Makkah to Madinah in a clean Innova with a rest stop at Badr. The driver spoke Urdu, stopped at Miqat on the way back and never asked for extra.
As a woman travelling alone I booked the female driver option from Madinah Airport. She was professional, punctual and the booking took two WhatsApp messages.
Driver was waiting at Terminal 1 with our name, helped with six suitcases and we reached our hotel near the Haram in 80 minutes. Fare was exactly what was quoted on WhatsApp.
