Taif Islamic Ziyarat Tour
⏱ Half day · Up to 4
The Taif Islamic Ziyarat tour is a half-day private-car trip from Makkah (about 90 km, 1.5-2 hours each way) to Masjid Addas, Masjid Abdullah ibn Abbas and Wadi Waj — from around SAR 350 per sedan, with the mosques free to enter.
A private-car Ziyarat to the highland city of Taif, about 90 km from Makkah. Visit Masjid Addas, by the orchard where — after the people of Taif rejected the Prophet and drove him out — a servant named Addas offered him grapes and accepted Islam; the historic Masjid Abdullah ibn Abbas, named after the Prophet's cousin and long a centre of Islamic learning; and Wadi Waj. The mosques are free to enter; the price covers your private vehicle and driver, and many pilgrims pair the visit with Taif's rose farms or mountain viewpoints.
Operated by Wadana Go. Your own vehicle and an English-, Arabic- or Urdu-speaking driver for the whole group — the price is per vehicle, so it doesn’t change with the number of passengers. See our transport rates

FAQ
It marks the area where, after the people of Taif rejected the Prophet and drove him out, a servant named Addas brought him grapes; hearing him say Bismillah, Addas recognised his truth and embraced Islam — one of the tender moments of the Seerah.
Yes — the Ziyarat pairs well with the Al Hada cable car, the rose farms in spring or the Al Shafa viewpoints, since all lie close together in the cool Taif highlands.
