A 5 minute drive is 10 riyals, which is the customary minimum charge that taxis accept.

Is it 2 separate one-way trips, or a round trip all together at the same time? If former, then 20, if latter, you can get it for 15.

You could ask for a monthly fare. Ask the driver.

Hello,

The rule of thumb is to pay by minutes. For instance, 10 minutes distance=10 SAR, 20 minutes=20 SAR and the minimum is 10 SAR even if the distance is less than 10 minutes. I sometimes take a taxi from DQ to Panorama mall, Riyadh Gallery, Hayat mall & Kingdom @20 SAR. Negotiate before you take a taxi. Hope this is helpful.
