I rushed to the hop on stop after fair prayers to make it for the first bus at 6.30am. Ended up waiting till 7am. Didn't try to hop off as I was worried that is miss the next bus to hop on again as the service didn't seem to stick to the advertised schedule.

The bus is a great way to see all of the sights around Medina. The details don't detail this clearly but the 1st meeting point is at the clocktower by the mosque. The only negative was having to wait for up to an hour at one stop even though it states they run every 30 minutes from every stop.
