Private AlUla to Tabuk taxi from 600 SR per vehicle – roughly 295-320 km and about 3-3.5 hours across the north-west desert highway. Fixed, all-inclusive fares, door-to-door, licensed chauffeur, available 24/7. There is no dependable ride-hailing in AlUla, so the car is reserved in advance for your departure time.
All fares are fixed per-vehicle and all-inclusive: licensed chauffeur, fuel, tolls, VAT, bottled water and pickup from your hotel, apartment, Airbnb or AlUla Airport (ULH). The return column is the one-way fare less 20 percent, available when you book the return inside an 8-hour window. If the wait runs past that window, waiting time is charged per hour at the rate shown for your vehicle. Heritage entry tickets are not included and are bought by you at the official price.

AlUla to Tabuk runs roughly 295-320 km north across the north-west desert, about 3-3.5 hours door-to-door. The road is sealed and fast for much of the run, crossing open Harrat volcanic desert and long empty stretches between settlements, so fuel and phone signal can both be intermittent. Exact distance varies with your pickup point – Old Town, a resort gate and AlUla Airport (ULH) all sit at slightly different points on the route. A complimentary desert-view rest and photography stop is available on request.
