North Riyadh has grown faster than any other part of the capital. New districts, the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD), big universities and the road to King Khalid International Airport all sit here, and the distances between them are best covered by car. Sajil has three branches in the north, so you rarely have to cross the city to pick up your car.
Sajil branches in north Riyadh
- Al Arid branch on King Abdulaziz Road, for the far-north districts such as Al Arid, Al Narjis and Al Yasmin.
- Al Aqiq branch on the King Fahd Road service road, close to KAFD and the offices along King Fahd Road.
- Al Maseef branch on Abu Bakr Al Siddiq Road near exit 6, between the northern ring road and the city centre.
Each branch page shows the cars that branch really has today. To compare all of them, open car rental in Riyadh.
Arriving at King Khalid International Airport?
Sajil does not have a counter inside the airport. The north Riyadh branches are the closest to it: Al Arid and Al Aqiq are usually a 20 to 30 minute ride from the terminals, depending on traffic. Book your car before you land, then take a taxi or ride-hailing car to the branch. For a long stay this is often far cheaper than airport counter prices.
Which car for north Riyadh?
- Office commute to KAFD or King Fahd Road: a quiet sedan like the Hyundai Accent or Geely Emgrand.
- Families in the new districts: the Geely Coolray or the 7-seat Okavango for school runs and weekend outings.
- Guests and business visitors: the Ford Taurus or Chevrolet Tahoe.
Daily, weekly or monthly?
Many north Riyadh customers are new employees waiting for their own car or company car. For them monthly rental in Riyadh costs far less than daily rental, with 3 and 6 month packages that save more. For a short visit choose daily rental.
Tips for driving in north Riyadh
- King Fahd Road and the northern ring road are busiest from 7 to 9 in the morning and 4 to 6 in the afternoon.
- Many new districts have speed bumps and roundabouts; keep to the posted limits, as cameras are common.
- Riyadh Season and big events in the north can close roads at night, so check your route before you go.
