OFFICIAL NOTE: We specialize in pre-booked Heritage, Intercity, and VIP Airport transfers. We do NOT provide local short-distance hailing.
Hegra (Madain Saleh) Access
Private vehicles are NOT allowed inside the Hegra archaeological site. Our driver will drop you at the Winter Park Visitor Center or your hotel, where you must board the official RCU bus for the tour.
Do I really need a VIP transfer in AlUla?
AlUla is vast. The distance between the Old Town and Hegra is over 25km. There is no public bus system.
Does Uber work here?
Very poorly. Drivers are scarce, especially at night or near remote resorts like Habitas. You risk being stranded.
Can I rent a small car?
Accessing Elephant Rock or campground parking often involves soft sand. We use 4x4 SUVs to prevent getting stuck.
Are sites walkable?
No. Maraya Concert Hall, Hegra, and Old Town are kilometers apart. A dedicated driver for the day is highly recommended.

Traveling in AlUla: Seasonal Taxi Tips
Understanding the local climate for a comfortable pilgrimage experience.
Summer (June - August)
Temperatures can exceed 40°C (104°F). It is critical to book air-conditioned taxis pre-arrival. Walking between hotels and the Haram during noon is difficult. Our fleet guarantees high-performance AC systems (tested for AlUla's heat) to ensure your family remains cool from pickup to drop-off.
Winter (December - February)
Pleasant weather (18°C - 30°C / 64°F - 86°F). This is popularly known as the "Umrah Season". Traffic congestion increases significantly. While walking is easier, finding a taxi on the street becomes harder due to high demand. Pre-booking ensures you skip the long street-side waits after prayers.

Travel Reality Check: What to Expect
Expert consensus on travel times and costs based on real pilgrim data
Maraya Access
"We can just drive up to it."
NO. The Ashar Valley gate is strict. You need a restaurant reservation or concert ticket to pass. Taxis drop you at the gate unless you have a pass.
Summer Heat
"It's like Riyadh."
It is hotter. Mid-day tours in July are dangerous. We schedule rides for sunrise/sunset.
