Hello, I have just retruned by car this sunday. I went to Makkah first and then returned from Madina to Doha. While going, after Riyadh, there are big sign bords giving you the option of either to go towards Makkah or Medina so till Riyadh its the same. I started at 11.30 am in the morning and by 7 I touched Riydh. Approximately after 650 kms from Saudi border, you'll find lots of rest rooms / hotel on the right hand side of the road where you can stay for 5 to 6 hours. We started next morning at 5.30 am and reached Meeqat at arnd 12 noon. Mekkah to MEdina is arnd 400 kms, very nice roads and should not be a problem. On my way bak from Medina, I didnt stayed at Riyad and reached Doha in one go after arnd 15 hrs of almost non-stop driving. There are boards every where to help so I dont think you require any maps.
