Transportation to Airport from Taif City Center
Taif Regional Airport
Buses are the most convenient option that you can choose to reach the airport from Taif city center. You can also get to the airport by taxi or by renting a car from the city center.
Bus
Direct buses to the airport depart from Al Taif Station in Taif Al Faisaliah. Local bus services operated by SAPTCO depart on short intervals. According to the current information in SAPTCO's web site the fare you will pay for this trip, which is about 30 kilometers, is 15 Saudi Riyals and it takes about 1 hour. You can make your reservation at the official website of SAPTCO or you can get your ticket from the sales points. It is also possible to buy tickets from almost every stop.
Taxi
You must absolutely have an agreement with the driver about the fare before you start your journey, if you are taking a taxi without a taximeter. Otherwise, you can pay really high fares. Taxis are the least preferred means of transportation by visitors of Taif, where there is not much alternatives in terms of transportation in the city.
Taxi fares are more expensive than other means of transportation. This is why we recommend you take advantage of the bus or car rental service instead of taxis. You should be careful about the taxi you take. In Taif, limousine taxis, for example, are also available and they are much more expensive than regular taxis.
Car Rental
There are car rental companies located in the city as well as in Taif Airport. Car rental companies are as popular as local buses, as the oil prices here are low. In additions, there are extremely modern highways in Taif that has links to all nearby cities. You can go to the airport with your vehicle rented from Taif city and deliver it to the same car rental company in the terminal.
Airport Information
Taif Airport, 70 kilometers from Mecca and 30 kilometers from Taif city center, is an airport suitable for international and domestic flights. You will not find much shops and similar entertainment areas at Taif Airport, which is smaller than other airports in Saudi Arabia with regard to area and capacity.
Taif Airport is of great importance for the history of Saudi aviation. The first one to land this airport was Ibn Saud, the founder of the kingdom. It is an airport used both for military and public purposes.
In the terminal you can find a small parking area for cars and the offices of most preferred car rental companies throughout Saudi Arabia. You can also see bus stops and taxi stands, from where you can take a bus or taxi to Taif city center, at a short distance from the terminal exit.
The airport interior design is not too complicated as there is not much to do inside the airport. Several major airline companies, including Turkish Airlines, organize flights to Taif Airport.
Transportation to Adareil City Center from Airport
Adareil Airport
For transportation to Adareil, you can fly to the Khartoum International Airport, which hosts regular flights to and from many destinations. The transportation options are extremely limited in Khartoum, the capital and second largest city of Sudan. In order to get to Adareil from the capital, you can take a taxi at the airport and go to the bus terminal that is only a few kilometers away. There you can take a bus to reach directly to Adareil. You can also take advantage of taking a taxi at Khartoum International Airport to reach Adareil directly, but please keep in mind that this will be much more expensive compared to intercity bus services.
Taxi
Taxi is the first choice of visitors since there is no public transport from Khartoum International Airport to reach Adareil city center directly. You can arrive at the bus terminal in a very short time by taking a taxi from the airport, which is located in a very central area of the capital, and then you can take an intercity bus in the Adareil direction from the terminal. You can also prefer to reach Adareil directly by taxi. However, the taxi ride from Khartoum to Adareil would be a costly alternative. The taxi ride from the airport to Khartoum city center will cost around 20-30$.
Bus
You can go out of the airport terminal and take one of the local buses and minibusses passing by, so you can get to Khartoum city center cheaper. However, this may sound highly complicated to the visitors who are not familiar with the city because they may lose their sense of direction easily. Once you reach Khartoum city center by bus, you may need to take a bus or taxi once again to get to the bus terminal, where you will get on the bus to Adareil.
The bus ride in the city is often considered safe during the day, but you should be more careful about your safety at night. If your budget is not very limited, you can enjoy a fast and safe trip by choosing the taxi option instead of the bus ride.
Rent a car
After landing at Khartoum International Airport, you can also take advantage of renting a car to reach Adareil as another alternative. The passengers who would especially like to make a stop at different points on the road and make a flexible travel plan can rent a car in Khartoum to reach Adareil without thinking too much. When it comes to disadvantages of car rental option, one can say that the direction signs in Sudan are mostly very complicated and difficult to understand. If you have never been to the area before and if you are planning to travel by car for the first time, you are recommended to put car rental option aside and get on a bus to the terminal for bus transfer to Adareil.
Private Transfer Services
The use of private transfer service is not particularly common on this route. However, if you are traveling to Adareil for an event or organization, you can arrange a private transfer service vehicle for yourself by getting assistance from local officials and guides. The private transfer service, much more comfortable and safer than buses, will make your trip to Sudan much easier. You can take advantage of this service just to get to the bus terminal from Khartoum International Airport as well. To do so, you should inform the service company of your arrival time in advance and you may have to wait for a while in front of the terminal building. If you want to travel without waiting, you can take a taxi at the terminal exit of Khartoum International Airport.
