You can hail taxis anywhere in Mecca (Makkah). Drivers usually do not use the meter, so the fare is negotiable. During the last ten days of Ramadan and the Hajj season, the fare may be three times higher due to the high demand and traffic congestion. High-quality, air-conditioned buses run by private companies (such as Dallah and Rawahel) operate specific routes during the Umrah and Hajj seasons.

Metro is an excellent service for long haul in Mecca (Makkah), has great capacity and provides fast service along major corridors. However, Metro does not provide large coverage area.

The success of a Metro system depends on a robust complementary bus service. Procurement for Phase 1 of both the Metro and Bus Network is underway.
