Distance and Journey Time
Central Jeddah to Makkah is about 80 km via Highway 40. The drive usually takes 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, depending on where you are in Jeddah and on traffic near the Haram.
On Fridays, in Ramadan and during peak Umrah season, roads into Makkah are busier, so allow extra time if you want to reach the Haram before a prayer.
