From the Eastern Province to the capital, without the drive
The road from Dammam to Riyadh is a mostly straight highway of about 400 km, usually taking around four hours. Easy on a map, but tiring if you are driving yourself after a work day or with children and luggage. That is why many people book a car with a driver: you get in at your door or hotel and get out in front of your destination in Riyadh.
With Mishwar Al Haramain the fare is fixed for the whole car, not per passenger. This route is not on our published fare list, so we confirm the price on WhatsApp before the trip. You pay the driver on arrival, with no prepayment for normal bookings.
Where we pick you up
Any district in Dammam, Khobar or Dhahran, or straight from King Fahd International Airport after you land. At the airport the driver waits in arrivals with a name sign, with flight tracking and 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. For rides within the Eastern Province, see our Dammam taxi page.
Where we drop you in Riyadh
- Your hotel or apartment in any district.
- An office or meeting in one of the business districts.
- King Khalid International Airport, if your flight leaves from Riyadh, with plenty of time before departure.
Once there, you can keep travelling with us around the capital via our Riyadh taxi service.
How the trip usually goes
- The driver arrives at the agreed time and helps load your bags.
- You head west out of Dammam on the highway to Riyadh, passing the Abqaiq area.
- The driver stops at roadside stations for prayer or coffee whenever you ask.
- Approaching Riyadh, rush-hour traffic can add time, so allow for it if you have a fixed appointment.
