Travelling Between
Two Holy Cities
The journey between Makkah Al Mukarramah and Medina Al Munawwarah is one of the most spiritually significant transfers any pilgrim makes. Al-Harbi Transport has been entrusted with this blessed journey by thousands of pilgrims from Pakistan, India, UK, Malaysia, Egypt, and across the world since 2014.
The road between the two holy cities spans approximately 430–450 km via Highway 15 — a well-maintained expressway through the Hejaz region. Your driver picks you up directly from your Makkah hotel lobby, makes one rest stop along the highway, and delivers you to your Medina hotel door — no shared passengers, no detours.
For elderly pilgrims or those travelling with children, we recommend the Hyundai Staria for its wide doors, reclining seats and extra comfort on the 4–5 hour road. Night travel is popular among pilgrims — cooler and calmer on the highway. We serve departures at any hour.
