KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Medina

  • A car rental in Medina, Saudi Arabia, allows you to explore the city at your own pace and convenience. You are not bound by public transportation schedules, allowing you to create a personalized itinerary and visit attractions or places of interest on your own terms. Medina has several significant historical and religious sites located outside the city center. A rental car provides convenient access to Quba Mosque, Uhud Mountain, and King Fahd Park, allowing you to explore them without relying on public transportation or hiring taxis.
  • Visitors arriving in Medina via air will likely land at Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport (MED), about 10 miles away. Several car rental companies operate at Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz International Airport, offering a range of vehicles to suit different needs and preferences. Some well-known rental companies at the airport include Avis, Hertz, Budget, and SIXT. The car rental center is located within the airport premises, close to the main terminal building. Upon arrival at the airport, you can easily find the car rental center by following the signs or asking airport staff for directions.
  • While the road infrastructure in Medina has been improving over the years, some areas may still have ongoing construction or road maintenance. This can lead to temporary diversions, road closures, or uneven road surfaces, requiring extra caution and attention while driving a car rental in Medina. The driving culture in Saudi Arabia may differ from what you're accustomed to in other countries. Some drivers may not strictly adhere to traffic rules, such as lane discipline or speed limits. It's important to be patient, drive defensively, and be prepared for unexpected maneuvers from other road users.
  • Like other cities, Medina experiences peak traffic congestion during morning and evening rush hours when residents and commuters travel to and from work or school. Typically, rush hours occur between 7:00 am and 9:00 am and between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm. Medina is a significant religious destination, attracting many visitors, especially during religious events and pilgrimage seasons. During these times, such as the Hajj or Umrah seasons, the city experiences an influx of pilgrims, leading to increased traffic congestion around religious sites and major roads.

This speed limit is meant to ensure the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users in populated areas. On non-urban roads, such as highways or major roads outside city limits, the speed limit is generally 100 km/h (62 mph). This higher speed limit allows faster travel on roads with fewer intersections and lower traffic density.

I received 2019 car (I expected to have 2020 or 2021 car) with almost empty fuel. So my first mission was to find a fuel station. Also, in the 4th day, the car battery has stopped. I tried calling the company until they finally sent someone to change the battery (after waiting around 2 hours). When I returned the car they told me there is a piece near the front wheels missing! Although I didn't do any accident! So I paid around 30$ for this as a penalty! I really had bad experience with this company.

First the vehicle I got from Enterprise. I waited at airport Madinah for car 5 hours. Eventhough I informed my landing at morning 4:30 I received th car at 11:30.. When renting there is no people can speaks English and even I told the return place and date different than reservation no one listened me. Also I told 100 times to arrange as full cover insurance but they didn’t do it. When return it Jeddah there is no office at airport “Incredible” and I return in the city and pay extra taxi fare 70riyals!! The Vehicle I return at Jeddah instead of Riyadh and 4 days earlier. There is no report or information about refund yet! Return point people also doesn’t speak English it was a hard experience. I rented the car Riyadh from Sixt because of this reason.
