Your journey, step by step
The seven stops of the Madinah ziyarat, and why they matter
The 150-minute loop through the historic mosques and battle sites of Madina ziyarat, the sacred historical places of the Seerah. Reorder it, add to it, or linger anywhere: the route is yours.
- Masjid Quba, the first mosque of Islam
Masjid Quba is the first mosque built in Islam, raised by the Prophet Muhammad himself on arrival from Makkah. Praying two rakah at the Quba Mosque carries the reward of an Umrah in the hadith, so drivers wait 20-25 minutes at Masjid Quba for prayers as standard.
- Masjid al-Qiblatain, where the qibla turned
Masjid al-Qiblatayn is where the prayer direction changed from Jerusalem to Makkah in the middle of a congregation. Written Masjid Qiblatain, Masjid al Qiblatain or Masjid al Qiblatayn on maps, it is the only mosque in history built facing two qiblas.
- Mount Uhud, Jabal Rumah and the martyrs cemetery
Mount Uhud is the site of the historic Battle of Uhud. Stand by Jabal Rumah, the archers hill the famous battle turned on, then make salaam at the historic cemetery where Hamza, uncle of the Prophet, rests with the martyrs. The road there passes the Islamic University of Madinah.
- The Seven Mosques and the Battle of the Trench
The Seven Mosques are linked to the Battle of the Trench, small prayer places along the defense line, including Masjid Ali ibn Abi Talib and Masjid Salman al-Farsi, whose idea the trench was. The battle sites read like a map of the siege.
- Back past Jannat al-Baqi, or on to Bir Ali
The loop returns you beside Jannat ul Baqi, the sacred cemetery of Madinah next to the Prophet’s Mosque, best visited on foot after prayer. Continuing to Makkah soon? We can end at Bir Ali, the miqat, so you leave already in ihram.

Compare your options
Every way to do ziyarat in Madinah, honestly compared
A Madinah ziyarat tour buys movement and patience: the sites themselves are free, so what you are really buying is the moving between them and the freedom while you are there. One question separates the options: when you walk away from the car, is it still there when you come back?
| OPTION | TRAVEL TIME | TYPICAL COST | WAITS AT EACH SITE? | THE CATCH |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Private ziyarat taxi, pre booked | 3 to 5 hours | SAR 150 fixed, 3 hrs | Yes, at every one | Costs more than app rides taken one at a time, until you count all the stops. One vehicle, one driver, your own pace, and nobody else's schedule inside the car. |
| Uber or Careem, site by site | Longer than it sounds | 5-6 separate fares | No | Ride-hailing apps like Uber and Careem work in Madinah and are praised for transparency, but the car leaves when you get out. Every site means a fresh request, a wait in the sun, and no one waiting at Quba. |
| Street taxi, negotiated | As agreed, roughly | Whatever you negotiate | If agreed, verbally | Street-side taxis wait outside Masjid an-Nabawi but require negotiation on price, and the waiting-at-sites part of the deal exists only as a promise. Some drivers honor it generously; you find out which kind you got at Mount Uhud. |
| Hotel transport desk | 3 to 5 hours | Our kind of tour, plus margin | Usually yes | Booking through hotel concierges is a common way to secure reliable drivers, and safety and convenience are prioritized. The desk simply adds its commission to a service like this one. |
| Group bus tour | Half a day, fixed | Cheapest per seat | On its schedule | Fine for solo travelers on a budget. The bus decides how long Masjid Quba gets, departs from a station meeting point rather than your hotel, and forty strangers share your quietest moments. |

Questions
Madinah ziyarat taxi, answered
How much does a taxi cost for Madinah Ziyarat?
A 3-hour private tour starts from 150 SAR for the sedan, with the Hyundai Staria at 200 SAR, the Hiace at 250 SAR and the VIP GMC at 300 SAR, fixed per vehicle. Market prices range from 120 to 600 SAR based on vehicle type. Hourly pricing is 80 SAR for sedans and 100 SAR for vans, and no advance deposit is required.
How much does it cost to visit Madinah for a Ziyarat overall?
Very little beyond transport, because every site is free: Masjid Quba, Masjid Qiblatayn, Mount Uhud and the Seven Mosques have no tickets. A family of four in the 150 SAR sedan completes the whole ziyarat tour for about 38 SAR per person.
Which places are included in the Madinah ziyarat?
Our 150-minute package covers Masjid Qubaa, Masjid Qiblatain, Mount Uhud with Jabal Rumah and the martyrs cemetery, the Seven Mosques and the Battle of the Trench area. You can add Jannat al Baqi, Masjid al Ghamamah, Bir Ali or any preferred ziyarat sites with the builder above.
How do I order a taxi in Madinah?
Three reliable taxi services for ziyarat transport: ride-hailing apps, hotel concierges, and street-side taxis outside Masjid an-Nabawi, which require negotiation on price. Pre-booking a local provider ensures a driver meets you at your hotel: send hotel details and ziyarat time on WhatsApp and we confirm and send driver contact details.
Is Uber available in Madinah?
Yes, Uber and Careem both operate in Madinah and are recommended for their transparency and fixed pricing on single trips. For a multi-stop ziyarat they fit poorly: the car leaves at each drop, so every site becomes a new request with no one waiting while you pray.
Is Uber cheaper than taxis in Saudi Arabia?
For one city hop, often yes. For ziyarat the math flips: five or six separate fares, surge where pilgrims gather, and waits in the heat between rides usually cost more than one fixed 150 SAR tour, and always cost more calm.
How much is a taxi from Madinah Airport to Masjid Nabawi?
Our private airport transfer is a fixed SAR 150 for the sedan to any hotel around Al Masjid an Nabawi. Book it together with your ziyarat and the same team handles both ends of the trip.
How much does a taxi cost from Madinah to Mecca?
SAR 450 for the private sedan, hotel to hotel, with a free stop at Bir Ali so you enter ihram at the miqat. It pairs naturally with this tour: ziyarat in the morning, the road to Makkah after Dhuhr.
How do I perform a Ziyarah in Madinah?
Begin at the Prophet's Mosque with salaam upon the Prophet Muhammad and his companions Abu Bakr and Umar, visited on foot from any central hotel. Then take the driven circuit in this order: Quba first for its reward, Qiblatayn, Uhud, then the Trench sites, with dua made simply where you stand. Nothing is touched or circled; ziyarat here is remembrance, and its religious significance needs no rituals.
Is the tour suitable for elderly pilgrims and families?
Built for them. Drivers assist with wheelchair loading for elderly passengers, vehicles are air-conditioned throughout, walking is minimal at every stop, and drivers ensure smooth travel between ziyarat sites with historical context at each location, in the informal guiding style Madinah drivers are loved for.
