ask your scholar or group leader whether and where you should enter Ihram.
The Taif roses bloom in spring. During the rose season, some Taif rose farms welcome visitors. Outside spring, Taif is still worth a visit for its cooler air and mountain views.
For a family of up to 7, the Hyundai Staria, GMC Yukon XL or Chevrolet Suburban works well. For up to 11 people, choose the Toyota Hiace. For up to 17 people, the Toyota Coaster carries the whole Umrah group in one vehicle.
Yes. Prayer stops are made on request during the Taif day tour. Many pilgrims pray at the Abdullah ibn Abbas Mosque in Taif. Share your prayer times with the driver at pickup so the stops fit your day.
