Overview

Use the summer school break for a 12 night 3 star Umrah from Birmingham, with hotels chosen to keep walks short in the heat.

  • Travel during the summer school break

  • Makkah hotel: about 650 m, 10 to 12 minute walk
  • Guided Ziyarat included

This package is for pilgrims flying from Birmingham who want a well organised Umrah without surprises. You will spend 6 nights in Makkah and 6 nights in Madinah, starting in Makkah so you perform Umrah soon after arrival.

Both hotels are comfortable 3 star properties within walking distance. In Makkah the walk is usually 10 to 12 minutes, which most healthy adults manage easily for every prayer. Restaurants and shops are close by.

Summer in Makkah is very hot, often above 40°C in the afternoon. Most pilgrims perform Tawaf after Isha or before Fajr, and rest during the day. We keep the hotels close for that reason.

You can change the hotels or the number of nights. Use the request form on this page and tell us what you would like to adjust.
