How do I rent a wheelchair for Haji rituals?

Wheelchair rental services are widely available at Masjidil Haram. Authorized providers operate near the main entrances, offering manual wheelchairs and electric scooters for rental by the hour or by the ritual. For tawaf specifically, you can hire an operator to push you in a wheelchair around the Kabah — this typically costs 100-200 SAR per tawaf session, though prices fluctuate during peak Haji days.

The Haram administration also provides free wheelchair assistance through dedicated services for elderly and disabled jamaah haji. The mataf (tawaf area) has a designated wheelchair lane on the ground floor, and the upper floors are fully accessible via ramps and elevators. The sa'i corridor between Safa and Marwa is also wheelchair-accessible. In Mina and Arafah, wheelchair accessibility varies — discuss your specific needs with your Haji operator in advance to ensure proper arrangements.
