About Transfers in Taif
Our Taif taxi service offers airport transfers, the scenic Makkah to Taif mountain route, and sightseeing rides to Al Shafa and the cable car. It is a favourite summer escape for pilgrims and families seeking the cooler highlands.
Taif's appeal is almost entirely seasonal and altitude-driven — its cooler mountain climate on the Al Hada road draws the heaviest visitor numbers during summer, when Saudi and Gulf travellers escape the coastal heat. The rose harvest season adds another short but distinct visitor spike tied to the local farms. The drive up from Makkah climbs steadily along a scenic mountain road, so travellers prone to motion sickness may want to request a short break partway up.
