Clear Quotes with Nothing Hidden
Every quote sets out what is included: flights, hotel nights in each city, room type, meal basis, transfers and visa support. If something is not included, such as ziyarat tours or extra baggage, we tell you before you book, not after.
Flexible Ways to Pay
TravelApp UK offers instalment options, Klarna and Fly Now Pay Later on eligible bookings.

See our payment policy and our guide to book now, pay later holidays and deposit schemes for how this works.
Umrah Package Options from the UK
Packages are built around three hotel standards. The hotels below are examples of properties often included in UK Umrah packages; availability and room types change through the year, and walking times depend on which gate of the mosque you use. TravelApp UK confirms the exact hotel, distance and room before you pay.
Package tier | Typical Makkah hotels | Typical Madinah hotels | Distance to the Haram | Best suited to |
3-star Economy | Hotels in the Ajyad and Misfalah areas | Hotels in the Markazia area | Usually 500 metres to 1 km, some with a shuttle | Budget-conscious pilgrims and longer stays |
4-star Comfort | Hotels such as Al Ghufran Safwah or Elaf Kinda | Hotels such as Dar Al Hijra InterContinental | Usually a short walk, often under 500 metres | Families and first-time pilgrims |
5-star Haram View | Hotels such as Swissôtel Makkah, Swissôtel Al Maqam or Fairmont Makkah Clock Royal Tower | Hotels such as Anwar Al Madinah Mövenpick or Pullman Zamzam Madinah | Next to the Haram complex, with Kaaba or Haram view rooms on request | Elderly pilgrims, those with limited mobility and special occasions |
3-Star Economy Umrah Packages from the UK
Economy packages keep the cost down while still placing you within reach of the Haram. Hotels are typically in established areas such as Ajyad and Misfalah in Makkah, with a walk of around 10 to 15 minutes or a hotel shuttle. Rooms are simple and clean, and sharing options for three or four people can lower the price per person further.
4-Star Comfort Umrah Packages with TravelApp UK
Comfort packages suit families and first-time pilgrims who want a shorter walk after each prayer. Hotels in this tier are usually within a few minutes of the mosque, with breakfast included and larger family rooms available. Tell TravelApp UK who is travelling with you, and we will suggest rooms that keep your family together.
5-Star Haram View Umrah Packages from the UK
For pilgrims who want to be as close as possible, Haram view packages place you in hotels attached to or facing the Masjid al-Haram. Some rooms look directly onto the Kaaba, which many pilgrims value for elderly parents or for a once-in-a-lifetime trip. View rooms are limited and are confirmed at the time of booking.
Not Sure Which Package Suits You?
What Is Included in a TravelApp UK Umrah Package
Most of our Umrah packages from the UK include:
- Return flights from a UK airport to Jeddah or Madinah, with the cabin baggage and checked baggage set out in your quote
- Hotel nights in Makkah and Madinah, in the order and split you choose
- Transfers between the airport, Makkah and Madinah
- Help with your visa application
- Meal basis as stated in the quote, usually room only or breakfast
Optional extras include ziyarat tours of historic sites in Makkah and Madinah, the Haramain high-speed train between the two cities and room upgrades. Tell TravelApp UK which extras matter to you, and we will price them clearly alongside the rest of your package.
Travel insurance is not included as standard. We strongly recommend it, and our guide to travel insurance in the UK explains what to look for.
Flying from the UK to Saudi Arabia for Umrah
Direct flights to Jeddah run from London, and connecting flights are available from Manchester, Birmingham and other UK airports. Some pilgrims prefer to fly into Madinah first and finish in Makkah, while others start in Makkah. Tell TravelApp UK your preferred airport and route, and we will compare the options for you. Our guide to direct versus connecting flights explains the trade-offs.
Men who are travelling directly to Makkah often enter ihram before or during the flight, so it helps to know when your flight passes the miqat. We will talk you through this when you book.
Preparing for Umrah from the UK
Visas and Umrah Permits
British citizens can usually perform Umrah on a Saudi tourist eVisa, applied for through the official Visit Saudi eVisa portal. You also need a permit for Umrah, booked through the official Nusuk platform. Rules and dates change, particularly around the Hajj season, so always check the latest position before you travel.
Passports and Documents
Your passport should be valid for at least 6 months from the date you arrive in Saudi Arabia. If yours is close to expiry, see how long a UK passport renewal takes, and use our checklist of documents needed to travel abroad.
Health and Vaccinations
Saudi Arabia requires pilgrims to show proof of meningococcal ACWY vaccination. The UK Health Security Agency has urged Hajj and Umrah pilgrims to get the meningitis vaccine, and the TravelHealthPro Hajj and Umrah factsheet sets out current health advice. Speak to your GP or a travel clinic well before you fly.
Official Travel Advice
Read the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's advice for pilgrims to Saudi Arabia before you book and again before you travel.
Protecting Yourself from Umrah Fraud
Every year some UK pilgrims lose money to fake Hajj and Umrah operators. The government's Hajj fraud leaflet explains the warning signs, and our guide on how to spot a fake travel agency online covers the checks to make before you pay anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions about Umrah Packages from the UK
Quick answers to common questions. Reach out if you need more help.
Yes, eligible Umrah packages that include flights receive an ATOL Certificate. TravelApp UK is an ATOL holder, and eligible flight bookings receive an ATOL Certificate. This means that if a protected company fails, you will not be left stranded abroad or out of pocket for the protected parts of your booking. Always check that your ATOL Certificate is issued when you book, and you can verify any company on the CAA's ATOL checker.
Most Umrah packages from the UK include return flights, hotels in Makkah and Madinah, transfers and visa support. Meal basis varies by hotel, and is usually room only or breakfast rather than full board. Ziyarat tours, train tickets between Makkah and Madinah, and travel insurance are often extras. TravelApp UK lists exactly what is included in every quote.
Saudi Arabia no longer requires women to travel with a mahram to perform Umrah. Women can apply for a visa and book an Umrah permit in their own right. Some women choose to travel in an organised group for practical support, and views among scholars differ, so many pilgrims also seek religious guidance. Check the latest rules on the Nusuk platform before you book, and tell TravelApp UK if you would like to join a group or travel with family members.
Many Saudi tourist eVisa applications from British citizens are decided within a few days, and some within minutes. Processing times are not guaranteed, and delays can happen at busy times of year. Apply well before your travel date, make sure your passport has at least 6 months' validity, and book your Umrah permit through Nusuk once your visa is approved. TravelApp UK can guide you through each step.
Yes, you can choose a different hotel standard in each city. Many pilgrims pick a Haram view hotel in Makkah and a comfort hotel in Madinah, or the other way round, and choose how many nights to spend in each. Tell TravelApp UK your priorities and budget, and we will build the combination that suits you.
