Full day · ≈ 170 km each way · from SAR 450 per vehicle — private, air-conditioned cars with a fixed fare confirmed before you travel.
When you want a break from the heat of Makkah, Taif is the Kingdom's mountain escape — cool air, rose farms and the winding roads of Al Hada and Al Shafa, about 170 km from Makkah. A private day-trip taxi lets you leave after Fajr and be back at your hotel the same night.
Your driver handles the mountain road while you enjoy the views, with stops at the cable car area in Al Hada, the viewpoints and fruit stalls of Al Shafa, and Taif's famous rose product shops. Because the car is yours for the day, the stops and their length are your choice.
Per vehicle, not per person — includes fuel, tolls, driver and luggage help.
