In the Eid holiday bus schedule, where are the buses to Makkah and Madina? They do not appear there…

We will find out whether the buses for Makkah and Medina will change for the vacation, Jana. Thank you for pointing this out.

Dear Jana & Caroline,

The bus service to Makkah and Madinah has never been provided during the Eid Holidays. If you look at the Ramadan Bus Schedule, the Makkah bus service is running five days a week and a weekly schedule for Madinah is also provided. This is mainly because bus services caters for Pilgrims from the start of Ramadan. During the Eid bus services caters for community members who wants to spend their holidays in Jeddah. For those who are interested in visiting Makkah and Madinah during Eid, KAUST taxi service is available 24/7 either from Saudi Oger (02-8085624/5625) or Hanco (02-8085647). The Makkah and Madinah bus service will resume after the Eid Holidays.

Regards,

Support Services
